If the release candidate 1 does not successfully pass all required
tests, then the issues will be fixed and a new release candidate will be
re-tested. This would delay the release, which would be reflected on
this page.

Apertis is a Debian derivative distribution geared towards the creation
of product-specific images for ARM (both the 32bit ARMv7 and 64-bit
ARMv8 versions using the hardfloat ABI) and Intel x86-64 (64-bit)
systems.
**Apertis v2024pre** is the preview release of the Apertis
v2024 stable release flow that will lead to the LTS **Apertis v2024.0**
release in March 2024.
This is the second Apertis release that is built on top of Debian Bookworm
along with several customizations and it ships the latest Linux LTS kernel
6.6.x series. Later releases in the v2024 channel will be tracking kernel updates
in this LTS series as well as Debian Bookworm Stable Channel.
Test results for the v2024pre release are available in the following
test reports:
- [APT images](https://qa.apertis.org/report/v2024pre/20231122.0315/apt)
- [OSTree images](https://qa.apertis.org/report/v2024pre/20231122.0315/ostree)
- [NFS artifacts](https://qa.apertis.org/report/v2024pre/20231122.0315/nfs)
- [LXC containers](https://qa.apertis.org/report/v2024pre/20231122.0315/lxc)

[tested under VirtualBox]( {{< ref "/virtualbox.md" >}} ).

## New features
### New versions of core packages
As part of the rebase on top of Debian Bookworm all the packages have been updated. As a summary this is a list
of the packages available:
- [GCC 12.2.0-14](https://gitlab.apertis.org/pkg/gcc-12/-/tree/apertis/v2024pre)
- [Glib 2.74.6-2](https://gitlab.apertis.org/pkg/glib2.0/-/tree/apertis/v2024pre)
- [Glibc 2.36-9+deb12u3](https://gitlab.apertis.org/pkg/glibc/-/tree/apertis/v2024pre)
- [Systemd 252.17-1~deb12u1](https://gitlab.apertis.org/pkg/systemd/-/tree/apertis/v2024pre)
- [OpenSSL 3.0.11-1~deb12u2](https://gitlab.apertis.org/pkg/openssl/-/tree/apertis/v2024pre)
- [GNU TLS 3.7.9-2](https://gitlab.apertis.org/pkg/gnutls28/-/tree/apertis/v2024pre)
- [Nginx 1.22.1-9](https://gitlab.apertis.org/pkg/nginx/-/tree/apertis/v2024pre)
- [Gstreamer 1.22.0-2](https://gitlab.apertis.org/pkg/gstreamer1.0/-/tree/apertis/v2024pre)
- [Pipewire 0.3.84-1~bpo12+1](https://gitlab.apertis.org/pkg/pipewire/-/tree/apertis/v2024pre)
The [Debian release notes](https://www.debian.org/releases/stable/releasenotes) provides additional information
about the new version of packages.
### Add support for podman
As working with different container technologies provides extra flexibility to build products, Apertis added
the support for podman (libpod). During this work, special care has been taken to ensure that this package and
its dependencies match [Apertis license expectations]({{< ref license-expectations >}}).
### Include user friendly license reports for target images
As part of the evolution of Apertis, a new set of reports based on [OSS Review Toolkit](https://github.com/oss-review-toolkit/ort)
are included for every target image. These reports are human friendly, allowing an easy review
of the licenses used by Apertis images.
### Include builddeps reports
Following the idea of provide more resources for Software Build of Materials, now Apertis provides
a report for the build dependencies of every package in the target images, including its version.
This information helps to easily track CVEs that might potentially affect Apertis packages.
### Support for running integration tests on MRs
Following the guidelines described in the [Apertis test strategy]({{< ref "test-strategy.md" >}})
this release provides initial support for running automated tests on LAVA in the
context of a MR. With this feature, packages changes can be validated by running integration tests
before landing them to main branches.
It is currently recommended that only packages where potential regressions
may have a high-impact on the system stability have this feature enabled, given the extra
resources required to run the tests.
As before, all available integration tests are also run regularly on daily image builds.
## Build and integration
### Improve aptly integration and performance
After switching to aptly as the publisher for Apertis packages several improvements have been made
to the integration with OBS as well as the performance during publishing. As a result, the overhead
in the process of creating managing APT repositories has been dramatically reduced, both in the manual
effort required and in the amount of infrastructure resources.
### Support for more fine-grained access roles in QA Report App
With the goal of providing better access control to the QA Report App, now three different roles
are defined to allow performing the following actions: view results, submit manual tests results and
tag images. These changes should allow teams to better split responsibilities, by only allowing
the necessary access to specific users/groups.
