<p>An update that has two fixes can now be installed.</p>
<h2>Description:</h2>
<p>This update for warewulf4 fixes the following issues:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>Warewulf was updated to version 4.5.0:</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Disks, partitions and file systems can set in the configration
and if ignition is present in the container, changes to the disks will be
made</p>
</li>
<li>Grub can be used as alternative boot method instead of iPXE. The
grub binairy is extracted from the container and shim is executed before
the grub. This enables secure boot</li>
<li>wwctl has now the genconfig subcommand which will print/create
valid configurations</li>
<li>
<p>All paths e.g the overlay dir, can now be configured in warewulf.conf</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Notable bug fixes:</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Fixed a bug where profile tags were erroneously overridden by empty node
values.</p>
</li>
<li>Fixed bug where tags from profiles weren't rendered.</li>
<li>
<p>All configuration overlays now live in <code>/var/lib/warewulf4/overlays</code>.
The overlay templates now reside under <code>rootfs</code> in each top level
directory. This allows the overlays to be maintained in git repositories
without risk of including git meta information into the node images.</p>
<p>When updating the package, an attempt will be made to move all added
or modified overlay templates to this directory. After an update, check
whether <code>/usr/share/warewulf/overlays</code> still exists and what files
have remained and move these manually.
* Aarch64 compute nodes boot properly, now (bsc#1221133).
* Package Changes:</p>
<ul>
<li><code>dnsmasq</code> may be used instead of the ISC <code>dhcpd</code>. Specify <code>dnsmasq</code>
as package to install when installing <code>warewulf4</code>:</li>
</ul>
<p><code>zypper in warewulf4 dnsmasq</code></p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Client configuration example templates have been moved to the package
documentation.</p>
</li>
<li>Sub-package dependencies got fixed to avoid mixing package components
from different versions.</li>
<li>The script generating ssh keys for users now perperly identifies
1000 as the minimal user UID (boo#1221886).</li>
</ul>
