Name : cobbler
Product : Fedora 21
Version : 2.6.6
Release : 1.fc21
URL : http://www.cobblerd.org/
Summary : Boot server configurator
Description :
Cobbler is a network install server. Cobbler supports PXE, ISO
virtualized installs, and re-installing existing Linux machines.
The last two modes use a helper tool, 'koan', that integrates with
cobbler. There is also a web interface 'cobbler-web'. Cobbler's
advanced features include importing distributions from DVDs and rsync
mirrors, kickstart templating, integrated yum mirroring, and built-in
DHCP/DNS Management. Cobbler has a XMLRPC API for integration with
other applications.

Feature improvements
* Make kickstart selectable from a pulldown list in cobbler-web (#991)
* Minor adjustment to the error_page template (cobbler-web)
* Minor improvements to edit snippets/kickstarts template (cobbler-web)
* Allow for empty system status
Bugfixes
* Exit with an error if cobblerd executable can't be found (#1108 #1135)
* Fix cobbler sync bug through xmlrpc api (NoneType object has no attribute info)
* Changes (edit/add) to multiple interfaces in cobbler-web now actually work (#687)
* Don't send the Puppet environment when system status is empty (#560)

Upgrade notes
This release makes the use of --parent and --distro mutually exclusive. The consequence is that subprofiles always have the same distro as the parent profile. This has been the intended behaviour ever since subprofiles got introduced.
Please check if you have subprofiles with different distros than the parent profile and reconsider and adjust your configuration.
Bugfixes
* Add missing _validate_ks_template_path function so that kickstarts for systems can now be changed again (#1156)
* Remove root= argument from boot when using grubby and replace-self to avoid booting the currently running OS (#638)
Feature improvements
