This allows Chrome OS users, on supported to install normal Linux applications from the Debian repository and have them integrate with the underlying Chrome OS desktop. The feature has evolved quite a bit since its introductio

Introduction Another week of bugfixes for us as more and more people update to the 3.0 releases! Quite a bit of work went into improving the handling of the two database in LXD 3.0, making it easier for us to debug issues and provide fixes to our users when something goes wrong. Work is also

Introduction This week’s focus was on bugfixes with a good number of clustering related fixes and improvements as well as some tweaks and fixes to other recently added features.

Introduction As this was the week following our major 3.0 release, we’ve been very actively working on early bug reports and sorting out packaging for this in the distros. This led to quite a number of bugfixes being done, issues investigated and a large number of updates to our snap and Debian packages for the

Introduction The highlight for this week is the release of LXD, LXC and LXCFS 3.0! Those 3 releases are LTS releases and will be supported for the next 5 years. The relevant release announcements can be found here: LXD 3.0 LXC 3.0 LXCFS 3.0 We’d like to thank every one of our contributors who made

Introduction This week we released another LXD beta and two LXC betas. We also made good progress replacing the command line parser in LXD, finishing the port of the lxd command line tool with only lxc left to port at this point. Remote copy and move of storage volume was completed and merged in LXD,

Introduction The focus for this week was on CEPH and LXD clustering, trying to get the last few remaining pieces to work together properly. We’ve tagged a couple more betas as we went through that. We’ve also spent a good chunk of time getting Ubuntu and Debian images to switch over to distrobuilder. They’re now

Introduction This past week the LXD team was meeting in Budapest, Hungary. We spent most of our times working on a number of issues targeted at the final 3.0 releases. @freeekanayaka worked with @stgraber to track down an fix a testing regression on s390x, then worked on CEPH support in LXD clustering as well as

Introduction So this past week was rather intense, in a nutshell, we’ve: Merged LXD clustering support Split python3-lxc, lua-lxc and lxc-templates out of the LXC codebase Moved libpam-cgfs from lxcfs to lxc Released 3.0.0 beta1 of python3-lxc and lxc-templates Released 3.0.0 beta1 of lxcfs Released 3.0.0 beta1 of lxc Released 3.0.0 beta1

Introduction This past week we’ve been working very hard to land all those last few bits ahead of us tagging a number of 3.0.0.beta1 releases of all our repositories. We’re now waiting for a few last bits to land, including LXD clustering and some reshuffling of templates, bindings and tools in LXC. The current plan

Introduction This past week we’ve been focusing on a number of open pull requests, getting closer to merging improvements to our storage volume handling, unix char/block devices handling and the massive clustering branch that’s been cooking for a while. We’re hoping to see most of those land at some point this coming week. On the

On top of all that, we’ve

Weekly status for the week of the 29th of January to the 5th of February 2018. Introduction This past week, the entire LXD team was meeting in Brussels to work together for a few days ahead of FOSDEM. During those days, we’ve been looking into our short and long term plans, worked together on our

The focus of this week has been preparing for our trip to Brussels where we’ll be spending 3 days all working together on LXD before attending and presenting at FOSDEM. @brauner is making good progress on preparing for the liblxc 3.0 release, moving all the various language bindings and tools out of the main tree

Introduction Nothing too major happened this past week.
