Release 4.0.0

This new major release adds an official C++ and C API along with a D-Bus interface. The release is API, but not ABI compatible with previous releases; existing applications will have to be recompiled against this new version.

The detailed Changelog compared to version 3.6.2 (see the NEWS file for changes since the last release candidate):

  • Implement C++ interface for listing Snapshots
  • Implement Reboot interface
  • Introduces a C binding via libtukit.h.
  • Introduces a D-Bus service to access the libtukit API via the org.opensuse.tukit.Transaction and org.opensuse.tukit.Snapshot interfaces
  • Use separate mount namespace for chroot, allowing overwriting the bind mounts from the update environment - this could have lead to data loss of the bind mount previously
  • t-u: Rework --quiet handling to make sure no output is shown even in error cases; this is necessary for automation, e.g. with Salt.
  • tukit: Allow storing command output into variable by introducing a new optional parameter for "execute" and "callExt".
  • Replace multiple and non-standalone occurenses of {} in "callExt" argument.
  • Split transactional-update.timer into transactional-update.timer and transactional-update-cleanup.timer; the later will clean up old snapshots even when the system does not do automatic updates.
  • tukit: Remove legacy alias "setDiscard" for "setDiscardIfUnchanged".
  • Throw exception if snapshot is not found.
  • Add output of tukit commands to log file
  • create_dirs_from_rpmdb: set SELinux file context of missing directories [gh##84], [bsc#1197242]
  • Fix broken logrotate due to typo in config file [gh##87]
  • create_dirs_from_rpmdb: Fix handling return code of create_dirs() [gh##86]
  • Fix compilation error with GCC12 [boo#1194876]
  • Fix wrong sort order in status command [gh##80]
  • Fix bug when using --continue on old snapshots
  • Fix various compiler warnings
  • Code cleanup

  • Bind mount root file system snapshot on itself, this makes the temporary directory in /tmp unnecessary; also fixes [boo#1188110] to return the correct snapshot's working directory via API call.
  • Use separate mount namespace for transactional-update; this should fix several applications that fail to run if a mount point has the 'unbindable' mount flag set
