Lock to "current release" enabled by default from 7.5

Yes, I adapted the mirrorlist script to work with this new feature today: Return full version number in mirror URL by DavidePrincipi · Pull Request #9 · NethServer/mirrorlist · GitHub

However the only way to really test it on 7.4 is quite complex because it does not exist any more, as we’re in 7.5 now. To get an idea:

  • git clone mirrorlist in a web server and fix the release numbers for testing
  • configure the “mirrorlist.nethserver.org” virtualhost in the web server
  • add a DNS override in nethserver testing VM to point to the fake server

(I already suggested a similar solution for a different problem here: YUM update repository problems (from Russia) - #34 by davidep)


Thank you for your input! This weird idea was your :wink:

Do you remember?
