Bug Description

Landscape Client 1.4.0 has been released. We would like to get these changes into Karmic, Intrepid and Jaunty. The required pieces of information for a SRU follow (as laid out in the "Procedure" section of https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates).

=== Statement explaining the impact ===

New features have been developed since the versions of Landscape Client that are currently in Intrepid, Jaunty and Karmic. We would like to make sure all of our supported customers (even those on Intrepid and Jaunty and Karmic) have access to these features. The notable ones are:

1) Support for release upgrades. From the Landscape web UI, it's now possible to issue a system upgrade between to subsequent Ubuntu releases (e.g. from jaunty to karmic), which will be performed using the regular update-manager code in non-interactive mode.

2) Report Smart locking information. The client will now report the server about Smart locks set on the system, which the Landscape UI is going to display with a special icon.

3) Several bug fixes which improve the overall user experience.

For more details see Bug #456124, Bug #340843, Bug #465846, Bug #476418, Bug #369000, Bug #450629, Bug #455217, Bug #462543, Bug #463321 and Bug #488108 (all mentioned in the debian/changelog of the proposed packages).

=== How the bug has been addressed ===

We have been following the development procedure laid out in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LandscapeUpdates

=== Patches ===

The three branches for the new landscape-client intrepid, jaunty and karmic source packages are attached to this bug, and are were derived from

lp:ubuntu/intrepid/landscape-client
lp:ubuntu/jaunty/landscape-client
lp:ubuntu/karmic/landscape-client

respectively.

=== Detailed instructions how to reproduce the bug ===

N/A

=== Discussion ===

All the source packages have been subject to the QA process detailed in the LandscapeUpdates document linked above.
