Tests with SELinux, new images
by Marius Vollmer
Hi,
the integration tests now run with SELinux enabled, and there are new
test machine images because of that. As usual, running VERIFY or
testsuite-prepare should download them automatically.
There shouldn't be any changes necessary in our development
environments, but you might try to "setenforce" them, too.
Happy enforcing!

Cockpit 0.8 released
by Stef Walter
Cockpit 0.8 has been released:
https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/releases/tag/0.8
This is a big milestone, in that we've moved beyond our prototype stage,
and closed up a bunch of security/stability issues.
In particular, we respect the system access privileges and don't provide
ways to escalate privileges without going through the usual channels
like polkit or sudo.
Because of this some features that used to work for accounts in the
wheel group, no only work as root. We're working on fixing this
regression by fixing system default policies in the various services
(like NetworkManager) that we access.
Our goal is that having Cockpit 0.8 or later installed should pose no
security risk. That said, you should still be careful when using it to
manage your system.
Cheers,
Stef

Cockpit master now listens on port 1001
by Marius Vollmer
Hi,
we just changed the port that Cockpit listens on by default. It's just
nicer.
You need to download new images for the integration tests, because the
firewall configuration in them have changed. The VERIFY script should
do this automatically (via testsuite-prepare).
