Subject:  TSL 2.0: public testing of updates using swup

The TSL developers are proud to announce that the public testing area
for TSL 2.0 is now up and running.



Experienced users have already used the testing area at

<URL: http://www.trustix.net/pub/Trustix/testing>

for quite some time, but we feel that an area from which you may use
swup would be an improvment, and hopefully make more people test the
updates before we release them as official TSL 2.0 updates.



* Using the testing area:


To make swup care about the testing area, replace the default site list
of your swup.conf with:

# TSL 2.0 official updates testing
site {
  class = o
  location = "http://snow.trustix.org/cloud/rdfs/latest.rdf"
  regexp = ".*"
}

(It is sufficient to increment the class of the old sites with 1, if you
still would like them present in you swup.conf file.)

You also need to import the PGP key by which the packages will be signed:

    wget http://snow.trustix.org/CLOUD-DEVEL-KEY
    swup --import-key CLOUD-DEVEL-KEY



Any bugs found in the updates should be reported on the tsl-discuss
mailing list.



Regards



c
