The eighth maintenance release of the 5.0 series of NAV is now out!
The source code is available for download at GitHub [1].
New packages for Debian 9/10 (Stretch/Buster) are available in our APT
repository [2] as usual.
Please also be extra aware of config file changes. Look out for
`*.dpkg-dist` files in /etc/nav and make sure to update your running
config.
The virtual appliance will be updated shortly.
Deprecation warning
===================
Python 2 reached its end-of-life on **January 1, 2020**. NAV 5.0
therefore moves to Python 3, and as such, you will need at least Python
3.5 to run NAV.
Most of NAV will still run on Python 2 as of the 5.0 release, but from
this point, Python 2 will be deprecated and we will start removing code
that exists solely to keep compatibility with Python 2.
Changes
=======
This release fixes a single regression introduced by NAV 5.0.7:
* #2196 ([BUG] ipdevpoll topo job crashes with a PostgreSQL
operational error, due to an index size error)
Please see the release notes [3] for more details. Happy NAVing
everyone!
