``
## Describe the issue

According to [the FTBFS/FTI
policy](https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fesco/Fails_to_build_from_so...:

>  A week before the mass branching, any packages which still have open
> FTBFS bugs from the previous release will be retired. This can be requested via a releng
> issue.
>  
A week before the mass branching, according to [the
schedule](https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/31/Schedule), is at **2019-08-06**.

There are currently [~800 open F30FTBFS
bugzillas](https://bugzilla.redhat.com/showdependencytree.cgi?id=F30FTBFS...,
20-30 of them are ON_QA.

Prior to the  retiring, I suggest we close bugs for packages that built after the mass
rebuild. (I've tried to run
[mass-rebuild-close-bugs.py](https://pagure.io/releng/blob/master/f/scripts/mass-rebuild-close-bugs.py)
but ti apparently sees no build, as it did nothing but skip all. Either I using it wrong
or it is broken.)

## When do you need this?

On 2019-08-06.

## When is this no longer needed or useful?

Final F30 Freeze (2019-10-08) makes this not useful for F30, but stil useful for
rawhide/F31.

## If we cannot complete your request, what is the impact?

8 hundred FTBFS packages that nobody fixes.

Anyone who knows how to use mass-rebuild-close-bugs.py correctly?

Here's a draft:

for line in $(bugzilla query --blocked $tracker --status NEW,ASSIGNED,POST,MODIFIED
--outputformat "%{id}:%{component}"); do
  bug_component=( ${line/:/ } )
  bug=${bug_component[0]}
  component=${bug_component[1]}
  # XXX any better way to get rid of epel and fc29 builds?
  builds=$(koji list-builds --package $component --after "$date"
--state=COMPLETE --quiet | egrep "fc(30|31)" | cut -f1 -d' ' | tr
'\n' ' ')
  if [ -z "$builds" ]; then
    echo "Let's retire $component"
    if false; then
      fedpkg clone $component
      (cd $component && fedpkg retire "This package fails to build from
source waaaay to long, bye bye!")
      rm -rf $component
      bugzilla modify --status CLOSED --close EOL --comment "The package was
retired." $bug
    fi
  else
    echo "The following builds were made: $builds"
    if false; then
      bugzilla modify --status CLOSED --close WORKSFORME --comment "The following
builds were made: $builds" $bug
    fi

done

@churchyard no need to reinvent the wheel.

I have written script which does something what you want here:

(it does not handle fedpkg retire, but that is easy to integrate). Just wanted to point
out to not write same scripts over and over.

If you can run it an close the bugz, good. I could have not. Nobody else replied. I'd
rather reinvent the wheel than have another Fedora release where we just fail to retire
the packages again.

I've talked to @mohanboddu over IRC. The conclusion was:

- @mohanboddu to send an announcement about this happening (when?)
- @mohanboddu is on vacation on Tuesday, @kevin is traveling to Flock, but will try to run
this
- delay to Wednesday if the above fails to happen

(I'll try to meet @kevin at Flock if that helps.)
