In progress: snapd 2.26.9

Submitted https://github.com/snapcore/snapd/pull/3285

The 2.26 release is available in the beta core snap now.

The 2.26 release is now also available on github and got uploaded to {trusty,xenial,yakkety,zesty,artful}-proposed.

A new 2.26.1 release was is in progress. The main reasons are:

2.26.1 is now available in the beta core snap and also uploaded to {trusty,xenial,yakkety,zesty}-proposed (waiting for approval) and to artful.

The core snap got updated to snapd 2.26.2. The only change is an update to the uboot.env handling to fix a crash for certain uboot.env files. It is only relevant for the uboot based devices. @fgimenez please run the beta validation with the new core from beta. A nice side-effect of the update is also that the version number of snapd now shows in snap info core :slight_smile:

The core snap got updated to snapd 2.26.3. No code changes, just test updates for:

  • change in the snap info core output, the new core displays a richer version number now
  • the log-observer-consumer test had to be updated because we do not ship rsyslog on the image anymore

Please run the tests again on those @fgimenez

2.25 hasn’t been promoted yet to stable due to aa problem found Snapd 2.25 blocked because of revert race condition as soon as it is unblocked 2.26 can be promoted to candidate.

A new 2.26.4 got released that fixes the issue outlined in Snapd 2.25 blocked because of revert race condition

@mvo “got released” means it is in stable, candidate or beta or just tagged in github? :slight_smile:

Ups, sorry! It means “got tagged on github” :slight_smile:

The promotion to candidate has been done and the call for testing has been sent Call for testing: core snap 16-2.25, the manual checks performed by the snapd team at this stage will take us 1 additional day.

Thanks! We’re waiting it to be released. I can confirm that timezone interface fix worked fine.

Unfortunately this release is also stuck right now because of Snapd 2.25 blocked because of revert race condition - we have a PR that should fix the issue under review, once that lands we can proceed with 2.26.

A new 2.26.6 release is available now and is available in the beta channel.
