       guestfs-tools-release-notes - guestfs tools release Notes

       These are the release notes for guestfs tools stable release 1.48.  This describes the major changes
       since 1.46.

       Guestfs tools 1.48.0 was released on 14March2022.

   virt-builder
       New templates: "alma-8.5", "centosstream-8", "debian-11", "fedora-34", "fedora-34" (armv7l), "fedora-35"
       "fedora-35" (aarch64) (Lars Kaiser, Stef Walter).

       New fedora-34 (armv7l) template is built to use UEFI.

   virt-customize
       The yescrypt password hashing method is now supported (Björn Esser).

   virt-inspector
       Recognise "kalilinux", "kylin" and "msdos" operating systems / Linux distros (Laszlo Ersek).

       Inspection of LUKS encrypted filesystems placed directly on logical volumes is now supported, but you
       will need libguestfs ≥ 1.48 (Laszlo Ersek).

   virt-sysprep
       Add a new default operation called "net-nmconn" which removes NetworkManager connection profiles (Laszlo
       Ersek).

   virt-win-reg
       "virt-win-reg --version" now prints both the version of guestfs tools and the libguestfs library that it
       is linked with.

   Commonchanges
       All OCaml tools now suppress line wrapping when output is redirected to a file (to make it easier to
       parse logs with external programs).  There is a new --wrap option which can be used to reenable line
       wrapping to files if needed (Laszlo Ersek).

   Buildchanges
       Multiple fixes to make it easier to build against either the system installed libguestfs or a locally
       built libguestfs (Laszlo Ersek).

       Fix multiple OCaml warnings.  Remove some deprecated OCaml features.  We now require OCaml ≥ 4.04.

       Multiple fixes to valgrind support for glibc 2.35, OCaml 4.13 and libvirt 7.7.  "make check-valgrind"
       should now work.

   Internals
       New OCaml "On_exit" module (from libguestfs-common) is used instead of custom on-exit and signal
       handling.
