!!! HEADS UP WE ARE BACK USING JITSI !!! https://meet.opensuse.org/ReleaseEngineeringMeeting How to join the meeting? https://calendar.opensuse.org/teams/release/events/opensuse_release_engineer... All meeting minutes can be found here: https://etherpad.opensuse.org/p/ReleaseEngineering-meeting ## Attendees ana,guillaumeg, DimStar, lkocman, DocB, bmwiedemann,maxlin ## Leap Leap 15.6 Beta build Build630.1 bringing fix to Virtualbox was published yesterday in the evening. Publishing seem to be stuck as the data is not available on download-o-o . I did raise it with autobuild (#team-dist) aarch64 has an issue with running firefox with <= 4GB of memory. In comparison chromium seems to work with 2GB. This is a problems ince our minimal requirements for GNOME states 3GB https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1221314 Leap 15.6 Beta known issues page https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Known_bugs_15.6# How do we see that submissions to SUSE:SLE-15-SP6:GA got accepted? The sync state doesn't work, easiest is to check particular package in SUSE:SLE-15-SP6:GA in OBS. Ongoing Plasma 5.27.1 update https://code.opensuse.org/leap/features/issue/154 based on Feedback from openSUSE Leap future strategy discussion with Rick Spencer on Friday in Prague. Leap 15.6 appliances are currently blocked at https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1213595 All openQA runs with 15.5 and 15.6 isos booted off USB fail: https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/3992142#step/finish_desktop/2 It is visible that udev prefers the by-label link to sda instead of sda1 for some reason, even though https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1213185 implies that the fix for https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/28468 got backported. ## openSUSE Tumbleweed (DimStar) openSUSE:Factory build fail stats: 136 failed 47 unresolvable (last week 139 failed, 33 unresolvable) https://tinyurl.com/ysy4nnnz => Around ~80 are python packages that are still failing to build with Python 3.12 Most relevant updates: * Linux Kernel Longterm 6.6.21 * libpng 1.6.43 * poppler 24.03.0 * procps 14.5+0 * wine 9.4 * buildah 1.35.0 * MozillaFirefox 123.0.1 * libreoffice 24.2.1.2, * update openSUSE-build-key (new suse container key!) * KDE Frameworks and Plasma 6 + KDE Gear 24.02.0 (QA in progress for snapshot 0311) Max: asking about Plasma 5 parallel availability in TW. Plasma 6 obsoletes Plasma 5, so most were already deleted. Updates waiting / work still in progress: * kernel-source 6.7.9, to be accepted later today * systemd 255.3 ( SR#1152118), needs updated "build" package and fixed transactional-updates, this is blocking rpmlint Dominique: Adrian any update on the -build package for systemd-255.3? Adrian: releasing it as maintenance update will take some time. You'll get it in next minutes for Factory. * Still handle all issues for the new KDE fw + plasma * GCC 14: second phase ongoing, use gcc14 as the default compiler (Staging:Gcc7) * RPM 4.19.1.1 + 4.20 * RPM 4.19.1.1 (user/group dependencies), Packages not included in rings getting updates, still some more to go, see https://lists.opensuse.org/archives/list/factory@lists.opensuse.org/thread/H... * Preparations for RPM 4.20, %patchN won't be supported anymore, see https://lists.opensuse.org/archives/list/factory@lists.opensuse.org/thread/Y... * Python 3.12+removal of 3.9 modules: Not all modules fixed to build with Python 3.12, removal of python 3.9 modules blocked by build failures. Python3.9 interpreter would stay for some time more. * go1.22 as default go version, blocked on i586 with packages which export CGO_ENABLED=0 and go build -buildmode pie https://github.com/golang/go/issues/64875 (needs to update ~70 packages) * autoconf 2.72, waiting libreoffice; fixed in version 24.2.2 in devel prj (unstable tree) * llvm 18, some packages FTBFS * shadow 4.15.0, openQA tests failing * libxml 2.12.1, on hold, no progress * dbus-broker as default dbus session manager, now everything builds, two openQA checks failing.

