A lot of failures in regards to bootloader / fs-probing https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1216563 Potential Radeon RX7000 series issue with updated kernel in 15 SP5/15.5 https://news.opensuse.org/2023/10/13/leap-155-amdgpu-rx7000-freeze/ RX7000 users please postpone the kernel update until the issue is clarified. In this relation enablement of PyTorch on 7900XTX is a teaser (raised with SLE team) https://www.tomshardware.com/news/amd-enables-rocm-and-pytorch-on-radeon-rx-... lkocman: Electron web for software-o-o comming. (raised on last week's community weekly meeting). Still on todo, agreed to do a xdg-open launcher Hackweek reminder 6-10 November https://hackweek.opensuse.org (beautiful GOT theme) https://www.linkedin.com/posts/thomasdigiacomo_suses-23rd-hack-week-is-comin... openSUSE Booth at openALT (Brno, CZ) 11-12th November. Three talks, openSUSE CDN (many thanks to Bernhard for inputs), Leap 16.0?, Leap Micro 5.5 Dolomite and Marble will have parallel availability, we still plan to support Leap Micro 5.5 until October 2024. Let's revisit what "container hosts" we plan to make available to community. ## openSUSE Tumbleweed (ana) openSUSE:Factory build fail stats: 49 failed 33 unresolvable (last week: 53 failed, 21 unresolvable) https://tinyurl.com/ysy4nnnz Most relevant updates this week: * GNOME 45.1 * KDE Frameworks 5.111.0 * Linux Kernel 6.5.8 * yast2 and modules 5.0.x * redis 7.2.2 Updates waiting in staging: * binutils 2.41 * KDE Plasma 5.27.9 * zlib 1.3 * HPC stack: Dropping openmpi1, openmpi2, openmpi3 ## Richard (Aeon) Not available ## Bernhard (Slowroll) Not available ## Max Not available ## Guillaume - Arm Not available ## Sarah - s390x * Tumbleweed * SUSE is replacing the mainframe and we will receive some more build nodes -> building is already improved, but it does not come to new Tumbleweed releases gzip: s390x bug already fixed upstream, but gcc option required for successful build for current version https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/1119912?notification_id=43810841 ## Doug * Will announce logo contest for the following logos: * openSUSE * Tumbleweed * Leap * Slowroll * Kalpa - details - https://en.opensuse.org/Logocontest * Use cases survey ends Oct. 31 - 2069 complete * openSUSE.Asia Summit had about 100 attendees * Starting TSP payments * Shipped marketing material for two events * Collaboritng with Fedora for Creative Freedom Summit * Using openSUSE's Jitsi instance (fully remote event) * Update at community meeting about upgrading version * Open CFPs * SCALE (Deadline Nov. 1) https://www.socallinuxexpo.org/scale/21x/cfp * FOSS Backstage * Creative Freedom Summit (Deadline Nov. 24) https://creativefreedomsummit.com/call-for-papers-2024-creative-freedom-summ... * Previous years videos - https://peertube.linuxrocks.online/c/creativefreedom/videos Static * oSC24 dates June 27 to 29 reserved (Thursday - Saturday) * FOSDEM Bus * AI topics (static) * Nothing new ## Dirk Not available * usual bunch of factory package updates, supporting python 3.12 enablement ## Wolfgang (Package Hub), Scott Bahling - receiving reports of missing dependencies (for SP5), generating a full list which are missing Wolfgang: regarding build power, I managed to get workers running, but they're still crashing / rebooting. All workers in OBS/IBS are investigated, both are running at different kernel version. task for lkocman: The problem statement (SLES/SLED expectations) ## Maintenance team (Marcus or Maurizio (m4u)) No issues. Internal request to add php8.1 to Package HUB. Regarding AMD issue, kernel update is scheduled for a second Tuesday of the month. ## Adrian - OBS Not available ## Simon (Leap Replacement/Linarite) Not available ## Open Floor - Next Wednesday is November 1st, a holiday in many places, should we cancel the meeting? Monday not Wednesday then? Seems like we'll have multiple attendeds who will be online. So not cancelling. RPM 4.19? Lubos, you want to fill in this with some context from yesterday's meeting? jsc#PED-7197 - openned against ALP From Dan Cermak: It would be beneficial to have RPM 4.19 in the ALP code stream. RPM 4.19 has a big breaking change for us: it ships its own sysusers provides & requires generator that conflicts with our version provided by sysuser-tools that was originally written by Thorsten Kukuk. This means that shipping rpm 4.19 also requires us to revisit all packages that use the sysusers generators. Imho we should implement this change ASAP in ALP as long as the code stream is still young and we can have potentially breaking changes. The longer we delay it, the harder it will become to implement.
