An update that has eight fixes can now be installed.

Description:

This update for autoyast2, yast2-storage-ng and libstorage-ng provides the following fixes:

Fixes in autoyast2:

  • Fix 'autoyast' and 'clone_system' command line interfaces (bsc#1172548):
  • autoyast: Add a list-modules command to list all known modules.
  • autoyast: Display the correct client name in the help text.
  • autoyast: 'file' and 'module' command are now equivalent. Both of them support setting 'filename' and 'modname' arguments.
  • clone_system: Add a 'filename' option instead of always using '/root/autoinst.xml'.
  • clone_system: Move the logic to find the clonable modules.
  • Move pre-scripts to the autoinit client running them just after the profile has been processed. (bsc#1110413)
  • Do not remove interfaces configuration by default when there is not networking section defined in the profile. (bsc#1173793)
  • Export ntp_policy as CDATA so that empty strings are preserved for the second_stage. (bsc#1172026)
  • Saving log files of postpartitioning-scripts. (bsc#1145269)

Fixes in yast2-storage-ng and libstorage-ng:

  • Fixed detection of shadowed subvolumes for roles using separate LVM volume groups for each filesystem. (bsc#1174475)
  • AutoinstProposal now properly reports the proposal as failed when it fails to find the disks. (bsc#1174469)
  • AutoYaST: do not append a suffix to LVM Volume Group names unless it is needed. (bsc#1115749)
