rkt v1.23.0 Release Notes

Release Date: 2017-01-19 // about 7 years ago

  • 1.23.0

    🛠 This release adds a lot of bugfixes around the rkt fly flavor, garbage collection, kvm, and the sandbox. The new experimental app subcommand now follows the semantic of CRI of not quitting prematurely if apps fail or exit. Finally docker2aci received an important update fixing issues with os/arch labels which caused issues on arm architectures, a big thanks here goes to @ybubnov for this contribution.

    🆕 New features

    • sandbox: don't exit if an app fails (#3478). In contrast to regular rkt run behavior, the sandbox now does not quit if all or single apps fail or exit.
