F24 Self Contained Change: Koji Generates Repositories of Signed RPMs
by Jan Kurik
= Proposed Self Contained Change: Koji Generates Repositories of Signed RPMs =
Change owner(s):
* Jay Greguske < jgregusk with the usual red hat domain >
Extend Koji with a new feature that allows users to generate yum
repositories of signed RPMs.
== Detailed Description ==
This is a significant enabler for generating DVD media, other ISOs,
and images more efficiently. It also allows other tools such as mash
or pungi to offload much of the heavy-lifting to the build system.
Longer term, we may be able to reduce the number of tools needed to
manufacture Fedora releases.
== Scope ==
Proposal owners: to implement this change
Release engineering: This feature does require coordination with
release engineering (e.g. changes to installer image generation or
update package delivery.)
