patch for kojid to prevent noarch build failures
by Jesse Keating
Today a number of builds were failing on xenbuilder2/4. They were perl
noarch builds. The failure output was like:
+ '%{_fixperms}' /var/tmp/perl-Module-ExtractUse-0.22-1.fc8-root-/usr
/var/tmp/rpm-tmp.90217: line 32: fg: no job control
I investigated a failed buildroot and discovered that _fixperms was not
being evaluated and translated in the rpm script as it should have
been. _fixperms is an arch specific macro, and that led me to do some
testing with how the mock rebuild is being called in noarch cases.
Turns out, this is something I already fixed in upstream koji. Koji
was unnecessarily calling mock with --arch noarch in the noarch build
cases. I hadn't realized this was going to cause builds to fail so I
hadn't done an upstream release with this fix yet. However since this
is failing builds, I'm going to patch the builders manually. Here is
the fix:
https://fedorahosted.org/koji/changeset/a023693e32d663ab7ad4f4fc85912c987...
diff --git a/builder/kojid b/builder/kojid
index ae4be90..5cf10a2 100755
--- a/builder/kojid
+++ b/builder/kojid
@@ -457,7 +457,7 @@ class BuildRoot(object):

args = ['--no-clean']
- if arch:
+ if arch and arch != 'noarch':
args.extend(['--arch', arch])
args.extend(['--rebuild', srpm])
rv = self.mock(args)
I'm providing this here should something happen and the builders get
reverted before I do the next koji upstream release.

RE: Proposal - Official Forum
by Matt Domsch
I am forwarding this to the fedora-infrastructure-list which would be a better place for this discussion.
How would forums benefit the Fedora community, over and above how we currently use public email lists?

Subject: Proposal - Official Forum
I would like to propose that Fedora adopt an official forum.
In the forum users can exchange tips and tricks for the operating system
Users will also be able to ask for help from the community thus making it
alot easier for users to obtain help with fedora.
As for the moderation Im sure some of the fedora Marketing, Ambassadors, web
Teams would be happy to help as moderators.
I am unsure if this has been proposed before. I am sorry if it has.
Thanks,

15:10 < mmcgrath> So we've added some space from the netapp that we recently discovered, a tiny amount in compared what we're using.
15:11 < jcollie> so did i hear right that a new netapp is on order?
15:11 < mmcgrath> jcollie: its in the process of being ordered.
15:11 < mmcgrath> I just informed our RH people where to ship it.
15:12 < MrBawb> feel free to say no way, but what about non-netapp storage?
15:12 < mmcgrath> actually we didn't order an additional netapp this time around.
15:12 < mmcgrath> its just a disk tray from Dell with around 10T of storage.
15:12 < MrBawb> ah
15:12 < mmcgrath> and its going to be dedicated to the build system.
15:12 < mmcgrath> any other questions on that?
15:13 * mmcgrath is hoping for delivery sometime in the next 2 weeks but with christmas and such its hard to say.

15:14 < mmcgrath> So we've had the conversation on the mailing list.
15:15 < mmcgrath> Anyone have any questions with this from this last week?
15:15 < jcollie> so is roland opposed to converting to git/hg/bzr?
15:15 -!- stahnma [n=stahnma(a)c-76-18-178-254.hsd1.tn.comcast.net] has joined #fedora-meeting
15:15 < mmcgrath> Just a reminder is whether or not to support monotone which would also get elfutils on fedorahosted.
15:15 < mmcgrath> Which is good, but supporting all scm's under the sun is bad.
15:15 < mmcgrath> jcollie: yeah, he's opposed to everything that is not monotone.
15:16 < mmcgrath> So I'll give a 5 minute vote, +1 for, -1 against +0 not voting and -NEEDMOREINFO to prefer to wait till next week.
15:17 < dgilmore> I kinda think we should support monotone to get elfutils completely out of the closet
15:17 < mmcgrath> ============== Voteing begins now ===========
15:17 < dgilmore> +1
15:17 < jcollie> +1

15:17 < MrBawb> +0
15:17 < stahnma> -1, why support more things....
15:18 < skvidal> +0
15:18 < couf> +0
15:18 * mmcgrath has to admit this comes down to monotone -1 and elfutils +1.
15:19 < skvidal> mmcgrath: right
15:20 < mmcgrath> a 5 minute vote might seem kind of long.
15:21 < abadger1999> Who's going to work on integrating monotone? Roland or one of us?
15:22 < mmcgrath> 1 minute yet.
15:22 < mmcgrath> abadger1999: it'll have to be one of us unless he wants to join the team.
15:22 < mmcgrath> which I'll try to get him to do but if thats all he's going to do I fear it won't do us any good.
15:22 < mmcgrath> Either way its just knowledge. We can learn it.
15:22 < jima> oops
15:22 < mmcgrath> jima: you going to vote?
15:23 < mmcgrath> +0 can't decide.
15:23 < jima> -1 for monotone
15:23 < mmcgrath> =================== Voting Done ===============
15:23 < jima> no one's familiar with it, right?
15:23 < mmcgrath> So that makes +3-2=+1
15:23 < mmcgrath> So I'll start working out the details with Rolland.
15:23 * ricky appers.
15:24 < ricky> **appears
15:24 < mmcgrath> It could be there comes a technical hurdle or something else that we can't overcome.
15:24 < mmcgrath> But for now we'll go forward under the assumption that we're going to support monotone.
15:24 < mmcgrath> ricky: yo
15:24 * ivazquez will as well
15:25 < mmcgrath> allrighty

