Subject: [gentoo-dev] News item for Radicale upgrade
Date: Fri, 02 Mar 2018 05:49:57
Message-Id: 20180301214944.07c5ab83@amdahl.home.chead.ca
1 Hello,
2 I have filed a pull request
3 <https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/7274> to add Radicale 2.1.8 to
4 the tree. Migrating from Radicale 1 to 2 requires running a database
5 export command using Radicale 1, i.e. *before* upgrading, as Radicale 2
6 can’t read version 1’s storage format. Please see below my proposed
7 news item to go along with this version bump. Note that I am not a
8 developer and am therefore unable to commit this myself; I would
9 appreciate that it be reviewed and then whoever accepts my pull request
10 also add this news item at the same time. Because of this, I have set
11 the Posted date to today, as I can’t predict when it will actually be
12 posted; I ask that the committer please revise the date accordingly.
13 Thank you!

22 Radicale version 2 uses a new storage format and is not able to read
23 databases created by version 1. Version 1 releases starting from 1.1.3
24 include a --export-storage option which can be used to export their
25 databases in a format that Radicale 2 can use; you must do this before
26 upgrading to version 2.
