Hi, is this true for packages like "Uyuni Server", too? After upgrading from 2022.06 to 2022.08 "zypper up" shows: Loading repository data... Reading installed packages... The following 4 package updates will NOT be installed: Uyuni-Server-release cobbler netty supportutils-plugin-salt The following product update will NOT be installed: "Uyuni Server" Nothing to do. zypper lr says: Repository priorities are without effect.

Hi all, Never change the vendor for packages, unless we ask for it at the release notes. Doing it can render Uyuni unusable. There are some packages we require strictly from our repositories.

Just chipping in.

I don't have the original mgr-create-bootstrap-repo error, but during the upgrade from 2022.06 to 08, I also have some files that weren't upgraded.

=== The following 3 package updates will NOT be installed: cobbler netty supportutils-plugin-salt Nothing to do. ===

Attempting to update them manually gives me options, but I'm unsure what to do. Uyuni itself seems to be operating normally since the upgrade.

Well, two packages aren't updated because there appears to be duplicate packages from different repos for netty and cobbler.

# zypper update Loading repository data... Reading installed packages...

The following 2 package updates will NOT be installed: cobbler netty Nothing to do.

I've been assuming that Uyuni vendor packages are the correct ones. If I try use the zipper install command above then it indicates a whole bunch of Uyuni package dependencies would get removed, so I'm fairly sure the one currently installed is the right one.

Otherwise, the server appears up-to-date, has been rebooted, and we get the error. That said the reprepro does seem different than the version you indicated.

Did you fully upgrade the server?

What's the changelog of the reprepro package?

IIRC we had to fix this package so it could handle the new zstd compresed control file, and the fix is part of 2022.08:

https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/systemsmanagement:/Uyuni:/S table/ images/repo/Uyuni-Server-POOL-x86_64-Media1/x86_64/reprepro-5.3.0-2.8. uyuni2 .x86_64.rpm

$ rpm -q --changelog reprepro-5.3.0-2.8.uyuni2.x86_64.rpm|more * mié jun 29 2022 Julio González Gil <jgonzalez@suse.com> - Bump up the maxsize on a fixed-size C buffer to avoid breaking on some autogenerated rust packages * 0001-Bump-up-the-maxsize-on-a-fixed-size-C-buffer-to-avoi.patch - Flush stdout and stderr before execv of an end hook * 0002-Flush-stdout-stderr-before-calling-endhook.patch - Add support for Zstd compressed debs * 0003-Add-Zstd-support.patch

If you don't have this changelog entry, and if you already updated your server, maybe be the mirror you used still didn't have the reprepro version? El jueves, 11 de agosto de 2022 11:28:54 (CEST) Paul-Andre Panon via Uyuni Users escribió:

That's excellent! I was worried we might have to wait longer for Ubuntu 22.04 support after the lack of a 2022.07 release. Thank you.

That said, when I tried to create an Ubuntu 22.04 bootstrap repo, I got the following error message:

# mgr-create-bootstrap-repo --create ubuntu-22.04-amd64-uyuni

Creating bootstrap repo for ubuntu-22.04-amd64-uyuni copy 'venv-salt-minion-3004-4.6.uyuni.amd64-deb' Could not find a suitable control.tar file within '/srv/www/htdocs/pub/repositories/ubuntu/22/4/bootstrap.tmp/debs/ven v- salt- minion-3004-4.6.uyuni.amd64-deb.deb'! There have been errors! Error creating bootstrap repo.

Could it be that that function isn't benefiting from the updates to support the new compression algorithm used for Ubuntu 22.04 packages?

Cheers,

Paul-Andre

VERY IMPORTANT: 2022.08 requires special procedures if you are not already using Uyuni 2022.06! The configuration files for the proxy on containers also needs to be updated. Make sure you read the release notes before updating!

We are happy to announce the availability of Uyuni 2022.08. Most openSUSE mirrors should already have 2022.08, but if you do not see it yet, wait a few hours until your local openSUSE mirror is synced.

At https://www.uyuni-project.org/pages/stable-version.html you will find all the resources you need to start working with Uyuni 2022.08, including the release notes, documentation, requirements and setup instructions.

This is the list of highlights for this release:

- Ubuntu 22.04 as client - GPG key handling in Uyuni - Disabling locally defined repositories - Technology Preview: Helm chart to deploy containerized Uyuni Proxy

and Retail Branch Server

Remember that Uyuni will follow a rolling release planning, so the next version will contain bugfixes for this one and any new features. There will be no maintenance of 2022.08

As always, we hope you will enjoy Uyuni 2022.08 and we invite everyone of you to send us your feedback [1] and of course your patches, if you can contribute.

Happy hacking!
