** Description changed:
Binary package hint: landscape-client
Landscape Client 1.4.0 has been released. We would like to get these
changes into Karmic, Intrepid and Jaunty. The required pieces of
information for a SRU follow (as laid out in the "Procedure" section of
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates).
=== Statement explaining the impact ===
New features have been developed since the versions of Landscape Client
that are currently in Intrepid, Jaunty and Karmic. We would like to make
sure all of our supported customers (even those on Intrepid and Jaunty
and Karmic) have access to these features. The notable ones are:
1) Support for release upgrades. From the Landscape web UI, it's now
possible to issue a system upgrade between to subsequent Ubuntu releases
(e.g. from jaunty to karmic), which will be performed using the regular
update-manager code in non-interactive mode.
2) Report Smart locking information. The client will now report the
server about Smart locks set on the system, which the Landscape UI is
going to display with a special icon.
3) Several bug fixes which improve the overall user experience.
