Full Changelog: 8.24.1...8.24.2

8.24.1

Important

The 8.24.x releases will be the last release for EL 7 and Fedora 41 platforms. Amazon Linux 2 will remain until its EOL next year. Additionally, SLES 15 will be subject to availability of the free container. Typically, only the latest version of SLES is provided as a free container image without a subscription. When the current SLES 15 image is removed in favor of 16, we'll only have the option to build 16, unless sponsorship provides us the ability to obtain a subscription for the older images.

8.23.1

• Fix how we find the version library by @nmburgan in #203

Full Changelog: 8.23.0...8.23.1

8.23.0

• This is our first release where MacOS and Windows agents are built entirely in GitHub Actions!
• MacOS x86_64 is now supported
• The MacOS agents now work on all currently supported MacOS versions (13, 14, and 15). No need for separate packages!
• The openvox-agent repo, which was the repo used for building the openvox-agent packages, has now been integrated into this openvox repo under the 'packaging' directory. This will allow us to have fewer steps in the build process and tag changes more cleanly, rather than having to tag two separate repos. Note that for releases prior to this one, the changelog in this file refers only to the changes to openvox itself and not packaging changes. For example, 8.22.1 was released to fix an unintentional service renaming issue and details are in the openvox-agent repo. At some point, we may try to integrate the two changelogs.
• This release contains a large number of dependencies bumps. Most are not security related, but many dependencies were lagging for a long time. See this PR for details.
• A patch for Augeas to address CVE-2025-2588

Implemented enhancements:

• Respect systemd's RUNTIME_DIRECTORY environment variable #165 (ekohl)

Fixed bugs:

• treat windows service accounts as case insensitive #172 (binford2k)
• Ensure confdir exists #171 (binford2k)

Merged pull requests:

• Promote puppet-runtime 2025.09.04.1 #191 (nmburgan)
• Merge openvox-agent vanagon repo #186 (austb)
