Warewulf v4.7.2 released

The Warewulf project is pleased to announce the release of Warewulf v4.7.2, now available on GitHub.

Warewulf v4.7.2 is a bug-fix release in the v4.7.x series.

• fix two-stage boot on Enterprise Linux 8, broken by warewulf-dracut in v4.7.1 (images must install the updated warewulf-dracut and rebuild their initramfs)
• warewulfd serves provisioning files only from within their directories, so node settings can no longer select files elsewhere on the server
• wwctl node add and wwctl profile add apply --tagadd, --nettagadd, and --ipmitagadd again
• the deprecated --container, --wwinit, and --runtime flags are applied again
• fix the chrony overlay on Debian and Ubuntu
• node discovery ignores invalid hardware addresses
• dependency updates, including grpc 1.84.0 for CVE-2026-84303 and a migration to go.podman.io/image that removes docker/docker; the minimum Go version is now 1.25.7

Significant changes are detailed in the release notes. Additional changes may be listed in the CHANGELOG.
