Week 2016/23 will go into the history books as the week a Tumbleweed snapshot sneaked through all openQA tests, hiding a breakage most users experienced. I’d like to apologize for the troubles you had with the 20160605 snapshot. I will explain at the end of the post how this could happen and how we plan on preventing such issues in the future. [...] In order to avoid such issues in the future we’re planning on a ‘Tumbleweed-to-TumbleweedNext’ upgrade test in openQA: it will install what is currently published on FTP and then try to upgrade to what will come next. This can’t be done with disk images of Tumbleweed, but really needs to be a new install every time. But the complexity is worth the effort in order to avoid such issues.
Well handled! Thanks for the explanation. This inspires confidence in the Tumbleweed system. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
