To make it absolutely 100% clear this is totally 100% not going to
happen .... no.

Today I've spent time between $realwork getting my ansible plays
updated to handle F28 (thanks for dropping python2-* early guys!) and
have been in contact with lorbus (thanks for stepping up).

Last bit to debug before I can start testing an update of OC and NC is
why my automated setup explodes with:

PHP Fatal error:  Declaration of
OC\\Files\\Storage\\Local::copyFromStorage(OCP\\Files\\Storage
$sourceStorage, $sourceInternalPath, $targetInternalPath) must be
compatible with
OC\\Files\\Storage\\Common::copyFromStorage(OCP\\Files\\Storage
$sourceStorage, $sourceInternalPath, $targetInternalPath,
$preserveMtime = false) in
/usr/share/owncloud/lib/private/Files/Storage/Local.php on line 42",

The roles I use for testing are here: https://github.com/hogarthj/test_vms

I'll be pushing updates as I get fixes there

I'll be adding repos here to start tracking the builds:
https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/jhogarth/

Again, recognise what you'll be stepping up to, but if you are willing
help is very welcome.


I do understand that mantain a package like OC and NC it is a lot of work, I know it is just a litle help in the path to get the update working  but I did some review of missing depencies because was the only visible step to help to get the updated version of NC at that moment, but I am curios about somethings:

1. There is both OC and NC in repos, two packages, the double of works, It is irrational to keep just with one stream of the software? A well documented setp can help users to move from OC to NC.

2. There is some work done to get NC 13 on Fedora, I apreciate that you want to provide a clean path to current users to update, but it is irratational to thing in ship the last version of NC to users and have a very good docs about it?

I see that you have problems with testing the update, is that ansible playbook available in some public repo? I can help to test, a NC/OC test day with a wiki with the test coverage can be a great way to get help in this and get feedback/help for users and I can help to test.
