The console attribute in the bootloader section was used to
target both, output and input console setup using a space separator.
However, there can be multiple consoles specified for output
and input consoles and that turns the idea to handle both in
one attribute into a mess. This commit drops the console attribute
and offers two new attributes output_console and input_console which
can define multiple consoles each using space as a separator.
For example:
<bootloader ... output_console="console serial" input_console="console"/>
This change comes with a schema version bump to v8.4
An automatic XSL transformation template for the old console
attribute into the new output_console and input_console
attributes is also part of this commit.
This Fixes#2886
With dnf5 there is a successor for dnf but there will also
be a transition period where there will be both, the former
dnf and the new dnf5 available. For a clear distinction
between the two we got the recommendation from the RedHat
team to support both in different namespaces. This commit
now implements a backward compatible change for kiwi which
includes the following modifications:
* XSL stylesheet for automatic schema transformation from
<packagemanager>dnf</packagemanager> to
<packagemanager>dnf4</packagemanager>
* Code copy of dnf API interface from
PackageManagerDnf -> PackageManagerDnf4
RepositoryDnf -> RepositoryDnf4
* Deprecation of former Dnf API interface
The code change here will force developers to adapt
their code if they used RepositoryDnf / PackageManagerDnf
classes in their python code. After this change developers
will be dropped into a raise condition which exits kiwi
at the time of the call. Related to Issue #2300
and Issue #2262
Before this commit an oem image still had the kiwi initrd_system
set as default. As we are decommission the custom kiwi initrd
concept the default should be changed. It is still possible to
use a custom kiwi initrd but it needs to be explicitly requested
via the initrd_system="kiwi" attribute. In addition to the
changed default a runtime check was introduced that checks
the presence of the boot= attribute which only makes sense
in combination with the kiwi initrd_system. If boot= is
set but initrd_system="kiwi" is not, a message is raised that
explains the situation and either requests setting initrd_system
properly or deleting the boot attribute. The change only
affects people who still use oem with a boot="oemboot/..."
setting and no explicit selection of kiwi as the initrd_system.
As these image type configurations should not be in use anyway
because this is all legacy and announced to go away, we
need to make the next step and enforce a new default in
code. This is related to Issue #1299
