Development plans for PLD 3.0 (Th)
Software updates
| Software | Progress | Comments |
|---|---|---|
| BerkeleyDB 5.3 | 100% | Now in Th, previous BDB 4.7 is still available to ease upgrade |
| rpm 5.4.x | 99% | in th-ready, all regressions should be fixed now |
| perl 5.16.x | 10% | main package builds, migration pending rpm5 |
| apache 2.4.x | 1% | changes to .spec made in master branch |
| texlive 2012 | ?? | work in progress |
System wide changes
- full systemd support (provide systemd units, but still support SysV scripts - at least until vserver will be able to run systemd)
- drop *-initrd packages, building them is becoming a RPITA, and the net gain is not worth the pain
- grsecurity support in our kernels will be dropped, until someone volunteers to keep that patch up-to-date
- kernel 3.4.x will become the new -longterm
