From: Thorsten Leemhuis on gitlab.com https://gitlab.com/cki-project/kernel-ark/-/merge_requests/1757#note_945430959 Many thx for your reply. > Filing issues would be helpful. If you can, please @ notify me in those issues. You sure about this? From the other stuff you wrote it seems you already have a battle plan for cleaning up kernel.spec and I don't think I provided any bright new insights for that. So maybe I'll just let you continue doing your work -- and once you get down to it I'll take time for a closer look at the changes to provide and feedback and an extra set of eyes then. >> * is there a specific reason why kernel-ark is using the first 15 characters of the commit-id for snapshot naming instead of just 12 characters, as typically used by kernel developers upstream? I ask as I ran into failures like `5.18.0-0.rc0.20220401gite8b767f5e04097a.15.vanilla.1.fc36.aarch64 exceeds 64 characters` with my vanilla builds. Seems the `20220401git` part is gone after these patches which would solve this for me, but I'd say being more in line with what upstream typically does would be nice. > @dzickusrh requested future proofing of this field. I have no issue with changing this back to the current linux standard 12-characters, however, there is some merit into his thoughts for the future. I can understand that line of thought, but I think being closer in line with what upstream does would be nice and leaves a bit more space for people that use local tags. And I guess Linux upstream sooner or later will talk about switching to sha256sums anyway, which might be a point where they will switch to a longer shorted value anyway which kernel-ark could pick up then. But I don't care too much if there are say at least say 10 to 15 characters left for people to apply a local tag to their packages (like my '.vanilla'). _______________________________________________ kernel mailing list -- kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to kernel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
