Any discussion about how to move forward with the Mesa situation? Now that 24.2.1 is out even. I know there was a bug, but the new release also has a long list of fixed issues. Den ons 4 sep. 2024 kl 14:13 skrev Lubos Kocman via openSUSE Factory < factory@lists.opensuse.org>:

Branding related Initialwork on ultrawide wallpaper for Tumbleweed Experiments with geo-based wallpapers for 16.0 https://github.com/lkocman/geo-wallpapers I'm bit unhappy about current packaging of wallpapers https://etherpad.opensuse.org/p/lkocman-packaging

## openSUSE Tumbleweed (DimStar)

openSUSE:Factory build fail stats: 134 failed 23 unresolvable (last week 15 failed, 9 unresolvable) https://tinyurl.com/ysy4nnnz (big increase due to more things trying to rebuild with gcc14; https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/openSUSE:Factory:Rebuild shows the resutls when we'd use rebuild=transitive, i.e 559 failed packages)

424 requests accepted in the last week

Most relevant changes:

Switch to GCC14 as default compiler in 20240827 (emacs was locked on GCC13 as it fails test suite with gcc13)

Kernel 6.10.7

Other updates:

NetworkManager 1.48.10

openSSH 9.8p1

python numpy2 - by far not everything is ready for that, so numpy 1.x will be re-introduced

Blocked:

perl-Bootloader to be renamed to update-bootloader, openQA tests needs updating https://progress.opensuse.org/issues/165686

python-Sphinx 8.0.2: causes a few breakages, Staging:L

Boost 1.86: LibreOffice fails to build

go 1.23 as new distro default: ignition fails to build (https://github.com/coreos/ignition/issues/1931)

### longer-lasting topics

Switch default LSM from AppArmor to SELinux, see

https://lists.opensuse.org/archives/list/factory@lists.opensuse.org/thread/Y...

## Richard (Aeon+botmaster) Recovering after weeks of serious illness. Catching up with everything that happened in the past weeks. Not aware of any burning issues with Aeon. Looking forward to picking up Aeon/tik and pushng them towards release.. Reading up on some discussions regarding tuning up the deploment of opensuse-release-tools to botmaster

Q, Toying with the idea of volunteering Aeon as an exemplar/pathfinder for git workflow, does that sound feasible? lkocman: We do already have git for Leap:16.0:Images, but the main image agama-installer-Leap is currently built in openSUSE:Leap:16.0

## Max

Leap 16.0 * Merged kde packages to Leap 16.0, some kapps are pending in staging still, the requirement for patterns-kde is fulfilled at least. Max mentioned that we finally broke the 1000 packages count in 16.0 :-) * Disabled devel_web pattern for the time being until we know the desicision about virtualization package * Working on check_source make it to made submission on hold if the target package exist in SLFO * A script has uploaded SLFO packagelist to

https://build.opensuse.org/projects/openSUSE:Leap:16.0:Staging/packages/dash... in case you want to adjust your tooling against SLFO packagelist and don't want to checkout gittree every time lkocman: agama - KDE was added as an option for Leap 16.0 lkocman: Dimstar mentioned that perhaps we want to make a storage HW request for 16.0, as we'll build more trees and images than in 15.3+ (where we started to use adi stagings only). Adrian: the entire model of stagings might change, there is multiple possibilities. It's also the data transfer aside from pure storage. Max: Same situation with staging will happen soon on Tumbleweed.

## Guillaume - Arm

Tumbleweed: * Rolling * Submitted fixes for some build failures related to GCC14 (starting with packages from ring1) * User complained about missing web browsers for armv7 -

https://lists.opensuse.org/archives/list/arm@lists.opensuse.org/thread/5LLTU...

Leap 15.5: * RPi3 boot problem related to a kernel update https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1225352

Leap 15.6: * No blocker

## Sarah - s390x * Tumbleweed rolling * s390-tools are updated

Topic openSUSE on Hercules * hercules package not compatible with openSUSE Tumbleweed (x86) any more -> new project on Github https://github.com/SDL-Hercules-390/hyperion -> submitted Hints about special instructions in Hercules: https://www.mail-archive.com/linux-390@vm.marist.edu/msg74185.html

Kernel problem with Leap/Tumbleweed on new Hercules emulator (zram kernel trace): https://www.mail-archive.com/linux-390@vm.marist.edu/msg74187.html -> takeover by SUSE (Marcela)

AI packages by IBM installable with anaconda Python Installer (conda install): RedBook AI for Linux on Z published: https://ibm.github.io/ai-on-z-101/blog/archive/2024/ ( https://lists.opensuse.org/archives/list/zsystems@lists.opensuse.org/thread/... )

User feedback about reasons for switching from Leap to Tumbleweed (because of Upgrade problems): https://www.mail-archive.com/linux-390@vm.marist.edu/msg74188.html Leap 16.0 will very likely have similar maintenance workflow as Leap Micro 6.1, which does not utilize :Update project. Perhaps some of these issues would simply go away by design. lkocman: the mentioned upgrade issues were a past issue which was already resolved. We've clarified it over email.

need more maintainers for future chromium updates after Andreas Stieger stepped down.

## Adrian - OBS

Heads up: planning regarding offline installer for Agama.

## Bernhard - Slowroll

had trouble from incompatible dbus-1 update => reverted preparing next version bump to 20240901 - planned in a week

## Bernhard - reproducible builds

see https://lists.opensuse.org/archives/list/factory@lists.opensuse.org/thread/2...

I plan to attend the r-b summit in Hamburg 2024-09-17

want to see merged https://github.com/openSUSE/openSUSE-release-tools/pull/3129 => needs change to create adiN:rb subproject to not block progress of submissions with slow builds (e.g. chromium 18h+) or failing timebombs (e.g. python-gpstime)

## Adam - Git Workflow

{wip} migrating project workflow to RabbitMQ + polling (in case events lost)

TODO: migrate NodeJS devel project after above is done

## Open Floor lkocman: Sebastian Riedel raised a problem with ownership of legal-auto.py (OSRT). We got the change it, but nobody seem to be officially owning the tool. Maybe move it into SUSE org.
