As migrations Leap -> SLE and Leap -> Jump are one of hottest topics. Issues with Jump ftp-tree builds. openqa received new build 5 minutes ago https://openqa.opensuse.org/group_overview/75 I did add jump sections to rsyncd-internal (not sure if they're in use) Schedule draft: https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Roadmap meeting with Pm later this week Submit request mirroring https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Jump:OBS:SRMirroring Working on policy documents for https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Jump namely https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Jump/Policy/ChangeValidation and https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Suse_sle_review_team https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Jump/Policy/SubmitRequests (a lot of questions on this topic) Do we need any further review? Please ping me not more than 10 minutes after the meeting otherwise I'll send it as Jump update to factory@and project@. ## openSUSE Tumbleweed * The DNS issues on openQA have mostly been resolved (new DNS in the SUSE/DMZ is referenced) - except the new DNS server filters out dnssec records which causes some few issues in tests. We still have ariel configured to use Google's DNS Servers for now * build fail notification mails are live again. The underlying OBS issue has been fixed * Systemd 246 is now in TW. 'security issue' detected: yast user creates users now with DES encrypted passwords (somehow parses systemd output wrongly and this causes it to fallback to DES) - https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1176714 ## ddemaio * openSUSE + LibreOffice Conference * Speaker registration will be available in two weeks * Still waiting on confirmation of keynotes ## Dirk Not present We need to hear updates on Tier1 policy. ## Guillaume - Arm Tumbleweed: * Still the GNOME X11 bug with virtio (also affects x86): https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1168992 Jump: is in better shapes, but still few issues to address: * VLC is still missing on aarch64 and ppc64le , but an update is on the way to Leap:15.2:Update - https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1175972 * openSUSE vs SUSE signing keys for Secureboot is now fixed: https://progress.opensuse.org/issues/69832 WSL: 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. 32bit ARMv7: Lubos to talk to PM. Meanwhile Guillaume will drive the planning effort. ## Gerald || Marina No good or bad news. Marina was looking at Community feature requests status. If there are other features pending ECO approval, feel free to reach out to me. We will have jira partner setup for openSUSE done this week. Confirmed with JIRA team. Neal Gompa will be the first person who can file direct "partner" feature requests against SLE in jira.suse.com. Next people will follow. ## Max * bootloader_uefi test fail has been fixed after switch to booting with SLE firmware https://progress.opensuse.org/issues/69832 * Updated the medium name to 15.2.1 everywhere to match the ftp tree version number lkocman: Perfect thank you! Did Adrian already changed the sync? depends which publish script we are using currently, if it is publish_distro then it needs a update for sure, if there is another one, then I've no idea. * Finally a new build was there Build82.6, will force publish it to see how did publishing work * Will debugging fails to add official repository during installation once new content be published * I'll be on holiday next week Lubos: PM-2094 - Allow vendor change from openSUSE -> SUSE, SUSE -> openSUSE on the Leap installation media. Still pending A new feature request aginst OBS team to have ftp-tree jump builds done under 4 hours, so we can do multiple builds a day (OBS-75). It takes currently 1.7 TB of cache for downloads. Max: if the ftp-tree build takes more than 4 hours the download already failed. :ToTest publishing happens it was just triggered manually by Adrian. We do publish from :ToTest to staging. Publish ftp-prod is blocked on admin@opensuse.org request. Lubos and Max to check on this topic. There is a ticket Adrian re-published Jump manually due to work regarding release- compare/obsgendiff ## Michel enable microOS openQA tests for TW ppc64le on o3, * need container images to registry as per https://progress.opensuse.org/issues/71527 * also looking on serial_terminal problem with https://progress.opensuse.org/issues/71488 Dominique: I will have a look at the TTM change ## Richard (Kubic/TW MicroOS) Various k8s releases, including kubernetes 1.19.2 certification pending Working on container tests Experimenting with KIND (Kubernetes In Docker) , replacing the Docker/Ubuntu Images with CRI-O/Kubic ones. ## Tom Not present ## Wolfgang (Package Hub and s390x) Interested in s390x rel-eng job. Dominique: Any update on the infra issue for s390x? https://progress.opensuse.org/issues/69328 ## Ludwig Not present Leap 15.2 MicroOS is temporarily paused. ## Adrian - Jump Not present Mirror * First version of request cloneing plugin is ready, needs testing => lacks feedback to outside on internal decision atm * Fixed issue of lacking request redirection from SUSE:SLE-15*:GA to :Update via delegation * Keep working on release-compare Lubos to reach out to SLE Release Management and Maintenance team to what information can be synced from IBS to OBS. E.g. only messages with @opensuse prefix. ## Overview of Commmunity SLE Feature Requests (See details in https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Leap/SLEFeatureRequests ) (This section will be newly part of ReleaseEngineering meeting minutes) * Hardware enablement printing/scanners: Update sane to 1.0.29 (PM- 2118) - Pending TPM eval (ECO approved) - Aiming for maintenance update for SLE-15-SP2:Update. Pending ECO Approvals. * DNF for SLE / Leap Next (PM-2044) - Status is NEW - List of benefits was put together by Neal Gompa and Daniel Mach - Request was raised to PM attention - A lot of discussion over the entire July (this topic got really good visibility). A TODO list from mls that is making it really difficult No offering of solutions if there are dependency problems (dnf just exits) No concept of package vendors No support for products Completely different handling of maintenance updates, i.e. no support of patches No support for patterns No support for translations No support for modalias() supplements to install needed kernel modules No support for language supplements metalink support in librepo only for a complete repository, i.e not file based. This does not fit our download redirector No support for services No support for product licenses No support for L3 tags Different lock handling Does not understand a repo consisting of multiple media I don't see how YaST can work with libdnf * Update Remmina to 1.4.8 (PM-2181) - Waiting for PM evaluation * Add python 3.8 support (PM-1482) - New awaiting PM evaluation - Originally requested for Blender but, now it seems like people generally ask for 3.8 to be available. - Notified PM that this topic is getting attention - Packaging team is working on py38 39 etc via koinstall - python38 request for Factory https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/openSUSE:Factory:Staging:B * Please update glibc to 2.29 or newer (PM-2030) - Under Evaluation - Originally reported as https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1173761 - Deferred to the next release, can't be done as a maintenance update. - Currently under evaluation for SLE 15 SP3. PM is in favor of the request. * Update Apparmor to 2.13.4 (PM-1983) - In Progress, TPM Evaluation is done Defered to SP3 Hi Lubos, apparmor in SLE15 SP2 is already at 2.13.4. However, it is not at what Christian wants it to be. Christian has put a big patch called changes-since-2.13.4.diff to upgrade it. This was agreed to be released in SP3 * add authselect for managing auth stack configuration (PM-1881) - Pending PM Evaluation - Aiming for 15 SP3 - PM generally likes the idea, we're looking for a feedback from Security team. Security team wants to hear feedback from Architect as there seems to be an overlap with pam-config. - Thorsten (Architect) mentioned that we'll have to find resources for pam-config modification as he doesn't have time for it. Any help from community side would be appreciated! * Update libcdio required by python-pycdio 2.1.0 and whipper (PM-1801) - Approved - Will be implemented in SP3:GA
