#5665: Providing a master CHECKSUMS file for boot.fpo -----------------------------+------------------------ Reporter: shaiton | Owner: rel-eng@… Type: task | Status: new Milestone: Fedora 20 Alpha | Component: other Keywords: | Blocked By: Blocking: | -----------------------------+------------------------ 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

#5721: Need application icons and application descriptions ----------------------------+------------------------ Reporter: rhughes | Owner: rel-eng@… Type: task | Status: new Milestone: Fedora 20 Beta | Component: koji Keywords: | Blocked By: Blocking: | ----------------------------+------------------------ 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. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/5721> Fedora Release Engineering <http://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng> Release Engineering for the Fedora Project

#5678: koji package for cloud images so they can be non-scratch, and garbage collection policies for those packages -----------------------------+------------------------ Reporter: mattdm | Owner: rel-eng@… Type: task | Status: new Milestone: Fedora 20 Alpha | Component: koji Keywords: | Blocked By: Blocking: | -----------------------------+------------------------ Replying to [ticket:3897 mattdm]: > We want to generate non-scratch cloud images. Because of a bug, these currently need to have the name of the architecture in the package. That will be fixed in the Real Soon Future, but in the meantime I'd like to get going with what we have. Could we please create koji packages named > > {{{ > Fedora-19-cloud-x86_64 > Fedora-19-cloud-i386 > Fedora-20-cloud-x86_64 > Fedora-20-cloud-i386 > Fedora-rawhide-cloud-x86_64 > Fedora-rawhide-cloud-i386 > }}} > > And, we would also like to have a custom garbage collection policy for these; even though they are not scratch builds, they don't need to stay around forever. If we can do a nightly builds (ideal), then I think a week is fine; if they are weekly, keeping a month around seems good. Of course, longer is always better. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/5678> Fedora Release Engineering <http://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng> Release Engineering for the Fedora Project

#5622: [RFE] Allow user to (create/)delete private branches -----------------------------+------------------------ Reporter: vondruch | Owner: rel-eng@… Type: enhancement | Status: new Milestone: Fedora 19 Alpha | Component: git Keywords: | Blocked By: Blocking: | -----------------------------+------------------------ I'd like to be able to manage my private branches. For example, in preparation for Ruby 2.0 release, I was pushing my changes to .spec file into Ruby's repository in dist git, into ruby-2.0 branch. This branch is already merged into master for some while and I'd like to delete it, but it is forbidden: {{{ $ git push -f origin :ruby-2.0 remote: + refs/heads/ruby-2.0 ruby vondruch DENIED by fallthru remote: error: hook declined to update refs/heads/ruby-2.0 To ssh://vondruch@pkgs.fedoraproject.org/ruby ! [remote rejected] ruby-2.0 (hook declined) error: failed to push some refs to 'ssh://vondruch@pkgs.fedoraproject.org/ruby' }}} Would it be possible to allow some development branches, which can be created and deleted as well, without need of opening rel-eng tickets etc?

#5215: Stage comps and spin-kickstarts during freezes

#5215: Stage comps and spin-kickstarts during freezes -----------------------------+------------------------ Reporter: adamwill | Owner: rel-eng@… Type: task | Status: new Milestone: Fedora 18 Alpha | Component: git Keywords: | Blocked By: Blocking: | -----------------------------+------------------------ 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. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/5215> Fedora Release Engineering <http://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng> Release Engineering for the Fedora Project

#5223: F18 TODO: automate torrent generation -----------------------------+------------------------ Reporter: ausil | Owner: rel-eng@… Type: task | Status: new Milestone: Fedora 18 Alpha | Component: koji Keywords: | Blocked By: Blocking: | -----------------------------+------------------------ 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. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/5223> Fedora Release Engineering <http://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng> Release Engineering for the Fedora Project

The secondary arches that we are interested in are: arm, ppc, and s390. Ideally we could get a .composeinfo when *all* these arches are complete. But I understand that they have different time schedules and may update at different times. Worst case we look to see if the datetime on the file changes and we can re-import again with the newly added arch. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/5332> Fedora Release Engineering <http://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng> Release Engineering for the Fedora Project
