Due to recent....events....I am unable to perform the required research for this report. 15:07:43 <kparal> so adamw volunteered to do the council report, but the last action item says danofsatx would do it, so I'm a bit confused 15:07:57 <kparal> adamw already wrote up some points, quite a lot of them, into the test list 15:08:00 <tflink> when is it? 15:08:05 <danofsatx> June 8th 15:08:06 <kparal> Jun 8 15:08:08 <tflink> when is the report due? 15:08:13 <danofsatx> June 8th 15:08:18 <tflink> so we need to find someone else to do it :) 15:08:19 <kparal> it will be a teleconference over google hangouts, it seems 15:08:35 <tflink> I assume it'll be the same as the last 2 or so council meetings 15:09:08 <kparal> I was willing to step up for adam/danofsatx for an irc conference, I'm not that thrilled about a video conference, I don't enjoy appearing in public :) 15:09:25 <kparal> but lot of info should be already written up by adam 15:09:32 <roshi> hangouts is an odd choice to me... 15:09:43 <kparal> if somebody is willing to go there, I'll be happy to help the person finalize the notes 15:09:55 * tflink can do it if needed 15:10:36 * danofsatx votes for sgallagh - he did fine last week ;) 15:11:08 * satellit late listening 15:11:14 <roshi> does anybody *want* to do it, or is everyone pretty much "if needed?" 15:11:26 <kparal> I believe it's the latter :) 15:11:38 <sgallagh> danofsatx: Not volunteering, thanks 15:11:39 <tflink> i suspect that I'll have to get out the windows box for using hangouts, though :-/ 15:11:43 <roshi> so do I 15:11:52 <kparal> it should work on linux 15:11:53 <roshi> it works well enough in chrome 15:12:02 <roshi> haven't tried firefox with it 15:12:02 <kparal> there's a plugin for firefox, or plugin-less in chrome 15:12:05 * tflink doesn't have chrome on any of his machines 15:12:14 <danofsatx> I wanted to do it, but circumstances have drastically changed 15:12:16 <tflink> ah, didn't know it worked with firefox now 15:12:26 <roshi> chrome in a docker container manages to hold it's RAM gobbling in check 15:12:28 <tflink> danofsatx: no worries, stuff happens :) 15:13:27 <tflink> I've said that I'd do it - any other reluctant volunteer-ish people? 15:13:47 <tflink> it looks like I need to fill in some holes in adam's email anyways 15:14:33 <roshi> well, I was going to say I can do it if needed 15:14:47 <roshi> but I'm so far back in the queue now I didn't see a reason to :p 15:14:55 <kparal> we can draw matches or something :) 15:15:02 <tflink> roshi: I'm not going to fight you for it :-P 15:15:08 <roshi> nor I :) 15:15:23 <roshi> I have a face for radio - which is why I like IRC :p 15:15:32 <kparal> everybody loves meetings and bureaucracy, it seems 15:16:07 <kparal> I don't think that video is necessary, btw. mainly audio matters, I think 15:16:11 <roshi> tbh I think it's the video bit :p 15:16:14 <roshi> yeah 15:16:30 <tflink> i think the idea is to make the meetings more accessible to folks who don't like text-only 15:16:47 <kparal> and shorter, probably 15:17:29 * tflink proposes that kparal, roshi and tflink draw straws/fight over who's doing the presentation outside of the meeting 15:17:41 <roshi> works for me 15:17:51 <kparal> ok 15:17:56 <tflink> unless I missed another reluctant person 15:18:08 <kparal> quake tournament? 15:18:09 <roshi> hehe 15:18:18 * pingou put back the pop-corn to the kitchen 15:18:31 <roshi> well, onto the open floor then :) 15:18:35 <pingou> \ó/ 15:18:36 <roshi> #topic Open Floor 15:18:47 <roshi> anyone have something for open floor? 15:19:04 <kparal> just a heads up, fedup seems to be deprecated for F23, according to devel@ list 15:19:13 <tflink> other than the deathmatch over presenting to the council? 15:19:14 <kparal> might be of interested to people around here 15:19:15 * tflink ducks 15:19:39 <satellit> how do we get to f23 for testing? no fedup yet? 15:19:43 <tflink> i need to catch up on that thread, are there any concrete plans for fedup's replacement? 