+- Allow xdist to run the tests in parallel for the Python 2.7 env
+  
+  This reverts an accidental change that was introduced with
+  942ed7a8eea65f1c99b5f51a8587cfbeae73b484, which removed the {posargs} from
+  tox.ini for the python 2.7 environment.

+- Update tools from strip list for oemboot
+  
+  For legacy oemboot kiwi descriptions the strip list for
+  tools to keep in the initrd is still active. On s390

+  added by this commit. This Fixes #963

+- Fixed import of signing keys
+  
+  In reference to bsc#1112357 it was required to add the compat
+  symlink /var/lib/rpm such that zypper can read the signing
+  keys. Unfortunately zypper does not use the configured rpmdb
+  from the rpm macro setup.
