All meeting minutes can be found here: https://etherpad.opensuse.org/p/ReleaseEngineering-meeting Meeting is hosted here https://meet.opensuse.org/ReleaseEngineeringMeeting ## Participants Richard,guillaume_g, lkocman, deneb_alpha, dleuenberger, wengel, maxlin, dirk, gp (late), sbahling ## Leap Additional two to three retro reviews will have to be done https://etherpad.opensuse.org/p/ReleaseEngineering-Leap-15.3-retro-20200616 We still have to process <20 what did go well and about 170 what didn't go well. (See <break> points) 15.3 - Selinux won't boot without selinux policy https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1187326 15.4 Feature planning in progress - https://en.opensuse.org/Feature_Planning_15.4 Deadline for all (SLE) features in is on 26th June. So we have one week to add some larger changes that require updates on SLE side. SLE confirmed that they're flexible until August (evaluation deadline). The June 26th is mainly for SUSE's Partner features. Next steps with public bugzilla product this Friday (Vincent, Gerald) Do we we want to open an early feature for some easy "Multimedia codecs offer" on the first boot/welcome screen? We would have to invite legal from the very beginning. The rebuild of factory refresh is still in progress: https://build.opensuse.org/project/monitor/openSUSE:Backports:SLE-15-SP4:Fac... https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/openSUSE:Backports:SLE-15-SP4:SLECan... is still in progress. The idea is to identify packages in SLE that block us on Backports refresh from factory. And update these packages in SLE. Dominique: Did SLE have perhaps some recent deal with one codec pack. zypper patch issues: Lubos will announce three extra review rounds for Leap 15.3 retro on opensuse-factory/project Internal summary of Leap 15.3 retro will happen next Wednesday (usual PAM slot). Addresses for openSUSE Leap 15.3 DVD boxes were handed off. Stay tuned! Distribution is on the way. Delivered Issues with mirrors TBD ## openSUSE Tumbleweed * KDE Frameworks 5.83 in snapshot 0616 and Plasma 5.22.1 in 0620 * 2 kernel updates (5.12.10 in 0615 and 5.12.12 in 0621) * We still have daily snapshots, but OBS seems to move quite slowly, making staging projects a bit painful at the moment (i.e ceph, samba, Firefox and chromium constantly being somewhere on the blocking path) * systemd 248 should hopefully be ready soon - we are in a small interlock with sysuser-tools, which turned out to be a bit fragile when it comes to the update order of packages. Getting enough hints for zypp in place is tricky ## Richard (Kubic/TW MicroOS) * Discussions about disabling post-boot kernel module loading on MicroOS to further ensure system immutability - community decided to keep things as they are. * Introduced new 'k3s' images providing base MicroOS with k3s pre- installed, as expected also for SLE Micro 5.1 - currently untested, openQA enablement ongoing * Kubic: Discussion to drop cilium packaging in lieu of relying on upstream containers - community agreed but but awaiting changes to kubicd/patterns to facilitate the drop. ## Max Discussion about product repositories that we provide to SUMA team. Could we perhaps also consume our update repos from the api see https://jira.suse.com/browse/OPENSUSE-35 Looking into https://build.opensuse.org/project/monitor/openSUSE:Backports:SLE-15-SP4:Fac... and :SLECandidates ## Guillaume - Arm Tumbleweed: * Rolling Leap 15.3: * DTB are missing, which breaks some Arm boards - https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1186928 * aarch64: * Still not able to build locally (osc build --vm-type=kvm) for aarch64 with a Tumbleweed host. https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1183653 * Armv7: NET ISO now works. openQA detected few packages which are uninstallable. Fixes are on the way. WSL: Stalled: WIP to have WSL on aarch64 on https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/home:Guillaume_G:WSL The goal is to have WSL-DistroLauncher package built for aarch64. Help welcomed. No updates ## Sarah - s390x Not available ## Doug Not available. Big thanks to Doug and the team behind openSUSE Conference!!! +1 ## Dirk more Step / armv7 build issues tackled with help from many others worked on openSUSE:Factory:ARM:Rings:1-MinimalX fixes (newlib etc) ## Gerald No updates. ## Wolfgang (Package Hub), Scott Bahling Another try to update openQA in openSUSE:Backports:SLE-15-SP3 where two perl dependencies also need to be updated but they make the build fail, still investigating. postgresql related. SLE plans to build additional packages which are currently out of date. Done by Marcus last week. ## Adrian - CtLG or openSUSE Step How do we reference to CODE 15. We will earn the advantage of "single build" in Webui. One thing is how we label it in webui and the other critical is how the repositories are called. lkocman: my preference from repository point of view would be let's refer to it as if it would be SLE. Gerald: Good idea to use poll for deciding the name. Some terms might not be workable (check with marketing). Should be simple and short. Totally agree with Lubos to make it easy to grasp for outsiders.
