Leap Micro discussion https://etherpad.opensuse.org/p/ReleaseEngineering-leap-micro-discussion-202... Futher discussion on tomorrows Community meeting Thu 16th Dec / 8pm CEST https://etherpad.opensuse.org/p/weeklymeeting20211216 Features: discussion regarding fdk-aac-free / piperwire update and KDE 5.18 LTS consideration for 15.4 with Antonio Larossa armv7 tasks are still missing in Release Checklist for Leap 15.4 https://github.com/openSUSE/openSUSE-release-process/blob/master/Alpha.md ## openSUSE Tumbleweed * Tumbleweed is back on daily snapshots (1 snapshot missed since 1116) * Kernel 5.15.7 * wireplumber as session manager for pipewire * Firefox 95 * GNOME 41.2 * Maintainers are discussing to move to PHP 8.0 (7.x is going EOL, 8.1 not yet ready) * Moving to Ruby 3.0 (or posisbly straight to 3.1 after dec) are ongoing. YaST team is looking at the fallouts * Discussions to move the default python interpreter to 3.10 are underway (3.10 was released beginning of October) ## Richard (Kubic/TW MicroOS) Experimented with kiwi-less, container-first VM image building. Have a working prototype that works entirely in OBS, builds a container using a Dockerfile, takes that container then converts it to a working, bootable, openSUSE VM. k8s 1.23.0 still being packaged for Kubic (really wish upstream k8s did a better job of documenting their changed dependencies...) Investigating adding nerdctl support to Toolbox Investigating buildkit and its limits as a container builder working on a tool to convert existing Tumbleweed (and maybe also Leap) systems to MicroOS and/or MicroOS Desktop ## Max Not available ## Guillaume - Arm Tumbleweed: * 20211214 is in openQA with lots of updates. It will add support to the new Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W. https://www.raspberrypi.com/products/raspberry-pi-zero-2-w/ * Hyper-V support: Testers reported it hangs during boot. This is a bug with timers. See: https://gitlab.com/cki-project/kernel-ark/-/merge_requests/1393/diffs?commit... Leap 15.4: * opencl-headers package is outdated in Leap 15.4 / SLE15-SP4: https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1193617 This prevent armnn to build with opencl support enabled. ## Sarah - s390x * Tumbleweed release not rolling because of compiler bug in PostgreSQL (bug forwarded to IBM) https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1190740 -> dependency to https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1188896 A bugfix from IBM has been tested together with the PostgreSQL14 build. It seems, that it would be fixing the issue. Another workaround (provided bz the GCC Developer at IBM) is to use 12GB of memory for a build because of oom with 4 or 8GB. That is working also in a constraints file as a workaround. s390x kernel issue seems to be looked at https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1192454 (should be under a public product SP3). ## Doug * Membership & Elections * Elections have started * Communications about membership are taking place * Memberships being updated * GNU Health Conference Talk went well * Connected GNU Health Team with a counterpart * Wrote article about new project equipment. Getting approvals from those helping with article content * Community meetings making progress on content to help people learn openSUSE/open source projects Keep through January * openSUSE Conference (02.06 - 04.06) contract from Z-Bau not yet recieved (sent reminder) * Waiting on reply about openSUSE Summit with OSCAL - https://etherpad.opensuse.org/p/weeklymeeting20211202 * No update on wallpaper yet. ## Dirk Not available ## Gerald / Board Not available * Look at notes about elections and membership in #Doug above ## Wolfgang (Package Hub), Scott Bahling Not available ## Maintenance team (Marina or Marcus, Maurizio (m4u)) No news to report.
