| Summary: | Relax-and-Recover is a Linux disaster recovery and system migration tool |
| Description: | Relax-and-Recover is the leading Open Source disaster recovery and system migration solution. It comprises of a modular frame-work and ready-to-go workflows for many common situations to produce a bootable image and restore from backup using this image. As a benefit, it allows to restore to different hardware and can therefore be used as a migration tool as well. Currently Relax-and-Recover supports various boot media (incl. ISO, PXE, OBDR tape, USB or eSATA storage), a variety of network protocols (incl. sftp, ftp, http, nfs, cifs) as well as a multitude of backup strategies (incl. IBM TSM, MircroFocus Data Protector, Symantec NetBackup, EMC NetWorker, Bacula, Bareos, BORG, Duplicity, rsync). Relax-and-Recover was designed to be easy to set up, requires no maintenance and is there to assist when disaster strikes. Its setup-and-forget nature removes any excuse for not having a disaster recovery solution implemented. Professional services and support are available. |

- Add a sshd helper to rescue, otherwise sshd does not start, PR 3510
- add dependency on grub2-tools-extra on EFI machines (RHEL-85421) - add initial support for aarch64 machines with UEFI (RHEL-84286) - enhance the 300_map_disks.sh script to also print the disk sizes (RHEL-106771) - support generation of ed25519 SSH host keys in the rescue image (RHEL-106770) - fix recovery of LUKS encrypted systems with multiple keyslots (RHEL-106762) - fix PPC PReP Boot detection on GPT layouts (RHEL-82098) - skip longhorn iscsi devices in disklayout.conf (RHEL-106561) - restore the pre-2.8 OUTPUT=IPL behaviour (RHEL-102563)
- require syslinux-extlinux which is necessary for USB devices bootable on legacy BIOS
- rebase to version 2.9 (rhbz#2343296) - drop upstreamed patches - remove obsolete patch for rhbz2119501 - ReaR 2.7 and newer do not copy dangling symlinks in /lib/modules/*/ - remove broken patch for rhbz1492177 (VERBOSE is a read-only var, so the script silently failed) - install correct packages using proper RPM dependencies instead - rebase remaining patches

- Remove doc/rear-release-notes.txt, it is CC-BY-ND-3.0, which is not an allowed license for documentation, and use a cleaned tarball (with the file removed) for build
- Generate /etc/rear/os.conf during build again, it is better than generating it in %post, but do not mark it as config file to allow it to be updated during package upgrade and avoid containing an old OS version information
- skip btrfs subvolumes when detecting ESP partitions
- fix booting on UEFI systems with multiple CDROM devices
- fix copying of console kernel cmdline parameters
