#5779: Build target for tcl-8.6.1 -----------------------------+------------------------ Reporter: jskarvad | Owner: rel-eng@… Type: task | Status: new Milestone: Fedora 20 Alpha | Component: koji Keywords: | Blocked By: Blocking: | -----------------------------+------------------------ Hi, could we get a separate f21 build target to build tcl-8.6.1 and rebuild packages which depend on it? It's cca. 100 packages. We can also do it without the tag - it will take approx. 1 to 2 weeks with various probably minor breakages. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/5779> Fedora Release Engineering <http://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng> Release Engineering for the Fedora Project

#5362: Use XZ for repository metadata compression -------------------------+------------------------ Reporter: elad | Owner: rel-eng@… Type: enhancement | Status: new Milestone: | Component: other Keywords: | Blocked By: Blocking: | -------------------------+------------------------ See [https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=700020 bug #700020] for details. I was informed that yum and createrepo already support xz compression for metadata, yet in Fedora still use bz2. We should probably switch repositories to use xz as well. I was told to talk with rel-eng, I hope this is the right place to do so. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/5362> Fedora Release Engineering <http://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng> Release Engineering for the Fedora Project

#5214: Setup koji tags and repo for Docs

#5214: Setup koji tags and repo for Docs -----------------------------+------------------------ Reporter: crantila | Owner: rel-eng@… Type: task | Status: new Milestone: Fedora 18 Alpha | Component: koji Keywords: docs | Blocked By: Blocking: | -----------------------------+------------------------ Posted here as per [https://fedorahosted.org/fedora- infrastructure/ticket/3320] '''phenomenon''' To support simpler and more robust updates to docs.fp.o, need to setup koji to handle a new tag and repo for Docs. '''implementation recommendation''' <Sparks> What would be required to stand up a separate instance of koji for Docs? <dgilmore> Sparks: why would you want a seperate instance? <dgilmore> Sparks: i dont see any valid reason to do so <Sparks> dgilmore: For the Docs website. Publican has the ability publish documentation from packages (separate repo from the Fedora repo) for the website. We want to replace the git repo that operates it now. <dgilmore> Sparks: and why does that need a seperate koji? <Sparks> The git repo has gotten HUGE and is becoming an issue. <dgilmore> Sparks: so, why does that mean a seperate koji instance <dgilmore> Sparks: we could use a seperate tag and targets in koji <dgilmore> i dont see why it would need its own koji <Sparks> dgilmore: It's either that or try to get everyone setup as packagers. <dgilmore> Sparks: get everyone setup as packagers <Sparks> dgilmore: Except that they really won't be packagers. <dgilmore> Sparks: though you dont need to be a a packager to get a koji cert <dgilmore> you just need fas <dgilmore> Sparks: what would be the workflow? <Sparks> dgilmore: Okay, and with that we can send packages through koji and tag them separately? <Sparks> dgilmore: Basically we just tell Publican to build the package and submit it to koji. The Publican software does all the work. <dgilmore> Sparks: I still really dont know what your trying to do. pretend im an idiot(not really that hard) and explain what it is and how it should work <Sparks> dgilmore: I'm not far off... <Sparks> dgilmore: So Publican will make an SRPM package, submit it to koji destined for a repo. Our Publican backend will install those packages and publish the data to the website. <Sparks> ...as I understand it <dgilmore> Sparks: so we would need to set up seperate tags and tagets for it, defining a koji policy allowing srpms to be built. likely we would add a new group to koji and add people allowed to build docs to it and limit access to the tags/targets to people in that group <dgilmore> Sparks: so its all doable <Sparks> dgilmore: Well that's a lot easier. :) <Sparks> dgilmore: We already have a group in FAS for people that should have access (docs- publishers). Should I open a ticket? <dgilmore> Sparks: koji doesnt know anything about fas <dgilmore> Sparks: please file a ticket. We wont be able to make changes until after f17 is done <Sparks> dgilmore: That's fine. We're not completely ready for the transition so after F17 would be good. <Sparks> dgilmore: Thanks! -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/5214> Fedora Release Engineering <http://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng> Release Engineering for the Fedora Project

Please also blacklist the new version of OpenJDK (java-1.8.0-openjdk). Users are surprised when one OpenJDK package is available but not the others.

#5418: Adopt policy that SCM request should be accepted from authorized users only --------------------+------------------------ Reporter: ppisar | Owner: rel-eng@… Type: defect | Status: new Milestone: | Component: git Keywords: SCM | Blocked By: Blocking: | --------------------+------------------------ FESCo ticket [https://fedorahosted.org/fesco/ticket/981] moved to rel-eng quee. = Phenomenon Release engineers proceed SCM request from non-authorized applicants. = Background Analysis spot added SCM change request for 4 packages he does not own nor co- maintain and release engineer has processed the requests. The requests were to create new branches owned by master owners. Example [https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=835544#c7]: {{{ From: Tom "spot" Callaway 2012-12-11 21:50:00 GMT Package Change Request ====================== Package Name: perl-Pod-Markdown New Branches: f16 f17 Owners: jplesnik mmaslano ppisar psabata InitialCC: perl-sig From: Jon Ciesla 2012-12-12 13:14:20 GMT Git done (by process-git-requests). }}} This undermines regular maintainers' rights and obligations because they cannot even be sure which branches their packages exist and which they are responsible for. This conflicts with current policy for creating additional branches on behalf third persons (the third person, owner of new branch, asks current owner and current owner submits SCM request.) = Implementation recommendation Release engineers will accept SCM changes only from requesters who own or co-maintaint the package. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/5418> Fedora Release Engineering <http://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng> Release Engineering for the Fedora Project

