36.0.0rc5

Release Candidate

This is a release candidate! Only to be used in testing environments!

Important changes

  • For policy package operators: Rucio 36 includes a breaking change in the way the supported Rucio version is configured. With this change, the version with PEP-compliant version specifier; you can find the specification for the version specifiers here: https://peps.python.org/pep-0440/#version-specifiers In order to migrate to the new format, you simply need to add a version specifier comparison operator to the SUPPORTED_VERSION line in your policy package. For example, if you only want to support the entire Rucio 36 release line (so 36.1.0, 36.2.0...) without yet supporting Rucio 37, you can use the compatible release operator ~=, as seen below. Before Rucio 36: SUPPORTED_VERSION = '36' From Rucio 36 onwards: SUPPORTED_VERSION = '~=36.0'
