I would like to clarify a doubt that I have.

Is this a public meeting? Can anyone attend who wants to?


Greetings,

Adrian

## Leap

Leap 15.5 (SLE based) background submission still in progress (have to

Leap oss/non-oss repos 15.3 ware republished on ftp-prod and ftp-stage
from OBS (was boo#1202116) big thanks to Adrian.

Leap Micro 5.3 update repo blocks Beta announcement

Plan to use service for openSUSE Leap 15.5 repo files (advice from
Michel Andres). We'll follow factory first.
https://code.opensuse.org/leap/features/issue/91

## openSUSE Tumbleweed

openSUSE:Factory build fail stats: 255 failed, 11 unresolvable (1 week
ago: 1983/34)

* The glibc/libxml2-rebuild snapshot put a lot of issues on the mirror
infra - up to the point where download.o.o was dropping packages (to
many mirrors pulling in parallel to the users, the 2-hour hold is not
enough for such large snapshots)

* KDE Plasma 5.25.5 is in the queue

* GNOME 43 release candidate is packaged up in GNOME:Next. openQA over
the live iso generated from it looks reasonably good. (Extensions were
not tested, yet so we expect that it won't yet be compatible)


## Richard (MicroOS)

BCI-for-Tumbleweed containers are progressing slowly
Richard moving his daily driver to another laptop, using the exercise
as a detailed UX re-evaluation of MicroOS
Lots of experimentation with FDE/Split disk configuration, such as
transactional / on SSD and /var, /home, and similar on a HDD

## Max

Not available
* The Backports checker is finished and the PR is open for review on
Github and is open for suggestions
 https://github.com/openSUSE/openSUSE-release-tools/pull/2848
* Regarding to missing liborcus issue on the latest Leap snapshot,
skippkg-finder removes liborcus 0.16 from the ftp-tree after it sees
liborcus 0.17 was there, we need to update snpshots repo that should
fix this problem

Trying to work to solve the missing liborcus-0.16.so.0 problem for Leap
15.5
Lubos: to request a snapshot-update today

*Drop python2* packages completely at the end of devel phase. We keep
the interpret as a compromise as of now. dimstar: even python2 stuff
still in TW

lkocman to setup meeting for the next steps
Rough idea: announce, keep interpret for some time to allow developer
to rebuild packages, drop it with certain milestone (prior to Beta).
Max: will check how many package still rely on python2 interpret(Alpha
phase)

## Guillaume - Arm

Tumbleweed:
    * Snapshot 20220906 is in openQA. It took a while to rebuild all
Factory packages for Arm (needed by glibc/libxml2 updates).
    * armv6 not in good shapes, mainly due to rust not built (build
hangs in OBS, so armv6 build has been disabled)

Leap:
    * Started to work on 15.5/Backports-SP5 packages/images

ALP:
    * No update this week


## Sarah - s390

DimStar: s390x is rolling again. Snapshot 0823 has been published
(ahead of intel x86_64 thats on 0822).
DimStar: same issue again, we have an issue with workers
lkocman: to reach out to Sarah and Ihno (these issues are related to
openQA - https://progress.opensuse.org/issues/115583 /
https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1202821).

Collected tasks for Open Source Day Mentees (a lot of package updates
at the end of next week)
Sarah has been nominated for a keynote Pannel Dicussion at the IBM Z
day related to community contributions:
https://www.ibm.com/community/z/ibm-zday-2022/

## Doug

* KDE Akademy contract signed.
* contribute.o.o online (thx hellcp & those helping with ymls)
* Sent out birthday packages to reddit winners -
https://www.reddit.com/r/openSUSE/comments/wjxiqq/happy_birthday_opensuse/
* ALP
* Creating & discussing ALP marketing info
* Plan to identify info & what help is needed with updating landing
page & get.o.o

Trying to keep the Factory-ARM project building

Will be on vacation for the next two weeks

## Wolfgang (Package Hub), Scott Bahling

Not available

sbahling: Still fixing Package Hub 15 SP4. Around 3500 packages missing
compared to SP3. Almost daily customer issue reports. Requires
Maintenance Service Center requests for channel modification to
process. Seems to be a slow process. Priority on KDE and monitoring-
plugins packages.

## Maintenance team (Marina or Marcus, Maurizio (m4u))

gtk release broke 15.4 update stack. Pushing emergency update to fix
this 15.5
Leap Micro 5.3 - publishing empty repo could fix the issues.

openQA Leap 15.4 - some updates are not getting approved, QE seems to
be not responding.

test update should go out in next test ours, the openSUSE setup is not
yet done, we need to setup backports checks and pool repos, we have to
do work on our side.
Marcus mailed us with project config.

The openSUSE / SLE side in IBS it seems to be ready, on openSUSE side
there is a lot of setup that needs to be done first.

Adrian: the pool repos should be in place now.

Some openQA issues in one of the 15.4 groups (timeout), Marcus messaged
QE core, however there seems to be no activity.

## Adrian - OBS

no update on SR mirroring issue (no feedback loop for submit request
creators)

## Open Floor

Meeting with QA performance team tomorrow at 9am (teams, please ping me
if you want to send invitation). This is regarding the performance
benchmark in between x86_64-v3 build vs build settings that we have in
factory. No plan how to test hwcaps option yet.
