Re: packaging work is becoming increasingly cumbersome

One easy way koji can make it easier to find failed builds is to enable web-based login, and to have a button for "my tasks". Luckily, this is at least bookmark-able:

Hi list,

I have been co-maintaining goffice and gnumeric for a while now. It has
been unfortunately becoming increasingly difficult over time, given the
fact that the two often need to be chain-built and tools needed to do
this have been slowly becoming more time-consuming to use, in addition
to some other issues. For example:

- requesting buildroot overrides via commandline has been broken for
over than a year now and will not be fixed until f26 [1]. Web interface
is much slower.
- chain-building has been broken for a month [2] so now requesting each
build in the chain separately is required
- fedpkg now needs authentication via kerberos instead of ssh key [3],
which means that I now have to run kinit before starting a packaging
session, in addition to firing up keepass and entering the password
- koji login via certificate is no longer possible which makes it harder
to track failed builds

While I am sure these changes are done with an aim of improving things
in the long run, the churn caused by them is really starting to take a
toll on my motivation. Could something be done to mitigate the
inconveniences caused by the infrastructure upgrades?

Best regards,
Julian
