python3-salt-3004 requires lower python3-zmq version
by Stefan Bluhm 25 May '22

25 May '22

Hello, As of python3-salt-3004 the package gets generated with the automatic requirement of (python3.9dist(pyzmq) < 22 with python3.9dist(pyzmq) > 19.0.2) This requirement hasn't been there for the python3-salt-3002 version and hasn't been specifically set in the SPEC file. Where would I look for identifying the issue? I guess this would be at https://github.com/saltstack/salt ? Enterprise Linux 9 ships with python3-zmq-22.3.0 Thanks, Stefan

Uyuni 2022.05 is released!
by Julio Gonzalez 10 May '22

10 May '22

IMPORTANT NOTE: The release is done, but it seems OpenBuildService is a bit overloaded now, so we recommend waiting at least a few hours before applying the update, to give more time for the mirrors to sync We are happy to announce the immediate availability of Uyuni 2022.05 At https://www.uyuni-project.org/pages/stable-version.html you will find all the resources you need to start working with Uyuni 2022.05, including the release notes, documentation, requirements and setup instructions. VERY IMPORTANT: Always read the release notes! If you are updating from an Uyuni version older than 2021.06, a major upgrade procedure is required. This is the list of highlights for this release: * Reporting Database documentation * spacewalk-report now uses data from the reporting database * Adding systems with failed actions to System Set Manager * Technology Preview: JSON over HTTP API Remember that Uyuni will follow a rolling release planning, so the next version will contain bugfixes for this one and any new features. There will be no maintenance of 2022.05 As always, we hope you will enjoy Uyuni 2022.05 and we invite everyone of you to send us your feedback [1] and of course your patches, if you can contribute. Happy hacking! [1] https://www.uyuni-project.org/pages/contact.html -- Julio González Gil Release Engineer, SUSE Manager and Uyuni jgonzalez(a)suse.com

Overview Coverage XMLRPC methods in spacecmd
by Dominik Wombacher 08 May '22

08 May '22

Hi, I was interested to see how many XMLRPC methods are available in spacecmd, without using the generic api function. Results based on the Uyuni Master branch as of today: Total: 721 Available: 336 Missing: 385 I wrote a quick & dirty bash script for the comparison, so it might not 100% accurate neither elegant, but gives a good indicator. When it comes to Automation, for example Ansible, I like using spacecmd under the hood and build some wrapper around. That leaves the heavy lifting and error handling with spacecmd, without re-inventing the wheel by creating new python modules that mostly contain the same code as spacecmd already does. Therefore I plan to implement some of the missing methods within the next time, for my needs most interesting will probably be: - ansible - actionchain - image* - recurringaction - saltkey - system (some of them like changeProxy or getConnectionPath) - user.external Just wanted to share that with you, the Bash Script I wrote and the results as csv file are also attached if someone is interested and want to take a look. Cheers Dominik -- The Wombelix Post https://dominik.wombacher.cc

JUnit5 in master
by Cedric Bosdonnat 07 Apr '22

07 Apr '22

Hi all, I just merged the migration from JUnit3 to JUnit5 to master. For you this means: * You can use all the goodness of JUnit5 features, but do not enable parallel execution without carefull testing * Any new JUnit3 test you write will NOT be executed by the CI What makes a JUnit5 test? * Every test method needs to be annotated with org.junit.jupiter.api.Test * Every setup and teardown need to be annotated too * TestCase is no longer a base class for test classes * You need to statically import assertions from org.junit.jupiter.api.Assertions Checkout the help page for more details on JUnit5: https://junit.org/junit5/docs/current/user-guide/#writing-tests -- Cedric

IMPORTANT: Broken salt communications between minions and master on 2022.02, after the last fixes for Salt CVEs
by Julio Gonzalez 01 Apr '22

01 Apr '22

Hello, If you suddenly see at your minions: 2022-03-28 13:19:41,880 [salt.crypt :743 ][ERROR ][15942] Sign-in attempt failed: {'publish_port': 4505, 'pub_key': '-----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY----- \n...\n-----END PUBLIC KEY-----\n''enc': 'pub','sig': ".."} 2022-03-28 13:19:41,885 [salt.minion :1056][ERROR ][15942] Error while bringing up minion for multi-master. Is master at salt-master-server.tf.local responding? That's a consecuence of the fixes for the last Salt CVEs. The official solution is updating to Uyuni 2022.03 If you want to stay on 2022.02, this is an unofficial, untested and unsupported solution: - Apply the updates for the Salt Master on the server - Resync all client tools - Update the salt minon at all salt clients Best regards. -- Julio González Gil Release Engineer, SUSE Manager and Uyuni jgonzalez(a)suse.com
