Meeting summary

  1. roll call (dustymabe, 16:31:05)
  2. Action items from last meeting (dustymabe, 16:35:39)
  3. Differing behavior for aarch64 vs x86_64 disk images (dustymabe, 16:36:09)
    1. https://github.com/coreos/fedora-coreos-tracker/issues/855 (dustymabe, 16:36:15)

  4. NetworkManager: consider defaulting to EUI-64 for IPv6 SLAAC (at least on OpenStack) (dustymabe, 16:38:53)
    1. https://github.com/coreos/fedora-coreos-tracker/issues/907 (dustymabe, 16:38:57)
    2. AGREED: We will work with the NetworkManager team to get in place a configuration setting for a default value for ipv6.addr-gen-mode and apply that to all of FCOS when it's ready. (dustymabe, 16:56:15)
    3. AGREED: In the shorter term we may try to find some other way to set it without requiring the NetworkManager feature to be implemented. (dustymabe, 16:56:17)
    4. AGREED: We'll also reach out to FESCO and try to convince the rest of Fedora that `stable-privacy` makes most sense in a workstation/laptop setting and we should apply eui64 as the default for all server like variants. (dustymabe, 16:56:19)

  5. tracker: Fedora 35 changes considerations (dustymabe, 16:57:25)
    1. https://github.com/coreos/fedora-coreos-tracker/issues/856 (dustymabe, 16:57:29)
    2. we think we can skip GNU Toolchain update (dustymabe, 17:02:33)
    3. Golang 1.17: we don't anticipate any issues skipping (dustymabe, 17:04:26)
    4. IBus 1.5.25: we don't anticipate any issues skipping (dustymabe, 17:04:28)
    5. LLVM 13: we don't anticipate any issues skipping (dustymabe, 17:04:30)
    6. Memory Constraints macros for RPM: we don't anticipate any issues skipping (dustymabe, 17:06:26)
    7. Python Packaging Guidelines overhaul: we don't anticipate any issues skipping (dustymabe, 17:06:30)
    8. ACTION: dustymabe will open a ticket and look for volunteers to investigate "Third-party Software Mechanism" (dustymabe, 17:09:26)
    9. ACTION: dustymabe will open a ticket and look for volunteers to investigate "Remove authselect-compat package" (dustymabe, 17:10:47)
    10. Use yescrypt as default hashing method for shadow passwords: we don't anticipate any issues skipping (dustymabe, 17:14:51)

  6. Differing behavior for aarch64 vs x86_64 disk images (dustymabe, 17:16:54)
    1. https://github.com/coreos/fedora-coreos-tracker/issues/855 (dustymabe, 17:16:58)
    2. https://github.com/coreos/fedora-coreos-tracker/issues/855#issuecomment-896387343 (bgilbert, 17:31:09)
    3. AGREED: we will ship empty partitions to help gain symmetry between the x86_64 aarch64 and ppc64le disk images in order to workaround/fix other bugs and help mitigate user confusion. The partition sizes won't necessarily be the same on all arches. (dustymabe, 17:31:32)

  7. open floor (dustymabe, 17:33:25)
    1. ACTION: bgilbert to add empty partitions, update Butane, re-enable tests (bgilbert, 17:33:41)
