koji in PiPy/support of setup.py
by Pavol Babincak 04 Oct '17

04 Oct '17

Hi, I'm using koji as a python package in my scripts. Usually I develop them inside of a virtual environment. I do not use system packages[1] in virtualenv. Currently I'm not able to install koji and it dependencies inside virtualenv easily. Having koji in PiPy would help me. That way I can just specify it in my requirements.txt or in install_requires of my setup.py. I *guess*[2] one way to do that is to have setup.py in koji code and add some extra steps as part of the release process to publish it there. What do you think about this? For some time now I use my own setup.py. I guess it is not ready for PR so I'd love to see comments on this as well: https://pagure.io/fork/pbabinca/koji/blob/setup_WIP/f/setup.py [1] Among other reasons I'd like to have environment isolated from the system as much as possible. [2] I have never maintained package on PiPy. -- Pavol Babincak

excluding packages from external repo
by Mátyás Selmeci 17 Feb '17

Hi, We have a build tag named dist-el7-build that contains two external repos: dist-el7-centos73, which contains the base OS packages for CentOS 7, and dist-el7-centos73-updates which contains updated packages for CentOS 7. Normally, we would like the packages from dist-el7-centos73-updates to take precedence since they're newer, but not for a specific package, selinux-policy. Is there a way I can keep selinux-policy from being brought in from dist-el7-centos73-updates? I didn't see a way to do that by editing the external repo definiton, so my idea is this: 1. Create a new tag named el7-updates that contains just the dist-el7-centos73-updates external repo 2. Have dist-el7-build inherit from el7-updates, but use --pkg-filter to somehow exclude selinux-policy; I'm not sure about that, though, since I don't know if --pkg-filter is inclusive or exclusive Would that work? Do you have better suggestions? Thanks, -Mat -- Mátyás (Mat) Selmeci Open Science Grid Software Team / Center for High-Throughput Computing University of Wisconsin-Madison Department of Computer Sciences

Happy Birthday Koji!
by Mike McLean 15 Feb '17

15 Feb '17

Today marks the ten year anniversary of the initial publication of Koji. Koji grew out of Red Hat's internal Brew build system. It was initially adopted in Fedora, but has since found use in many other places including CentOS, Scientific Linux, Kolab, TomTom, and Amazon. The past year or so has seen a pronounced increase in Koji activity. Since we've moved to Pagure, it's become much easier for folks to contribute. It's an exciting time as Koji grows to meet new challenges in building Linux distributions! Thank you to everyone who has helped along the way and to those who will help in the future!
