2016.11 includes a move away from libapache2-mod-uwsgi and libapache2-mod-wsgi to gunicorn support. This has been done to make it possible for lava-server and lava-dispatcher to migrate into Stretch ahead of the Debian 9 Stretch release. (see https://lists.linaro.org/pipermail/lava-announce/2016-November/000019.html). This should allow us to upload 2016.11 to jessie-backports in due course.

See: https://lists.linaro.org/pipermail/lava-announce/2016-October/000017.html for details of the changes for gunicorn support. In particular, if you are using apache, before installing this upgrade, ensure that these commands have been run on the master:

$ sudo a2enmod proxy $ sudo a2enmod proxy_http $ sudo service apache2 restart

These commands are safe to run before upgrading to 2016.11 but will need to be run before 2016.11 will actually run.

This release includes all changes in master since the 2016.9 release.

The release has been uploaded to Debian unstable, it should appear on the official mirrors shortly. It has also been uploaded to the production repo.

We are anticipating that there will be an interim release ahead of 2016.12 for additional LXC support, more details will follow via this list.
