Oracle Linux chroots (temporarily) available in Fedora Copr
by Pavel Raiskup
Hello,
just a quick note - we enabled Oracle Linux chroots in Fedora Copr today,
this is temporarily needed by OAMG/LEAPP team for their CI/CD system.
Feel free to test those chroots, but please don't heavily depend on them
as we don't know when we'll again drop them (preferably use
epel/centos-stream chroots instead, they should provide similar build results).

Excluding older builds of packages from Fedora when testing new ones
in Copr
by Miro Hrončok
Hello Copr users and developers.
When we update packages in Fedora, we regularly use Copr to test the impact of
the upgrade.
For me, the procedure usually goes like this:
1) create a new copr with Fedora rawhide x86_64 chroot (and added Koji repo)
$ copr create $COPR
--repo='http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/repos/rawhide/latest/$basearch/'
--chroot fedora-rawhide-x86_64 --delete-after-days 30
2) define and build the updated package in the copr
$ copr add-package-distgit $COPR --name $PKG --webhook-rebuild on --commit
$BRANCH --namespace forks/$(whoami)
$ copr build-package $COPR --name $PKG
3) get the list of dependent packages
$ repoquery -q --repo=rawhide{,-source} [--whatrequires $spkg for each
subpackage] --recursive | grep src$ | pkgname
4) define and build the depended packages in the copr
$ parallel copr add-package-distgit $COPR --webhook-rebuild on --commit
rawhide --name -- $(repoquery from above ...)
$ parallel copr build-package $COPR --nowait --background --name --
$(repoquery from above ...)
5) analyze build failures, do a "control" rebuild in another copr if needed
However, this procedure has a flaw. Let's say I'm working on upgrading
python-click from 7.x to 8.x. And let's say a package (even transitively)
BuildRequires:
python3dist(click) < 8
The way that dnf dependency resolution works, that package will be built with
Rawhide's python3-click 7.x and it will be marked as successful. However, I'd
like to see a failure here to be notified that such package cannot be build and
will be negatively impacted by the update.
Is there a way to solve this? I have couple ideas, but none of them is fully
working:
A) Compose my own repo with the updated package and Rawhide content without it,
use that repo in the copr.
Pros:
- this is similar to what will happen in Koji once the package is updated
Cons:
- this requires tooling that I don't think exists
- this requires a place to put that repo to
- the repo creation could take a lot of time and would need to be repeated
on-demand each time rawhide changes
- Copr's Fedora chroots always include Fedora repos (maybe I can use
custom-1-x86_64 chroot?)
B) Create a Fedora side tag, explicitly block the package from it, use that
side tag's Koji repo.
Pros:
- same as (A)
Cons:
- I don't think on-demand side tags allow users to block packages
- Copr's Fedora chroots always include Fedora repos (same as (A))
- this wastes Koji's resources a bit
- requires waiting for the initial Koji regen-repo
C) Block (exclude) python3-click < 8 from the chroot.
Pros:
- no custom repos required
- no resources overhead
- no time overhead
Cons:
- There is no way exclude packages in chroot settings. Mock settings possibly
allow me to do this in config_opts['dnf.conf'].
- The exclude could obfuscate root.log resolution problems logs.
- Packager needs to figure out what exactly to exclude (possibly need to
exclude all subpackage's NEVRAs from rawhide compose (and Koji buildroot if
they differ))
Is there another way? If not, I think (C) is easiest to actually implement, if
the chroot settings page in copr gains an "excludes" option.

Running COPR on kubernetes cluster?
by TommyLike Hu
Hey COPR team,
Is there any document on how to run a COPR server on the kubernetes
cluster? Including the builder if it's possible.

Removing fedora-37-armhfp chroot
by Jakub Kadlčík
Hello,
today we were made aware that it is possible to build for
fedora-37-armhfp in Copr and that such builds immediately fail.
That is because the armhfp architecture was discontinued since Fedora
37, meaning that Fedora 36 is the last version that supports it.
For more information, please read
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/RetireARMv7
The fedora-37-armhfp chroot was added into Copr accidentally, and I am
now disabling it.

Fedora 37 branched
by Pavel Raiskup
Hi, Fedora 37 has been branched recently. We started the branching process:
https://docs.pagure.org/copr.copr/how_to_manage_chroots.html#branching-pr...
ATM we submitted a task for copying fedora-rawhide builds into fedora-37, this
should be finished in about 24 hours.
Currently, updates for mock-core-configs (with F37 configs) are being submitted
to Bodhi. But note that we can not enable F37 in Copr till there's a working
compose and mirrors work (not at this moment).
