Hi, folks!
So I noticed today that F24 nightly composes are missing Cloud images.
This is, I think, because 32-bit Cloud image generation is still
enabled for F24, and it's failing due to the known kernel bug
preventing 32-bit boot working at all:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=13434747
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=13434766
https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//work/tasks/4766/13434766/screenshot.ppm
I believe when the i386 image build fails the Koji task fails, and when
the Koji task fails Pungi just doesn't pull in any of the images - even
though the x86_64 subtask succeeded and built images.
Obviously we could consider solving that in Pungi somehow, but it led
me to wondering whether we actually want 32-bit image generation
enabled at all any more. It seems from this ticket:
https://fedorahosted.org/cloud/ticket/106
and this meeting discussion:
https://meetbot-raw.fedoraproject.org/fedora-meeting-1/2015-09-09/cloud_w...
that the intent was to 'sunset' the i386 images in the F24 cycle. I'm
not sure whether that means you still want them built, or not. So can
the WG please clarify if they still want i386 Cloud images to be built
at all? If not, releng can disable them in the Pungi config.
I don't know if it was every properly communicated to the public, but
I definitely don't want to see 32 bit images any longer.
Did we ever put a post up on fedmag about this? Can we do one now?
