Hi,
I've uploaded 3.0.0-1 to experimental. Thanks to the Ubuntu folks
who did the necessary packaging updates!
I don't plan to upload 3.0 into Debian unstable: given the release
notes read "AppArmor 3.0 will be a short lived release, and will not
receive long term support", I don't want to maintain it in Debian
stable for 3 years (or even 5 if you include Debian LTS).
We may or may not ship 3.1 in Debian 11 (Bullseye).
It will depend on:
- the relative timing of the future AppArmor 3.1 release
and the upcoming Debian [freeze]
- whether policy shipped outside of src:apparmor satisfies the
requirements of 3.1 (I understand 3.1 will require the declaration
of a features ABI in every profile, but I may have misunderstood
this part; please correct me if needed!)
One way to make it happen is to start updating those profiles:
https://gitlab.com/apparmor/apparmor/-/wikis/AppArmorpolicyfeaturesabi
- how confident we are in 3.x
One way to increase this confidence is for enthusiastic folks, who
have the AppArmor know-how to track down problems and send
actionable bug reports, to start using 3.0 ASAP. So, if you're
running testing/sid, please try it out:
Package: src:apparmor
Pin: release a=experimental, o=Debian
Pin-Priority: 990
:)
[freeze] https://release.debian.org/
Cheers!
