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
A vmx image is the same disk as an oem just without the dracut
repart/resize feature. This difference is better handled with
an oemconfig parameter <oem-resize> which allows to switch resize
on or off. The extra image type vmx will be dropped and an XSLT
stylesheet automatically transforms a vmx description to be a
oem image with the resize feature switched off.
This Fixes#1425
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
The bootloader settings are handled through attributes in the
type element. Over the years some attributes were added and
there are requests for more settings. Therefore the bootloader
setup deservers its own section. With this commit the schema
changes from v7.1 to v7.2 and moves bootloader, bootloader_console
boottimeout and zipl_targettype into a new bootloader subsection
below type. The commit also adds an auto transformation template
such that customers don't have to change their image descriptions.
