v0.21.2

Fixes:

v0.21.1

Changes:

• util-linux version 2.36 or higher is now required. See the "Upstream tools' requirements" section of the manual for details.
• MOTD messages generated by console-login-helper-messages (e.g. console-login-helper-messages-gensnippet-os-release.service) will now be displayed upon login through the serial console as well (previously only displayed upon login via ssh).
• console-login-helper-messages will no longer support displaying issue files and MOTD files that are dropped in its private directories.

Fixes:

• Fixes an issue where MOTDs are not displayed in newer versions of pam (since pam 1.4.0-6).

v0.19

Added:

• gensnippet-os-release.service and gensnippet-ssh-keys.service units are split out from issuegen and motdgen. These units must be enabled for OS release information and SSH keys information to be displayed in the MOTD and issue, respectively.
• -issuegen.path and -motdgen.path are now the only triggers to run the -issuegen.service and -motdgen.service units and must be enabled for displaying issue and MOTD messages. console-login-helper-messages-issuegen.service and console-login-helper-messages-motdgen.service units no longer need to be enabled.
• Kola tests for testing basic functionality.
• Development scripts to sync source code into a virtual machine for quick local testing.
• Reorganized documentation and development scripts into their own respective folders.

Fixed:

• For distributions using NetworkManager, there is now support for complex networking devices and devices with custom names through the use of a NetworkManager dispatcher script.
• agetty now reloads when new issue snippets are dropped or removed. This fixes issues where changes won't be reflected in currently open serial (agetty) consoles, e.g. a network interface changed and got a new IP address during the time the console was left open.

v0.18.2

Added:

• .path units for issuegen and motdgen which can optionally be (and really should be, but won't break functionality in this release if they are not) enabled to regenerate the issue/motd dynamically when files are dropped into /run/console-login-helper-messages/{issue,motd}.d. The console-login-helper-messages-issuegen.service and console-login-helper-messages-motdgen.service units should still be enabled to ensure the issue/motd are generated on boot. In the next incompatible development release (>=0.19.0), it is planned to be a requirement that the .path units are enabled.
• Development scripts to build an RPM from source and install it into a virtual machine for local testing

Fixed:

• issuegen and motdgen services no longer depend on network-online.target - this dependency was not needed and could cause a confusing failure with NetworkManager-wait-online.service (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1846169)
• shebangs and executable bits were fixed to avoid a warning when building RPM
