gLite 3.1

glite-VOBOX - Update to version 3.1.21-0


Date 16.12.2008
Priority Normal

Description

The following fixes are released with glite-VOBOX 3.1.21-0:

1. New features for the hydra clients have been included:

- split-key support using Shamir's Secret Sharing Scheme
- using GFAL for I/O (replacing gLite I/O)

Known bugs:

- glite-eds-put doesn't work as documented. It cannot use lfc's GUID:s, so "-i keyname" must be specified on the command line

2. Upgrade of lcg-vomscerts-5.2.0:

- renamed all certificates with ".pem" suffixes because of bug 43395.
- removed expired certificate of voms.cern.ch

3. Update of glite-security-trustmanager rpm to have the right bouncycastle dependency.

This is a simple fix for the bouncycastle libraries moved to a new location with bouncycastle 1.41. If the VOBOX is working, this change has no effect. When the VOBOX is next time reconfigured or if there is a clean install this change has an effect and will use the algorithm described in patch 2644. See original submission.

It is recommended to run the config script again to get the additional link to the /usr/share/java/bcprov.jar even though it doesn't exist to prepare for the eventual update to bouncycastle 1.41.

4. Fix for GGUS ticket 44201. WMS do not match jobs which should match. This requires a change in the glue schema.

Please also have a look at the list of known issues.

This update fixes various bugs. For the full list of bugs, please see list below.
