    Primary download site

    - -

    - Most modules have releases made available for download on the project - site via HTTPS. Some modules are instead made available at alternative - locations, for example, the Perl binding is made available only on CPAN. -

    - - - -

    Primary release schedule

    - -

    - The core libvirt module follows a time based plan, with releases made - once a month on the 1st of each month give or take a few days. The only - exception is at the start of the year where there are two 6 weeks gaps - (first release in the middle of Jan, then skip the Feb release), giving - a total of 11 releases a year. The Python and Perl modules will aim to - release at the same time as the core libvirt module. Other modules have - independent ad-hoc releases with no fixed time schedule. -

    - -

    Release numbering

    - -

    - Since libvirt 2.0.0, a time based version numbering rule - is applied to the core library releases. As such, the changes - in version number have do not have any implications with respect - to the scope of features or bugfixes included, the stability of - the code, or the API / ABI compatibility (libvirt API / ABI is - guaranteed stable forever). The rules applied for changing the - libvirt version number are: -

    - -
    -
    major
    -
    incremented by 1 for the first release of the year (the - Jan 15th release)
    -
    minor
    -
    reset to 0 with every major increment, otherwise incremented by 1 - for each monthly release from git master
    -
    micro
    -
    always 0 for releases from git master, incremented by 1 - for each stable maintenance release
    -
    - -

    - Prior to 2.0.0, the major/minor numbers were incremented - fairly arbitrarily, and maintenance releases appended a - fourth digit. The language bindings will aim to use the - same version number as the most recent core library API - they support. The other modules have their own distinct - release numbering sequence, though they generally aim - to follow the above rules for incrementing major/minor/micro - digits. -

    - -

    Maintenance releases

    -

    - In the git repository are several stable maintenance branches - for the core library, matching the - pattern vmajor.minor-maint; - these branches are forked off the corresponding - vmajor.minor.0 formal - release, and may have further releases of the - form vmajor.minor.micro. - These maintenance branches should only contain bug fixes, and no - new features, backported from the master branch, and are - supported as long as at least one downstream distribution - expresses interest in a given branch. These maintenance - branches are considered during CVE analysis. In contrast - to the primary releases which are made once a month, there - is no formal schedule for the maintenance releases, which - are made whenever there is a need to make available key - bugfixes to downstream consumers. The language bindings - and other modules generally do not provide stable branch - releases. -

    - -

    - For more details about contents of maintenance releases, see - the - wiki page. -

    - -

    GIT source repository

    - -

    - All modules maintained by the libvirt project have their primary - source available in the project GIT server. - Each module can be cloned anonymously using: -

    - -
    -git clone https://libvirt.org/git/[module name].git
    - -

    - The git:// protocol is also available if desired, but - https:// is encouraged, since it is more reliable when - faced with strict firewalls. -

    - -
    -git clone git://libvirt.org/[module name].git
    - -

    - In addition to this primary repository, there are the following read-only git - repositories which mirror the master one. Note that we currently do not - use the full set of features on these mirrors (e.g. pull requests on - GitHub, so please don't use them). All patch review and discussion only - occurs on the libvir-list mailing list. Also - note that some repositories listed below allow HTTP checkouts too. -

    Signing keys

    - -

    - Source RPM packages and tarballs for libvirt and libvirt-python published - on this project site are signed with a GPG signature. You should always - verify the package signature before using the source to compile binary - packages. The following key is currently used to generate the GPG - signatures: -

    -
    -pub  4096R/10084C9C 2020-07-20 Jiří Denemark <jdenemar@redhat.com>
    -Fingerprint=453B 6531 0595 5628 5547  1199 CA68 BE80 1008 4C9C
    -
    - -

    - It can be downloaded from - this site or from - public GPG key servers. -

    - -

    - Releases prior to libvirt-6.6 were signed with the following GPG key: -

    - -
    -pub   dsa1024 2000-05-31 [SC]
