Hello all,
Fedora Linux 37 has gone end of life for updates and support on 2023-12-05. No more updates of any kind, including security updates or security announcements, will be available for Fedora Linux 37 after the said date. All the updates of Fedora Linux 37 being pushed to stable will be stopped as well.
Fedora Linux 38 will continue to receive updates until approximately one month after the release of Fedora Linux 40. The maintenance schedule of Fedora Linux releases is documented on the Fedora Project wiki [1]. The Fedora Project wiki also contains instructions[2] on how to upgrade from a previous release of Fedora Linux to a version receiving updates.
This email template is also in https://pagure.io/releng if you wish to propose improvements or changes to it.
Regards, Tomas Hrcka Fedora Release Engineering

Can someone please update https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/releases/eol/#_unsupported_fedora_linux... to correct the EOL date for F37 to 5th Dec?
Or should I open a releng ticket for that?
Thanks! Jens

PR is enough (in the upper right corner is edit button). And there is already one
https://pagure.io/fedora-pgm/pgm_docs/pull-request/62
Someone just need to merge this.

As part of the EOL tasks all bugs open for F37 receive an EOL notice, first, and sometime later they will change status to CLOSED | EOL, unless the version is changed.
It seems the first step (notification) happened, but the second step (closing) has not completed. IIRC, I saw some bugs being closed, but I also see a lot of F37 bugs still open [1].
Is that an oversight or did something go wrong during the procedure? I cc'ed Aoife, who appears to have run the first step. I'm happy to open a ticket if required.

I'll get the EOL-close script running again, it kept timing out so I thought it was finished but clearly not - my mistake and apologies :-/
The PR for the EOL date cannot be merged as there are conflicts so I will just close that one as the F37 EOL date is on the main page, but I forgot the navigation bar update which is done separately. Will resolve that now.

Just so folks are aware, the EOL closure uses a script: https://pagure.io/fedora-pgm/pgm_scripts/blob/main/f/closebugs/fedora_bz.py which runs bug-by-bug - so it comments on, or closes, one bug at a time. This means it takes a very long time to do the ~2-3k bugs that are typically commented-on then closed at EOL time.
Doing it this way was Ben's preference (he wanted to be able to see that every bug was updated and get a notice from the script for any single bug change that failed), but if it causes problems for Aoife we can have it mass-update bugs instead, since Bugzilla and its API allow that (now, they probably didn't when the predecessors to this script were written). I'll just have to check with the BZ admin whether there's any upper limit on how many bugs you can request a mass change to at once.

I just noticed that some bugs with version '37' were still open while others were already closed.
I think it makes perfect sense to do a mass update to the extend possible to have this process finish quicker. It's fairly easy to query for bugs that may have been missed afterwards. That's essentially what I did with my query.
You may also have to check with mail admins, because it might break the levees of the mail river doing a mass update, I could imagine.

Historically, the script ran much faster than Bugzilla, which meant after a while, we'd start getting timeouts. This is why there are pauses built into the script. A few years ago, the performance of Bugzilla improved greatly, but I never felt like exploring where the boundaries are. Updating all matching bugs in one transaction is still probably going to result in timeouts, but smaller chunks should work well enough. Of course, that means a transient failure could cause many bugs to need to be re-run instead of just one. That's not to say it can't be done, but it was never a priority for me.

I'm not saying that's what happened here, but it's not uncommon to see bugs that are closed EOL get re-opened but not have an updated version. For a long time, I never checked that when putting the bug count lists in the Friday's Fedora Facts posts. The first time I did, there were hundreds of bugs across several EOL releases. :-)

If Bugzilla is engineered *at all* sanely, it should be much less work for it to process a single request to do the same thing to 500 bugs than it is to process 500 individual requests to do the same thing to a single bug. There probably *is* a limit on the number of bugs you can request changes to at once, but it should be simple enough to find out what that ceiling is and work in batches below it.
Any update? This ticket is still open:

Ok I have re-ran the script again, this time it finished so I believe all F37 bugs are now closed <crosses fingers>. If you come across any open ones, do let me know and I will re-run the autoclose script.
Thanks! Aoife

There also used to be Rawhide bugs reassigned to latest stable Fedora, I might have missed something, but I don't think that has happened.

I don't think that's quite right. What happens is that Rawhide bugs get moved to the *new branched* (not stable) release, and naturally, this happens at branch time, which hasn't happened for F40 yet.
