  • Status Updates
    • 4.20 was released - Katello 4.20.0 is now available - #2 by Zhunting
    • No releases planned at the moment
    • Katello folks would like to handle (small) Katello releases within a given X.Y series - Z-streams.
      • Release engineers to make sure we have up-to-date procedures in the foreman-rel-eng to reduce ambiguity.
      • Katello folks can start anytime they want :slight_smile:

Katello 4.19


Pulp Integration

  • Current Status
    • We expect backports to pulp-container due to postquantum crypto support
      • It’s Rust. We need to vendor stuff
    • Katello 4.21 to be updated to pulpcore 3.105
      • Odilon is cleaning noisy PRs in pulpcore-packaging; we’re ready to branch. Maybe next week?
      • We’ll need a new Postgres with 3.105 because of Django 5
        • We confirmed with Candlepin - Candlepin should work with the new Postgres
        • We need to test whether migrations work as expected

Pulp.next

  • We don’t know when Pulp 4 is going to be released, yet (Django 5)
