Hi, as requested to webmasters[1], could we get a CHECKSUMS file (as
provided for other Fedora releases) including all checksums?
It also needs to be signed of course.
You might decide that it is not needed, just forwarded the query.

#5721: Need application icons and application descriptions

Hi,
For the application installer preview I need the application icons and
localized description data. I had the fedora-app-data package NAKd, but
something needs to provide this data. Spot seemed to think it would be
okay to include as metadata.
The idea is to:
* Generate the appstream.xml and appstream.tar files on koji
* xmlmerge the .xml files and cat the .tar files when mash'ing the compose
together.
I've got C code to do the former, although someone familiar with python
probably wants to re-write the code before putting it into koji. For F20
we can probably just ship the 15 most popular application icons and
descriptions in gnome-software, although this won't scale with all the
apps in Fedora.
Any questions, I'm hughsie on IRC. Thanks.

-----------------------------+------------------------
As noted on the F17 QA retrospective by me and Bruno Wolff:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_17_QA_Retrospective
it's a problem that we use git master of both comps and spin-kickstarts
for composes - not the latest packaged version - and both these git repos
are not frozen during freezes.
During the 17 cycle, we had a concrete example of a comps change during a
freeze causing considerable trouble:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=807879 - pulling
Boxes into comps during the Beta freeze made that issue a serious problem.
For spin-kickstarts, the same kind of thing is possible, and we also have
a release criterion requiring a spin-kickstarts package which matches the
.ks files used for the compose to be present in the release repository;
obviously, the lack of a git freeze makes this tricky to ensure.
So we would strongly recommend, at minimum, a mechanism for freezing spin-
kickstarts and comps at Alpha, Beta and Final freeze. Post-freeze changes
could be made following the same blocker/NTH process used for other post-
freeze changes.

Torrent Releases Infrastructure SOP
http://torrent.fedoraproject.org/ is our master torrent server for
Fedora distribution. It runs out of ServerBeach.
Contact Information
Owner: Fedora Infrastructure Team
Contact: #fedora-admin, sysadmin-torrent group
Location: ibiblio
Servers: torrent.fedoraproject.org
Purpose: Provides the torrent master server for Fedora distribution
Torrent Release
When you want to add a new torrent to the tracker at
http://torrent.fedoraproject.org you need to take the following steps
to have it listed correctly:
1. login to torrent.fedoraproject.org. If you are unable to do so
please
contact the fedora infrastructure group about access. This
procedure
requires membership in the torrentadmin group.
2. upload the files you want to add to the torrent to
torrent.fedoraproject.org:/srv/torrent/new/$yourOrg/
3. use sha1sum and verify the file you have uploaded matches the
source
4. organize the files into subdirs (or not) as you would like
5. run /srv/torrent/new/maketorrent [file-or-dir-to-torrent]
([file-or-dir-to-torrent]) to generate a .torrent file or files
6. copy the .torrent file(s) to: /srv/torrent/www/torrents/$yourOrg/
7. cd to /srv/torrent/torrent-generator/ or /srv/torrent/spins-
generator/
(depending on if it is an official release or spins release)
8. add a .ini file in this directory for the content you'll be
torrenting. we use fedora-torrent-ini.py from fedora releng git
repo to generate it
9. mv all files from /srv/torrent/new/$yourOrg into
/srv/torrent/btholding/ - this includes the files you uploaded as
well
as the .torrent files you've created.
Your files will be linked on the website and available on the tracker
after this.
$yourOrg is one of fedora or spins
this all needs to be setup to be done via a single script.

Working through the F16 QA retrospective here:

One of the notes is:
"jlaska - Alpha TC1 - Missed the Alpha-TC1 milestone by 1 week, little to
no communication regarding status. With only two weeks Alpha ISO test
time, losing 50% of time almost certainly results in a slip. See rel-eng
ticket#4844 . None of the Alpha rel-eng release tickets have been filed at
this time.
adamw - perhaps releng image compose SOP should require updating of ticket
with progress info, especially when image compose / delivery is delayed?"
So: this ticket proposes that the releng 'Composing test images' SOP -
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Composing_test_images - should be extended
to require whoever is creating the images to post a comment on the image
request ticket if the compose is delayed, explaining the reasons for the
delay (so that any other interested party can attempt to contribute to
resolving them) and giving a best estimate of an ETA if possible (so other
groups can adjust their scheduling as best they can).

Hi, we already discussed a bit about this issues with nirik, before the
F19 release day.
However, yesterday was worse as expected.
Please see the number of fixes:
https://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/fedora-web.git/log/
(7 important fixes after the merge into prod aedf487eb).
== Summary of major issues:
* http://torrent.fedoraproject.org/spins/ changed to
http://torrent.fedoraproject.org/torrents and we had no idea about this.
* The naming scheme of the file changed which introduced a bug in our
spins website build as it is based against the Json file. We had to fix a
2 years old python code. And we did not know about this.
* Each release we have the 32 bit arch named i686 or i386, it's always
changing. We defined variables in order to help us maintain the websites..
And this does not help us. I know that it depends of the proc instruction
set. But where is the need to change that really? Could we avoid it?
Sooner or later we will drop 32 bit arch... Couldn't we define which arch
to stick with?
* We don't know before last minute if the Spin has built for GA and
therefore if it is going to be released. We need to check it manually. And
really, we can't do it all manually. (as lazy programmers we can't even
think about this).
* Even the spins name has changed in the past, which break our code and
already existing URLs. And then we need to define URL redirect... I hope
jam-kde won't be changed to jam-mate-compiz-fusion-dark at some point..
Just wondering...
* The secondary (ARM) path changed from Images/arm/ to Images/armhfp/.. I
understand the need to tell if it's using FP or not, but again we didn't
know about this before testing in prod.
That should not happen again. Please, help me define the best way to avoid
this. It could be improving SOP, or updating a file after each build..
whatever.
It's a probably wider collaboration issues as it is involving primary,
secondary, SIGs (spins, cloud).. But starting with Releng we can probably
sort this and define the smoother solution for all.
What we need in a simple way (script friendly) and easy to generate for
you is a way to get:
All image full name, path (if possible before release), size (not needed
for torrents), format (torrent, spin, dvd, cloud... whatever) and
checksum. What can't be available easily can have an easy process to get
them or at least we need to know how and when to get them.
The most important of course is the image full name. If we don't know that
this image exists (or died), we won't be able to update it.
Any brillant idea?

This may be less of an issue now that we don't have the split CD set, but
I would like it if rel-eng could produce a file into the master mirror
tree for "groups" of files that should be a single consistent download
set, such as a DVD and the checksum file, or the set of files that are
together inside a single torrent. MirrorManager is growing the idea of a
"file group", a single requestable entity that will return a metalink
listing each of the files in the file group. The intent was to use it for
the multi-CD download sets, but it's just as valuable for the DVD and
checksum file, or other similar groups. But it needs to be a file (say,
.fileset or something), in a directory that MM can find and use to build
the FileGroups.

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!

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.
