Ubuntu 23.10 (Mantic Minotaur) has reached end of life, so this bug will
not be fixed for that specific release.

Title:
[SRU] Backport 0.107.1-3 to Ubuntu 23.10
Status in netplan.io package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in netplan.io source package in Mantic:
Won't Fix
Status in netplan.io source package in Noble:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Stable Release Update for netplan.io 0.107.1-3 to Mantic. This version
has many bug fixes and new features we want to make available to users
of Ubuntu 23.10. netplan.io has an SRU exception for backporting new
versions with new features https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetplanUpdates
Another SRU, for Jammy, was prepared in a separate LP bug:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/netplan.io/+bug/2058031. As
the package is slightly different (due to backwards compatibility
patches) and on Mantic we have the integration with Network Manager
(which can cause different problems and requires more tests) I thought
it would be more appropriate to work on the Mantic SRU in a different
LP bug.
[Impact]
This release contains both bug-fixes and new features and we would like to
make sure all of our supported customers have access to these improvements.
The notable ones are:
* wifi: add support for WPA3-Enterprise
https://github.com/canonical/netplan/pull/402
https://bugs.launchpad.net/netplan/+bug/2029876
* wifi: make it possible to have a psk and an eap password simultaneously
https://github.com/canonical/netplan/pull/416
* parse: allow COMMON_LINK_HANDLERS for VRFs
https://github.com/canonical/netplan/pull/401
The change below generates a different backend configuration for
wpa-supplicant. Although is will not cause major backwards compatibility
problems:
* wifi: support WPA2 and WPA3 Personal simultaneously
https://github.com/canonical/netplan/pull/404
In addition to all the changes from netplan.io 0.107.1-3, a couple of
bug fixes were imported from netplan.io 1.0-1:
* debian/patches/lp2041727: Check if ovsdb-server.service is active before displaying warning
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/netplan.io/+bug/2041727
https://github.com/canonical/netplan/pull/421
This fixes an annoying warning message that many users were seeing
when they call "netplan apply".
* d/p/0004-tests-assert-generated-.service-files-in-assert_srio.patch, d/p/0005-tests-sriov-test-if-the-generated-netplan-rebind-ser.patch, d/p/0006-sriov-don-t-generate-duplicate-entries-in-the-rebind.patch: Don't generate duplicate entries in the netplan-sriov-rebind.service
https://github.com/canonical/netplan/pull/437
This fixes a duplication problem where "netplan rebind" could
process the same SR-IOV interface multiple times.
See the changelog entry below for a full list of changes and bugs.
[Test Plan]
The following development and SRU process was followed:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetplanUpdates
Netplan contains an extensive integration test suite that is ran using
the SRU package for each releases. This test suite's results are available here:
http://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/packages/n/netplan.io
A successful run is required before the proposed netplan package
can be let into -updates.
The netplan team will be in charge of attaching the artifacts and console
output of the appropriate run to the bug. Netplan team members will not
mark ‘verification-done’ until this has happened.
Testing netplan upgrade
1) Launch a Mantic LXD VM
lxc launch ubuntu:mantic mantic-vm --vm
lxc shell mantic-vm
2) Check Netplan works
netplan get
netplan apply
3) Install Network Manager so we can test the netplan-everywhere
integration
apt update
apt install network-manager
4) Change the default renderer to NetworkManager in
/etc/netplan/50-cloud-init.yaml
network:
renderer: NetworkManager
version: 2
ethernets:
enp5s0:
dhcp4: true
5) Apply the configuration
netplan apply
nmcli con show
6) Add a new connection with nmcli
nmcli con add type dummy ifname dummy0
7) Check that a new 'dummy-device' is present in Netplan
netplan get
8) Add the PPA with the new package
add-apt-repository ppa:danilogondolfo/netplan-sru
apt update ; apt -y upgrade
9) Restart Network Manager so it will load the new libnetplan
systemctl restart NetworkManager
10) Add a new interface using nmcli
nmcli con add type dummy ifname dummy1
11) Check it will show up in the Netplan configuration
netplan get
12) Delete both of the new connections
nmcli con del dummy-dummy0
nmcli con del dummy-dummy1
13) Check they are gone
netplan get
[Where problems could occur]
In order to mitigate the regression potential, the results of the
aforementioned integration tests are attached to this bug.
Regressions in this update could potentially impact the generation of
networking configuration and also Network Manager. Note that all the
autopkgtests for both netplan.io and network-manager don't show any
regression. Also, this version of netplan.io was present in Noble for
a few months now and no regressions were reported.

* Drop patches not required for 23.10:
- debian/patches/python-limited-stable-api.patch
* debian/netplan.io.preinst:
- This preinst script is intended to cleanup the .pyc files from
share/netplan/netplan. This directory is supposed to be removed after
the upgrade from netplan.io 0.106.1 to 0.107, as the Python code
was moved to it's own python3-netplan package, but it's left behind
due to Python cached files.
* Drop changes related to usr-merge and not required for 23.10:
- debian/netplan-generator.dirs
- debian/netplan-generator.install
- debian/netplan-generator.postinst
- debian/netplan-generator.preinst
* debian/netplan-generator.lintian-overrides:
- Drop overrides file. It wasn't really silencing any lintian warnings.
