I am really angry at Copr's expiration policy once again. It looks like I missed the deadline to renew the expired chroots (I still do not get any notification mails, they end up eaten in a spam filter somewhere), so once again a lot of data was deleted forever with no way to recover it.
What is your proposal then? The
resources are not infinite.
??? If you have enabled "Follow Fedora branching" (per-project setting) then all your packages are automatically rebuild for new Fedora version when it is added to Copr. And your project will be always up2date.(By the way, I have since entirely deleted 3 deprecated Coprs that do not have builds for newer releases and hence stopped being useful entirely as a result.)
BTW email is not the only one notification we have. If some of yours chroot are flagged as EOL you will be shown this banner in WebUI:The assumption that users will receive notifications mails and act on them is still entirely invalid (because e-mail is not a certified delivery method, mails can get lost at any time), and deleting data is not and will never be a safe default. The default must be to retain, not to delete.
Some of the chroots you maintain are newly
marked EOL, and will be removed in the future. Please review
https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/user/repositories/
to hide this warning.
This is not a solution as it does not comes with solution where we get the storage.PS: At the very least, you could add a checkbox to allow a maintainer to opt out permanently of automatic expiration (it would still be possible to
manually click on "Expire now"), as opposed to having to click dozens of buttons (an everincreasing number, since there is not even an "Extend all" button) at least every 180 days (in practice, more often, or you end up missing the deadline). That is a very unfriendly dark pattern.
We did not put there "Extend all" intentionally. With the intent that you have to consider each project separately and think about if you still really needed.
BTW: I am curious what is your use-case to keep **dozens** EOL repositories (which means F34-) alive?
