* debian/patches/add-root-tar-support.patch: Add support for root-tar images for backwards compatiblity for nova-lxd (LP: #1569289). -- Chuck Short <zul...@ubuntu.com> Wed, 13 Apr 2016 10:13:40 -0400 ** Changed in: glance (Ubuntu) Status: New => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yahoo! Engineering Team, which is subscribed to Glance. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1569289 Title: glance should support the root-tar disk format Status in Glance: New Status in glance package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: 'root-tar' (indicating a root filesystem in tar archive format) has been used for full system containers in OpenStack both under the libvirt/lxc driver and under the new lxd driver (nova-lxd package). Users are working around the lack of 'root-tar' default support in glance by uploading images in this format as 'raw' (which is incorrect) or updating the list of supported disk formats using the glance-api configuration file to include 'root-tar'. We should consider adding this to the list of defaults for supported disk formats.
