This marks our v1.0 release! There are no substantial changes here that decided for a 1.0 release. Instead, this has been a long time coming where we have thought about the stability of convert2rhel and when to make the major version jump. We will now follow a major.minor version flow where every new major version we do will include breaking changes to the previous version.

Changes in this version include:

Enhancements

  • Checking if a new version of convert2rhel is available (#415)
  • Updating GRUB2 bootloader images (#417)
  • Warning if multiple authentication sources are specified (#451)
  • Improved log messages (#501, #499, #458)

Security hardening

  • Introduced a user-customizable config file for passing RHSM credentials safely (#451, #562)
  • Using dbus API for RHSM registration to safely pass the activation key (#540)
  • Verifying GPG key for UBI and CentOS 6 Linux repositories (#505)

Deprecation

  • Deprecated -f --password-from-file parameter option (#451)

Bug fixes

  • Fixed logging error with unavailable RHSM certificate (#447)
  • Fixed gnome-documents-libs package conflict (#554)
  • Fixed handling shim-x64 package protection on non-UEFI systems (#553)
  • Fixed unknown tag in an rpm query (#389, #424)
  • Clearing yum cache before first yum call (#398)
  • Added missing eus_rhsm_repoids key into OS 6 config files (#539)
  • Fixed Ansible playbook example for CentOS Linux 8 conversions (#534)