15:25 < mmcgrath> http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/Schedule
15:26 < mmcgrath> So not much going on on the sponsorship side. We're still waiting on peer1 for their logo and info.
15:26 * MrBawb -> afk
15:26 * mmcgrath did add this to the wiki
15:26 < mmcgrath> .tiny http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/Architecture?action=AttachFi...
15:26 < mmcgrathbot> mmcgrath: http://tinyurl.com/2elthq
15:27 < mmcgrath> I'll be updating that documentation in coming weeks.
15:27 < mmcgrath> Before FUDCon.
15:27 < mmcgrath> Nothing new on the SOP front.
15:28 < dgilmore> mmcgrath: kickstart and puppet SOP's worked well
15:28 < mmcgrath> ahhh yes /me forgot dgilmore got to test those this week.
15:28 < mmcgrath> On the sponsorship front we've also got J5 working with us to do some development work. he's now on the sysadmin-test group.
15:28 < dgilmore> only minnor issues and part of that is probably that i prefer to use the cycaleds and serial console
15:29 < mmcgrath> <nod>
15:29 < mmcgrath> Alrighty. So thats all I've got
15:29 < mmcgrath> dgilmore: can you give us a quick overview of what we did with the builders this last week?
15:29 -!- mmcgrath changed the topic of #fedora-meeting to: Infrastructure -- Builder upgrades.
15:29 < dgilmore> mmcgrath: sure
15:30 < dgilmore> so to start with I built a new hub
15:30 < dgilmore> its a xen guest on Xen1
15:30 < dgilmore> when we switched over i shut the builders down
15:30 < dgilmore> brough the new hub up and got it in place
15:31 < dgilmore> then one by one did a reinstall on the builders
15:31 < dgilmore> we made a slight change in the way the builders are put together
15:31 < dgilmore> we made /var/lib/mock a raid0 with ext2 on it
15:31 < dgilmore> it should give a small speed improvement in builds
15:32 < dgilmore> and if a drive dies we dont care that we lost the file system
15:32 < dgilmore> ppc4 had some quirks
15:32 < dgilmore> i had to change the drive it boos off in the SP
15:32 < dgilmore> hammer2 is still the only physical x86_64 host
15:33 < dgilmore> the rest of the x86_64 boxes are xen guests
15:33 < mmcgrath> solid
15:33 < dgilmore> so thats the run down
15:33 < dgilmore> any questions
15:33 < mmcgrath> all in all it seems like things are back in good order right?
15:33 < dgilmore> yes
15:33 < dgilmore> all done
15:33 * mmcgrath wishes ppc1 would get back in to order.
15:33 < jcollie> yeah builds are back to a decent speed
15:33 < dgilmore> we now are using mock 0.9.x
15:33 < ivazquez> Should we perhaps get another x86_64 box? Or are we fine with what we have?
15:34 * dgilmore too stupid ibm
15:34 < dgilmore> we have 4 x86_64
15:34 < dgilmore> we could always use more
15:34 < dgilmore> ivazquez: we do have replacement hardware just need power for it
15:34 < mmcgrath> We have a whole blade center sitting on the floor somewhere waiting to get installed.
15:34 < ivazquez> I can't help but think of what would happen if it goes down hard (knock on wood).
15:34 < mmcgrath> the earliest I've heard is january.
15:35 * skvidal holds his breath
15:35 * skvidal passes out from holding his breath
15:35 < mmcgrath> heh
15:35 < mmcgrath> dgilmore: have anything else on the builders?
15:35 * mmcgrath notes dgilmore is sitting just 10 feet from him.
15:36 < mmcgrath> he says no :)

15:36 < mmcgrath> skvidal: not quite.
15:36 < mmcgrath> I could hit him with an orange.

15:36 < skvidal> throw fruit
15:36 < mmcgrath> heheh
15:37 < skvidal> ook
15:37 * dgilmore slaps skvidal
15:37 < mmcgrath> Ok, if no one has anything else they'd like to discuss I'll close the meeting in 30.
15:37 < mmcgrath> 15
15:37 < abadger1999> MrBawb: Want to update us on Moin?
15:38 < dgilmore> abadger1999: he dropped off
15:38 < mmcgrath> thats a good thing to talk about
15:38 < mmcgrath> MrBawb: you still afk?
15:38 < mmcgrath> we can wait a bit and see if he appears.
15:38 < abadger1999> Oh well.
15:38 < mmcgrath> abadger1999: we'll nab him next time.
15:39 * mmcgrath creates ticket for it to make sure