15:19:54 <kparal> tflink: systemd's offline updates 15:20:32 <kparal> wwoods was short in the description, but he claims it will be much simpler than the current solution 15:20:33 <tflink> at the very least, I'd like to see that transition work better from a testing POV than the preupgrade->fedup transition 15:20:34 <roshi> I hate offline updates 15:20:49 <tflink> but that wouldn't take much 15:21:05 <pingou> tflink: there is already a dnf plugin 15:21:28 <pingou> might be worth testing, but if it's also used in gnome-applications then that's another path to test 15:21:42 <tflink> then we're already in better shape - IIRC, fedup wasn't even functioning correctly until after F18 beta freeze 15:22:00 <kparal> and another interesting news, liveusb-creator gets a new facelift. I already commented on devel@ that it also needs to change the plumbing (dd mode by default, instead of cp mode) it they really want to fix the most problematic issues 15:22:06 <wwoods> and the fedup DNF plugin already works: https://github.com/wgwoods/dnf-plugin-fedup 15:23:21 <wwoods> the conversation with the DNF maintainers makes it sound like they'd prefer to implement the Offline Updates spec in DNF (and/or dnf-plugins-core) itself 15:23:22 <tflink> sounds like a good thing to start poking at :) 15:23:23 <kparal> wwoods: welcome. does that mean that we'll be able now to easily do something like distro-sync? 15:23:35 <wwoods> kparal: yes. already supported by fedup-dnf-plugin 15:24:15 <kparal> wwoods: great. and will it be performed by dnf, instead of core rpm, right? so that information like user-installed leaf packages will not be lost on upgrade 15:24:20 <wwoods> kparal: correct 15:24:24 <kparal> awesome news 15:24:28 <kparal> what's the catch? 15:24:36 <pingou> kparal: it works ;-) 15:24:40 <roshi> there's always a catch... 15:25:20 <wwoods> the catch? nothing really important - we're throwing out the upgrade.img 15:26:00 <kparal> that seems like another benefit. it made testing more difficult 15:26:00 <wwoods> so things that were theoretically possible to do during the upgrade (like, say, filesystem migrations) aren't possible *before* the upgrade 15:26:08 <wwoods> but we never did them that way 15:26:50 <wwoods> the only thing we did do like that was /usrmove, and that got handled by a dracut scriptlet in the post-upgrade system 15:27:23 <kparal> ok, sounds great, then 15:27:36 <tflink> agreed, sound good to me 15:27:37 <wwoods> so yeah, we've learned a bunch of lessons about how to do upgrade - fedup was designed to work like anaconda used to, and it turns out we inherited a lot of its problems 15:27:58 <wwoods> so fedup2 (or whatever you want to call it) throws away the unnecessary complexity 15:28:20 <tflink> do we want to get someone started on looking at the upgrade testcases? 15:28:42 <tflink> rather, is someone interested in starting to look at them? 15:29:04 * danofsatx isn't taking on any action items at this time 15:29:30 <pingou> wwoods: btw, is the dnf plugin packaged already? 15:29:34 * tflink figures that the earlier we look at it, the earlier we find any potential problems and we aren't dealing with last-minute crap during F23 beta 15:29:56 <wwoods> pingou: no, because I'm not certain that plugin will be the final form 15:30:10 <wwoods> it might instead be in upstream dnf-plugins-core, or upstream DNF itself 15:30:10 <roshi> +1 for testing early 15:30:13 <pingou> wwoods: could be merged into dnf-* later with a Provides: 15:30:50 <wwoods> but it will definitely work the same way 15:33:29 <wwoods> pingou: nah. "git clone ... ; sudo make install ; sudo systemctl enable fedup-system-upgrade.service" is fine for a pre-alpha prototype 15:34:17 <pingou> wwoods: might do that :) 15:34:25 <roshi> #info fedup will be depreciated in F23 15:34:34 <wwoods> pingou: also the plymouth display stuff doesn't work without patching DNF, so I'm not going to package something that can't work correctly 15:34:47 <roshi> #info Upgrades will be handled by a plugin in DNF 15:34:51 <roshi> ^^ that sound right? 15:34:53 <pingou> wwoods: good point 15:35:13 <wwoods> roshi: sure, DNF plugin or extension 15:35:39 <roshi> #undo 15:35:39 <zodbot> Removing item from minutes: INFO by roshi at 15:34:47 : Upgrades will be handled by a plugin in DNF 15:35:46 <roshi> #info Upgrades will be handled by a plugin in DNF or an extension 15:36:22 <wwoods> really it's more like: DNF is probably going to get support for handling Offline Updates, and the new fedup will use that to do system upgrades 15:36:56 <roshi> well, we can test it when there's something ready for us to test 15:37:00 <wwoods> indeed 15:37:07 <roshi> :) 15:37:22 <roshi> thanks for the info wwoods 15:37:35 <wwoods> sure! just ask if you have other questions 15:38:00 <roshi> anyone have anything else on F23 upgrades or for Open Floor? 15:38:06 <roshi> or should I set the fuse? 15:38:36 <kparal> nothing else here 15:39:03 * roshi sets the fuse 15:39:04 <roshi> 3... 15:41:55 <roshi> 2... 15:42:00 <roshi> 1... 15:42:04 <roshi> thanks for coming folks! 15:42:07 <roshi> #endmeeting