#4084: gcc multiarch broken dep -----------------------+---------------------------------------------------- Reporter: mschwendt | Owner: rel-eng(a)lists.fedoraproject.org Type: defect | Status: new Milestone: | Component: mash Keywords: | -----------------------+---------------------------------------------------- There is a discrepancy between what is pushed to stable dist repos and to updates-testing. With the latest "gcc" test-update, F-14 is affected, too (which means this is not specific to F-13). gcc-gfortran.i686 is available in x86_64 development/14 but not x86_64 updates/testing/14. The version-specific dependency in it is unresolvable deps if it isn't updated. What is the cause of it? Can it be fixed in the compose tools? Or is a self-"Obsoletes" (which is not arch-specific by default) in gcc-gfortran the only cure? http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/development/14/x86_64/os… {{{ [ ] gcc-4.5.1-1.fc14.x86_64.rpm 13-Aug-2010 14:51 14M [ ] gcc-c++-4.5.1-1.fc14.x86_64.rpm 13-Aug-2010 14:50 5.1M [X] gcc-gfortran-4.5.1-1.fc14.i686.rpm 13-Aug-2010 14:56 4.4M [ ] gcc-gfortran-4.5.1-1.fc14.x86_64.rpm 13-Aug-2010 14:54 5.0M [ ] gcc-gnat-4.5.1-1.fc14.x86_64.rpm 13-Aug-2010 14:52 9.9M [ ] gcc-java-4.5.1-1.fc14.x86_64.rpm 13-Aug-2010 14:56 4.0M [ ] gcc-objc++-4.5.1-1.fc14.x86_64.rpm 13-Aug-2010 14:56 4.3M [ ] gcc-objc-4.5.1-1.fc14.x86_64.rpm 13-Aug-2010 14:57 3.9M [ ] libgcc-4.5.1-1.fc14.i686.rpm 13-Aug-2010 14:53 61K [ ] libgcc-4.5.1-1.fc14.x86_64.rpm 13-Aug-2010 14:51 52K [ ] libgcj-4.5.1-1.fc14.i686.rpm 13-Aug-2010 14:54 17M [ ] libgcj-4.5.1-1.fc14.x86_64.rpm 13-Aug-2010 14:55 19M [ ] libgcj-devel-4.5.1-1.fc14.i686.rpm 13-Aug-2010 14:50 1.5M [ ] libgcj-devel-4.5.1-1.fc14.x86_64.rpm 13-Aug-2010 14:51 1.5M [ ] libgcj-src-4.5.1-1.fc14.x86_64.rpm 13-Aug-2010 14:51 12M }}} http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/development/14/x86_64/os… {{{ [ ] gcc-4.5.1-3.fc14.x86_64.rpm 07-Sep-2010 12:36 14M [ ] gcc-c++-4.5.1-3.fc14.x86_64.rpm 07-Sep-2010 12:39 5.1M [ ] gcc-gfortran-4.5.1-3.fc14.x86_64.rpm 07-Sep-2010 12:42 5.0M [ ] gcc-gnat-4.5.1-3.fc14.x86_64.rpm 07-Sep-2010 12:31 9.9M [ ] gcc-java-4.5.1-3.fc14.x86_64.rpm 07-Sep-2010 12:29 4.0M [ ] gcc-objc++-4.5.1-3.fc14.x86_64.rpm 07-Sep-2010 12:35 4.3M [ ] gcc-objc-4.5.1-3.fc14.x86_64.rpm 07-Sep-2010 12:34 3.9M [ ] libgcc-4.5.1-3.fc14.i686.rpm 07-Sep-2010 12:33 62K [ ] libgcc-4.5.1-3.fc14.x86_64.rpm 07-Sep-2010 12:33 52K [ ] libgcj-4.5.1-3.fc14.i686.rpm 07-Sep-2010 12:29 17M [ ] libgcj-4.5.1-3.fc14.x86_64.rpm 07-Sep-2010 12:35 19M [ ] libgcj-devel-4.5.1-3.fc14.i686.rpm 07-Sep-2010 12:29 1.5M [ ] libgcj-devel-4.5.1-3.fc14.x86_64.rpm 07-Sep-2010 12:37 1.5M [ ] libgcj-src-4.5.1-3.fc14.x86_64.rpm 07-Sep-2010 12:41 12M }}} -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/4084> Fedora Release Engineering <http://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng> Release Engineering for the Fedora Project
