Debian Fun in November 2016
9th December 2016
Debian LTS
November marked the nineteenth month I contributed to Debian LTS under the Freexian umbrella. I had 7 hours allocated which I used completely by:
- Being at LTS frontdesk twice (at the beginning and end of November) triaging about ~30 CVEs.
- Preparing and releasing DLA-698-1 for QEMU fixing 9 CVEs
- Putting out DLA-699-1 for xen, the acutal xen update was prepared by Bastian Blank
Other Debian stuff
- Usual bunch of libvirt and related uploads (osinfo-db-tools, libvirt-python, libosinfo)
- Sponsored svn2git upload
- Uploaded git-buildpackage 0.8.7 to unstable (list of changes)
Some other Free Software activites
- Created foreman_influxdb: a plugin to forward foreman metrics to influxdb
- Released of first version of ldapsp: a Foreman realm smartproxy to create arbitrary LDAP entries
- Fixed updating compute resources in ansible-module-foreman
- Fixed a bug in fog-vsphere that would make massive parallel vm creation in Foreman fail
- Helped to update influxdb-rails so the gem is compatible with influxdb-ruby again.
