Oracle Linux chroots (temporarily) available in Fedora Copr
by Pavel Raiskup 14 Jun '22

14 Jun '22

Hello, just a quick note - we enabled Oracle Linux chroots in Fedora Copr today, this is temporarily needed by OAMG/LEAPP team for their CI/CD system. Feel free to test those chroots, but please don't heavily depend on them as we don't know when we'll again drop them (preferably use epel/centos-stream chroots instead, they should provide similar build results).

rpkg-util v3 change, moving copr builders to F35
by Pavel Raiskup 28 Jan '22

28 Jan '22

Hello, we are currently preparing Copr build system for migration to Fedora 35, including the builder workers. There's though, at least from the builder perspective, a major `rpkg-util` behavior change [1] (removal of `auto_pack` feature) that many of the Copr projects rely on. This is a bit unexpected as `auto_pack = True` has been the default in Copr for a long time, and the rpkg-util upstream intentions behind the feature were generally misunderstood (even in Copr team). That being said, some of the currently working builds on F34 would fail after the migration to F35. In order to make the migration a bit less dramatic, we plan to migrate in the following steps: 1. Document the feature drop and possible fixes/workarounds see [1], and properly announce the change in advance (here we are _now_). 2. Change the default, and turn off the `auto_pack` feature for relatively short period of time on the current F34 builders (ie autopack=False). This will happen soon in December 2021. The change will naturally trigger the build failures, but a bit earlier so users will be informed sooner ... with a _temporary_ work-around in hand => everyone can provide the file <git-root>/rpkg.conf upstream, and opt-in the old behavior with with content like: [rpkg] # temporary work-around for rpkg-util v2, auto_pack is going to be # removed soon! See: # https://docs.pagure.org/copr.copr/rpkg_util_2_vs_3.html#rpkg-util-v3 auto_pack = True 3. Migrate to Fedora 35, early in January 2022. This will make the `auto_pack = True` work-around non-working, and users will have to adapt, again, see [1]. Of course, anyone is encouraged to migrate to the new syntax **right now**, sooner the better. If done correctly, package can be built both with rpkg-util v2 and v3 [2]. Sorry for inconvenience! Any comment, idea or help is welcome! [1] https://docs.pagure.org/copr.copr/rpkg_util_2_vs_3.html#rpkg-util-v3 [2] https://pagure.io/copr/copr-hello/c/739ff9910ee8a9c76d7e97de2f6176106dc19a0… Pavel

Updated mock-core-configs v36.4 deployed to Fedora Copr
by Pavel Raiskup 21 Dec '21

21 Dec '21

Hello maintainers, just heads-up (on breakage today, I hope). To bring several config fixes (especially for the broken centos-stream chroots), the mock-core-configs was updated today. This though also gave us an opportunity to add EPEL 9 configs. Feel free to experiment with them. Note though Enterprise Linux 9 is not yet available - so the EPEL 9 chroots are currently built against CentOS Stream 9 + EPEL 9 (similarly to what is done officially in Koji ATM). This update also means that 'epel-8' configs disappeared from the package [1]. To avoid build failures - for now - we provide a compat symlink from 'epel-8' config to 'centos+epel-8' in Copr. This basically means EPEL 8 configs haven't been changed at all, for now. Some time early in 2022 we will try to re-configure EPEL 8 chroots against RHEL 8 (subscribed content) + EPEL 8. That's because CentOS 8 goes EOL, [2].

No more builds for Fedora 33, EOL
by Pavel Raiskup 14 Dec '21

14 Dec '21

Hello maintainers! Fedora 33 has been EOL for two weeks already: https://fedorapeople.org/groups/schedule/f-35/f-35-key-tasks.html So I disabled the Fedora 33 chroots now, which started the standard build removal policy, for more info take a look at docs: https://docs.pagure.org/copr.copr/copr_outdated_chroots_removal_policy.html Pavel

fedora-eln-ppc64le added
by Pavel Raiskup 03 Dec '21

03 Dec '21

Hello, just a quick update, I was asked why ELN ppc64le isn't available in Copr - the reason probably was that at the time we were adding other fedora-eln chroots we didn't have ppc64le builders in hands... And when we re-enabled ppc64le builders, we forgot about adding ELN chroot. So I created that chroot a few minutes back. Pavel
