Bug ID: 1603146
Summary: Review Request: cockpit-ostree - Cockpit user
interface for rpm-ostree
Product: Fedora
Version: rawhide
Component: Package Review
Severity: medium
Priority: medium
Assignee: nobody(a)fedoraproject.org
Reporter: mpitt(a)redhat.com
QA Contact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org
CC: package-review(a)lists.fedoraproject.org
Spec URL:
https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit-ostree/blob/master/cockpit-ost...
The @VERSION@ gets replaced with the release number from the tag, i. e. "173".
Otherwise the file is as-is. The replaced version is in the upstream release at
https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit-ostree/releases, and in COPR:
https://copr-dist-git.fedorainfracloud.org/cgit/@cockpit/cockpit-preview/...
SRPM URL:
https://copr-be.cloud.fedoraproject.org/results/@cockpit/cockpit-preview/...

Description: Cockpit component for managing software updates for ostree based
systems
Fedora Account System Username: martinpitt (myself) or cockpit (the Cockpit CI
bot that will actually upload the release, like for the cockpit package)
The "cockpit-ostree" rpm subpackage is currently built by the cockpit srpm. It
is only useful on Atomic (Fedora and RHEL), so in downstream RHEL building it
together with all the other cockpit packages is rather difficult: the same
build needs to be shipped in multiple different products with different RPM
filters. This gets even more hairy in the next RHEL version (please ask me for
details in private, I can't elaborate on a public issue).
From an upstream POV it also makes sense to maintain cockpit-ostree separately,
as different people may eventually maintain it, and it does not need a lot of
releases as it changes rather seldomly.
For these reasons we recently moved the code into a separate cockpit-ostree
upstream project: https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit-ostree/ .
Functionality wise there would not be any changes, the code was imported
without modifications (other than the build system and minor test adjustments).
I would like to do the same srpm split in Fedora (and RHEL downstream) as well.
Note that the first upstream release is "173" to be newer than the last cockpit
release (172), so that upgrades work smoothly.
As soon as this lands, I will drop the cockpit-ostree RPM from cockpit.src.rpm.
