Installation & Upgrade

Installation instructions can be found in the Pulp User Guide at the Pulp project web site.

As usual, upgraded environments must run pulp-migrate to upgrade to the latest database changes.

M2Crypto

Pulp now provides a patched version of m2crypto (m2crypto-0.21.1.pulp-3.*.rpm). The changes within are required for the newly added certificate revocation list support. The RPM can be found in the Pulp repositories along side the rest of the Pulp RPMs.

Enhancements

  • Certificate revocation lists (CRLs) are now available for protected repositories. CRLs can be installed on a per-CA basis as necessary given the authenticated repository setup. Instructions for configuring a Pulp server to use a CRL can be found in the Repository Authentication section of the user guide.
  • Support has been added for installing a package group to a consumer group.
  • Custom metadata types can now be removed from existing repository metadata (only in Fedora 14 and 15; RHEL support requires a change to createrepo that is in progress).
