rawhide status - 2019-06-19

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Greetings everyone.

I thought I would send out a rawhide status email to catch everyone up
to whats going on there. I should have sent it sooner, but I was on
vacation, then in a set of meetings, etc.

The last rawhide compose that completed was 2019-06-09 (10 days ago now).

There's been a number of reasons for this. In order to accommodate some
fedora 31 changes ( dynamic build requires ) and epel8 work we needed a
koji with some backported patches as well as newer mock and createrepo_c.

So, first step was to get armv7 builders off Fedora 27 where they have
been stuck due to a kernel bug. Luckily Peter Robinson and Paul Whalen
have been working on isolating that bug and found a kernel/userspace
combo that we can use until we fix it. So, all the armv7 builders are up
on fedora 29 with a older kernel now.

Next I found that python2 koji-builder was no longer installable due to
python2 deps going away. I could have just tried to fix that, but I
figured it would be a good time to just move everything to python3 and
get it oever with. This turned out to be more involved than I had hoped:

* koji itself still shipped a python2 script (which we don't use and I
ended up just dropping in the fedora builds).
* Moving koji-builder over to python3 meant we had to also move over oz
and imagefactory (happily something which happened in rawhide) and all
the stack of things they use.
* I rebuilt (with patches) all the following for our f29 builders:
oz
imagefactory
koji
koji-containerbuild (which cverna ported to python3 nice and quickly)
python-urlgrabber
pycdio (is python2 only in fedora, but we needed python3, need to file a
bug on this one)
imagefactory-plugins
mock

After a number of update and find breakage and fix, I got things back
working monday all on python3.

Then of course since it's been so long since a compose, we are now
hitting those things that broke in the mean time. First some kde deps,
and now a ppc64le/aarch64 cloud image issue (
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1722181 )

Hopefully that one can be solved soon and we can get back on the
composes bandwagon.

Gating wouldn't have helped the python3 issues as that was builder side.
It would likely have helped with the kde deps and cloud issues however.