We should add it back. https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1217840 Doug: rpmlint GSOC topic. Neal will be helping to mentor that. https://github.com/openSUSE/mentoring/issues/204 * Leap 15.6/Backports SP6: - No update ## Sarah - s390x Not available * Second mainframe is up and running -> Many builds are running at the moment (also gcc) and the manframe is not really stable -> waiting for a new Tumbleweed release * gcc bug (2021) reactivated related to memory optimization on the mainframe: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=101523 * related openSUSE Bug (not really informative): https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1188441 GPG keys for s390x, PPCle and RISC-V expired in openSUSE-build-key: https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1220993 ## Doug Not available * bugzilla.opensuse.org * Submitted Bug 1220916 * Asked to delete - If you experience any difficulties or find any issues, please, report to SUSE Bugzilla Team (email) * Contribution Workshops * More sign ups at https://etherpad.opensuse.org/p/openSUSE-Contribution-Workshop * Episode 3 - Bumping "Packaging Guidelines" to a later date and will have a learning "how to report bugs" video * Episode 4 - Language-specific packaging - Rust and Go provided link. Will come in March * Published SD Boot Utils article * Leap 15.6 beta article ready for publication on Thursday at 7 p.m. We should do a little prequel for BugDay/LiveEvent (like a little tweet or similar today). To increase attendance of the event. * GSoC * Sent report to Project Manager * Started seperate workspace on slack for mentees and mentors - https://join.slack.com/t/opensuse-group/shared_invite/zt-2dwsqm6nb-iNJifnVbQ... * Community Summit * 8 Registrations, 5 Submissions, 2 Hours (pre-announcement) * openSUSE Conference * 48 Registrations, 27 Submissions, 16 Hours (5 Open 4 Business Submissions) ** I won't be available next weeks Static * oSC24 dates June 27 to 29 reserved (Thursday - Saturday) * Open 4 Business June 26 between 2 - 6 p.m. at Franken Campus * AI topics (static) ## Dirk Not available ## Wolfgang (Package Hub), Scott Bahling lkocman: Not available Customer request for Re-addition of rsh to Leap 15.5 / 15.6 and related Package Hub modules for SLES 15 SP5/SP6. ## Maintenance team (Marcus or Maurizio (m4u)) Not avialable expired repodata warning for http://download.opensuse.org/update/leap/15.6/backports/ http://download.opensuse.org/update/leap/15.6/non-oss/ This was mentioned as part of https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1220993 Struggling with chromium update. Maintainers are not currently able to update it to the current version. No transition method for expired keys. Temporarily disabling the key in libcontainer policy (Marcus please correct me). The goal is to have the least disruptive method for it. Dominique: the new key seems to raise some issues - transition needs to be figured out. Marcus: I did check podman documentation and am looking if we can have temporarily two keys in parallel. Marcus: will we resign all the images on the registry or only new ones? Dominique: for rpm we usually accept both old and new key for about a half a year. lkocman: Leap Micro 6.X update channel setup will have to be done soon (within a few weeks). ## Adrian - OBS No update lkocman: we need to cleanup accepted / rejected requests in SUSE:SLE-15-SP6:GA in OBS. lkocman doesn't have permissions to do so in OBS. Workaround would be to re-add/reject suse-sle-reviewers review. Lubos will write to autobuild + add Marco to the first line. ## Simon (Leap Replacement/Linarite) Not available ## Bernhard Slowroll * https://openqa.opensuse.org/group_overview/120 has regular runs now * kernel-longterm 6.6.21 from Factory * kernel-default follows Factory * OBS has a Slowroll distribution target, so it is easy to add in devel projects * https://www.reddit.com/r/openSUSE_Slowroll/ gets some activity ## Open Floor
A significant issue was noted with running Firefox on aarch64 systems with <= 4GB of memory, while Chromium works fine with 2GB. This conflicts with GNOME's minimal requirement of 3GB of RAM https://boxingrandom.com The known issues page for Leap 15.6 Beta provides more details. Plasma 5.27.1 Update: Ongoing updates and discussions are happening, as detailed on the openSUSE features issue page.
