21:07:00 <tdawson> I know that bstinson probrubly can't make it,  but I'll wait a  minute or two for carlwgeorge
21:09:22 <tdawson> I hope carlwgeorge can make it.  His is onw of the few things we need to vote on.  But I guess we know he has a +1 vote.

21:10:16 <tdawson> #info https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1777660
21:10:17 <tdawson> email was sent to devel list, and discussion on email was had.
21:10:38 <tdawson> I didn't see any negatives toward the proposed update.
21:11:01 <pgreco> neither did I
21:11:05 <tdawson> Did we need to discuss anything before we vote on this?
21:12:16 <tdawson> Then how about we vote while carlwgeorge's phone is still connected.
21:12:33 <nirik> +uno
21:12:37 <tdawson> I give it a +1
21:12:56 <carlwgeorge> +1 from me of course
21:14:17 <tdawson> #info Voting was unanimous.  +3 -0   Proposal passed.
21:14:46 <nirik> the crowd goes wild...
21:15:02 <pgreco> +1
21:15:22 <tdawson> carlwgeorge: Go forth an update
21:15:52 <tdawson> That's all the old business ...
21:16:00 <tdawson> #info EPEL-6 is End of Life in 2020-11. It will be moved to archives in 2020-12
21:16:02 <tdawson> #info THIS IS NOT A DRILL.
21:16:03 <tdawson> #topic EPEL-7
21:16:25 <carlwgeorge> current view https://photos.app.goo.gl/ryaBqhdLVKEiWK8GA
21:16:39 <carlwgeorge> I'll move forward with the update when I get home
21:17:04 <tdawson> Looks like the croud ... sounds like crickets.
21:17:37 <tdawson> I haven't heard any issues for EPEL7 ... does anyone else have anything before I move on to EPEL8?
21:18:04 <smooge> nope move on mcduff
21:18:16 <tdawson> #topic EPEL-8
21:18:36 <tdawson> The only things for EPEL 8 that I've heard is dealing with my KDE builds ... and that doesn't need to be here.
21:19:11 <nirik> carlwgeorge is fixing python-psutils...
21:19:18 <nirik> many thanks for that. ;)
21:19:58 <carlwgeorge> yup, python2-psutil is in EPEL 8 testing
21:20:09 <tdawson> Cool.
21:20:42 <tdawson> I would look it up in bodhi so we could give it some karma ... but bodhi and I haven't been on good terms today.
21:21:54 <tdawson> Were there any other packages that need help?
21:22:00 <tdawson> Or anything else EPEL8 related?
21:22:11 * nirik has nothing off hand
21:22:27 <tdawson> #topic General Issues / Open Floor
21:22:55 <jsmith> One quick question...
21:23:08 <jsmith> Regarding EPEL and the PowerTools repo.
21:23:31 <jsmith> Am I correct in understanding that the PowerTools repo is a dependency of EPEL?
21:23:43 <tdawson> I do have one question for nirik and/or smooge.  Is there a web page that says proposed dates for the various parts of the datacenter move?
21:23:54 <smooge> jsmith, yes it is required
21:23:59 <tdawson> jsmith: yep
21:24:05 <smooge> too many things are not included in RHEL Base/Appstream
21:24:24 <jsmith> If I install the epel-release RPM, does that enable the PowerTools stuff as well?
21:24:26 <smooge> so it is required for both building and running
21:24:32 <jsmith> Or do I still have to manually enable it.
21:24:39 <tdawson> I sorta wish there was a way we could have a package be a dependency of a repo, but I'm not sure that's possible.
21:24:40 <smooge> no that is in a different file and requires manual enable
21:24:47 <jsmith> ACK
21:24:50 <jsmith> Thanks!
21:25:01 * jsmith is trying to get back to maintaining more packages for EPEL
21:25:18 <smooge> trying to do it in the rpm transfer has the same problems as trying to look up packages while inside the rpm
21:25:38 <smooge> it can be done... most of the time.. if the gods smile upon you
21:25:56 <tdawson> CentOS:  dnf config-manager --enable PowerTools
21:26:08 <tdawson> RHEL8: subscription-manager repos --enable codeready-builder-for-rhel-8-x86_64-rpms
21:27:04 <smooge> tdawson, I think there is but I have been up to my neck with other fires I may have dropped that
21:27:37 <tdawson> smooge: It's ok.  I just sometimes loose track of the emails, so I was hoping there was a page I could bookmark.
21:27:56 <smooge> at this point we are past proposed dates to ones which are set in stone barring nuclear war
21:28:24 <nirik> I am working on one for the move week... in my spare time. :)
21:28:37 <nirik> happy to publish that one once it's better.
21:29:16 <pgreco> tdawson, maybe Stream-PowerTools too
21:29:21 <smooge> sounds like a plan...
21:29:26 <pgreco> if streeam is being used
21:29:37 <tdawson> I wouldn't mind it, but I also don't want to add any more work on ya'll
21:30:04 <tdawson> pgreco: You're correct, I need to put that in my notes.
21:30:22 <tdawson> Anything else?
21:30:23 <smooge> at the moment the plan is everything in PHX2 is turned off on June 12th 2002
21:30:38 <smooge> and yes.. I am looking for a police box
21:30:56 <tdawson> *laughs*
21:31:04 <tdawson> You beat me to it.
21:31:26 <smooge> that's it from me
21:32:20 <tdawson> Thanks to everyone for coming this week.
21:32:36 <pgreco> thanks tdawson!
21:32:41 <tdawson> We'll talk to you all next week ... or sooner.
