Warewulf v4.6.0 is a significant upgrade, with many changes relative to the v4.5.x series:
- new configuration upgrade system
- changes to the default profile
- renaming containers to (node) images
- new kernel management system
- parallel overlay builds
- sprig functions in overlay templates
- improved network overlays
- nested profiles
- arbitrary "resources" data in nodes.conf
- NFS client configuration in nodes.conf
- emphatically optional syncuser
- improved network boot observability
- movements towards Debian/Ubuntu support
Particularly significant changes, especially those affecting the user interface, are described in the [release notes](https://warewulf.org/docs/v4.6.x/release/v4.6.0.html). Additional changes not impacting the user interface are listed in the [CHANGELOG](https://github.com/warewulf/warewulf/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md).
