Changed
Django 1.12 support
Archivematica has been upgraded to Django 1.12 LTS. Our next target is Django 2.2 LTS!
There are a couple of things to be aware of during the Archivematica upgrade in this respect:
- For a seamless experience for your users make sure that all active user sessions are deleted. We explain how here: Maintenance > Clear user sessions.
- Django's User model now comes with a character limit of 150 characters. In Archivematica v1.11.x or older we had that limit set to 250 characters via a third-party app that we have now deleted. During the database migration (i.e. when running manage.py migrate), users may be required to fix the problem manually. See the migration module documentation for more details. We expect this to be highly unlikely to happen since the exception is only triggered when the 150 character limit in the username field is exceeded.
Replace whitelist with allowlist
We have changed "whitelist" to "allowlist" in an effort to use more inclusive language throughout Archivematica's code.
Fixed
- Status doesn't revert to "Stored" after deletion requests are rejected: https://github.com/archivematica/Issues/issues/1273
- Cannot create a SIP from a Bag transfer in Appraisal tab: https://github.com/archivematica/Issues/issues/1267
- Transfer/AIP status not in sync when package is deleted within SS: https://github.com/archivematica/Issues/issues/1189
- Cannot rebuild backlog or AIP indices when location is encrypted: https://github.com/archivematica/Issues/issues/734
- Disk usage pages are not reporting accurate numbers: https://github.com/archivematica/Issues/issues/1281
And more! Please see the 1.12 milestone in Github for all issues addressed in this release: https://github.com/archivematica/Issues/milestone/12
