Fedora CoreOS `testing` 38.20231027.2.0 and `next` 39.20231022.1.0 may not receive updates
by Jonathan Lebon 13 Nov '23

Some recent releases of Fedora CoreOS on `testing` and `next` introduced an issue [[1]] that could prevent them from updating further. The issue was introduced in release 38.20231027.2.0 on the `testing` stream, and release 39.20231022.1.0 on the `next` stream. The issue is fixed in the latest `testing` and `next` releases rolling out over the next day (39.20231101.2.1 and 39.20231106.1.1 respectively), but systems may not have been able to update to them. To verify if a system is affected, run `systemctl status zincati.service` and look for error messages like "EMFILE: Too many open files". Affected systems can be fixed by using the following commands: ``` mkdir -p /run/zincati/config.d cat > /run/zincati/config.d/99-immediate.toml << EOF [updates] strategy = "immediate" [identity] rollout_wariness = 0 EOF systemctl restart zincati ``` This will make Zincati immediately update the system. Luckily, we believe the `stable` stream should not be affected. While the issue did make it to `stable`, a fixed release was made quickly enough to avoid any systems getting stuck. However, if using an update strategy other than `immediate`, you should confirm that the host system has been updated to release 38.20231027.3.2. We apologize for any inconvenience this causes. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us in the Fedora CoreOS issue [1] or in #coreos:fedoraproject.org on Matrix.

Fedora CoreOS rebasing to Fedora Linux 39

Fedora Linux 39 was released today [1]. The Fedora CoreOS `testing` stream has been rebased and is currently rolling out. In two weeks, it will be promoted to the `stable` stream. For more information about Fedora 39, see the Fedora Project's list of official Changes [2] and the Fedora CoreOS analysis of each Change [3]. As mentioned in a previous announcement, there are a few changes related to modularity, AWS AMIs, and `moby-engine` that require special attention. For more information, see [4]. Thank you to everyone helping find issues by running the `next` and `testing` streams!
