#18: fedora-livedvd-developer.ks fails to compose ------------------------------+--------------------------------------------- Reporter: rishi | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: critical | Milestone: Fedora 10 GA Component: fedora-developer | Keywords: ------------------------------+--------------------------------------------- fedora-livedvd-developer.ks contains sysprof, which has been removed from Fedora to Livna because it needs a kernel module. Due to this the spin fails to compose. The attached patch fixes this issue. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/spin-kickstarts/ticket/18> spin-kickstarts <https://fedorahosted.org/spin-kickstarts/> Kickstarts that the Spin SIG reviews, tests, maintains and releases (as a package).

AOS - snippets
by David Huff 06 Jan '09

06 Jan '09

We would like to include a base-pkg list in the snippets directory for the Appliance operating system definition or spin. One of the main pourposes of the AOS is to define a minimal package set that others can build on. The hope is that this package set will evolve overtime.

Fun with pungi
by Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams 25 Nov '08

25 Nov '08

On a lark, I decided to use pungi against fedora-livecd-desktop.ks in order to produce smaller Rawhide install media. After a few false starts I managed to get working media, and I installed to an external USB HD. The install booted, but firstboot soiled itself due to a missing libdb-4.5.so. I booted the rescue media in order to install it, but I discovered that it wasn't even on the media. Long story short, the following packages were not included on the media or even in the package download cache: compat-db45 hunspell hunspell-en I'm sure that pungi is inevitably to blame, but I'm wondering if we shouldn't add those packages to fedora-livecd-desktop.ks and/or fedora-live-base.ks in the meantime. -- Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams <ivazqueznet(a)gmail.com> PLEASE don't CC me; I'm already subscribed

Games spin is out for F10
by Jeroen van Meeuwen 24 Nov '08

24 Nov '08

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Regrettably, we have to drop the Games spin for a release with F10 GA. There has been problems composing this spin for F10-Preview, and there's problems popping up real close to release (which is right now). It's actually caused by a missing package (simple fix) but the real problem is whether the maintainer(s) fix(es) the problem and actually test(s) the spin. This seems to have not been the case for the Games spin over the course of the last few weeks, and once we hand over a couple of kickstarts for Release Engineering to compose, we need to be sure they do not run into problems for they lack the ability to take over the maintainers work and fix the kickstart -a workflow related thing. We (as the Spin SIG) could step in and nurture the kickstart, but not this close to final GA, and not if it causes Rel. Eng. to need to through compose/fail/feedback/re-compose loops for every fix that should have been committed by the maintainer already. Kind regards, Jeroen van Meeuwen - -kanarip -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAkklUigACgkQKN6f2pNCvwj9zACg1JECHQE/cYEQ1WpDLBYjG2CZ qV4AmgKoMr9o2MibR3JA4oeS8MW/Kl/X =ysjp -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Having processes rely on knowledgeable individuals is not scalable, as we've found to our (unsurprised) dismay in Documentation. Having the technical guidelines documented is a great step but there's more to do to prevent spin owner frustration. Bryan Kearney went a good ways toward a more detailed document at: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Bkearney/ProposedSpinProcess Are we waiting for the Spins SIG to find the next actions, and drive this to completion? Or is this hanging elsewhere? -- Paul W.
