Hi everyone,
I'm the Product Owner of the OSCI team. A few years ago, the team set up the Fedora CI
tests executed for Pagure PRs and Bodhi updates. Specifically the:
- Fedora CI - scratch build
- Fedora CI - installability
- Fedora CI - dist-git test
- Fedora-ci.koji-build.rpminspect.static-analysis
- Fedora-ci.koji-build.rpmdeplint.static-analysis
These tests run on
https://osci-jenkins-1.ci.fedoraproject.org/job/fedora-ci/.
Our intent was to run the same tests as we run in RHEL gating also in Fedora gating. That
was the main motivation to introduce these tests a few years ago in Fedora.
The OSCI team’s focus however changed to CentOS Stream after it was introduced and we
never had enough capacity to refocus back to Fedora. I do not see any option currently on
how the team could keep maintaining our current Fedora infrastructure and tests.
The main reasons for this are simply the amount of work the team can handle in its current
head-count and also the differences between the CentOS Stream infrastructure and Fedora
infrastructure. We are moving to
Gitlab.com CI for CentOS Stream and we cannot do the same
move in Fedora. We also cannot maintain both infrastructures at the same time for the
reasons mentioned above.
I’m therefore asking anyone who wants to keep these tests running to step in and tell us.
We are ready to provide a knowledge transfer if it’s needed, but otherwise, we plan to
decommission this Jenkins instance and the tests completely by March 2024.
Thank you for understanding,
Jan Kaluza
