Making the redhat selinux-policy repository publicly available
by Daan De Meyer 11 Jul '23

11 Jul '23

Hi, It seems that the selinux-policy rpm is built from git@gitlab.cee.redhat.com:SELinux/selinux-policy.git which seems to be a redhat internal repository. More specifically, if I try to checkout the commit listed in the selinux-policy spec (https://gitlab.com/redhat/centos-stream/rpms/selinux-policy/-/blob/c9s/seli…) in the fedora-selinux repository cloned from github, I get an error saying that the commit does not exist. It would be great if the repository containing this commit was publicly available and open for external contributors just like all the other packages in CentOS Stream. Is it possible to make this happen? Cheers, Daan De Meyer

2023-07-12 - CentOS Public Board Meeting
by Thomas Oulevey 10 Jul '23

10 Jul '23

Hi Everyone, Our next board meeting will take place at 20:00 UTC on Wednesday: `date -d "2023-07-12 20:00 UTC"` If you would like to attend please send me an email to alphacc(a)centosproject.org ( please do not reply to @centos-devel or use another email address) and you will receive a link to a Zoom meeting room with a passcode, 1 hour before the meeting takes place. The agenda can be checked at (work in progress) : https://hackmd.io/@centosboard/HyP-UuFt2 As a reminder we will enforce few rules : * Wait to be recognized by the Chair before speaking * Respect the Chair when told your time to speak is over - this will allow us to remain on agenda, and complete the meetings in the allotted time * In the event that there are Board-confidential topics, these will be put at the end of the meeting, in Executive Session, and guests will be asked to leave. We hope to minimize these items, but they do sometimes happen. The most common scenarios in which this may happen are personnel issues, or information that Red Hat wishes to share with the Board, but is not yet public. * Muting of participants, or, in extreme situations, ejection from the meeting, is at the sole discretion of the Chair. * Meetings will be recorded, and published to YouTube (possibly with edits/redaction, as approved by the Directors). Thus, by joining the meeting you consent to have your presence at the meeting, and anything you say during the meeting, made public. I hope some of you can join. Sorry for the late announcement. thanks, -- Thomas 'alphacc' Oulevey CentOS Board of Directors Secretary alphacc(a)centosproject.org

Help with reproducing tests locally
by Carlos Rodriguez-Fernandez 08 Jul '23

08 Jul '23

Hi All, I've been trying to reproduce the centos tests locally. Thank to Aleksandra and arrfab for the help on IRC to understand the whole process conceptually. I successfully ran https://github.com/CentOS/sig-core-t_functional on a clean centos stream 9 vm. The tests passed. I'm running into issues trying to run individual playbooks against a clean centos stream 9 vm from the zuul-jobs and jobs repositories from here: https://gitlab.com/redhat/centos-stream/ci-cd/zuul The errors I find are mainly related to dependencies, e.g., missing users, or packages, which makes me think there are steps I need to do before. Is there any documentation for contributors about the zuul CI tests, to be able to test individual playbooks locally? If there is none, I could contribute with some in a Readme.md, but I would still need some basic guidance to get at least some of them working locally. Any help is appreciated. Regards, Carlos.

[ISA SIG] Meeting notes 2023-07-07
by Florian Weimer 07 Jul '23

07 Jul '23

We met for the first time today. Florian briefly summarized the status of the CentOS 9 Stream rebuilds with x86-64-v2 and x86-64-v3. For details, please see: [CentOS-devel] ISA SIG rebuild status <https://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-devel/2023-June/143007.html> Since then, Troy has added consumption documentation describing how to consume the builds: Convert CentOS Stream 9 to ISA <https://sigs.centos.org/isa/consuming/centosstream9/#convert-centos-stream-…> Currently, there are no plans to keep the package set up-to-date with regards to CentOS 9 Stream. Troy plans to create centos-release-isa package which, upon installation, creates the unusual repository configuration. This will be an explicit download, not part of CentOS Extras, out of concern that people might try to install it accidentally otherwise. Ali raised the matter of zlib-ng (see the previous mailing list thread). Florian thinks that zlib-ng in compat mode is something to explore. This work should happen in Fedora first, targeting Fedora 40. Florian to send email to relevant parties. Troy and Florian are going to explore creating two container images for each rebuild variant, so that people have a more familiar starting point for some quick experiments. We plan to reconvene on July 21st, at 16:00 UTC (date and time still tentative; it's the alternate slot for the bi-weekly Fedora ELN meeting). Please drop me a line if you want to be added to the meeting invitation. Update of the CentOS calendar is still pending: <https://github.com/CentOS/Calendar/pull/62> (We will likely keep using Google Meet instead of IRC, though.) Thanks, Florian

[Storage-SIG] cephadm package is old
by Luis Domingues 07 Jul '23

07 Jul '23

Hi. During an installation, I saw that almost all ceph packages for ceph pacific are in the last version, v16.2.13 except for cephadm. The last version is v16.2.7. Is any reason for that? Or is it just a mistake? Thanks Luis Domingues Proton AG

Build for main CentOS Stream repos with subpackages in a SIG repo
by Sandro Bonazzola 04 Jul '23

04 Jul '23

Hi, is it possible to have a build from https://kojihub.stream.centos.org/koji/ having subpackages that are not going to be shipped in main CentOS Stream repos being somehow filtered to ship those subpackages into a SIG repo? I'm asking specifically about qemu-kvm sub packages we'd like to have in CentOS AutoSD SIG but that are not going to be shipped in main CentOS Stream repos as not relevant/supported in RHEL (qemu-kvm-ui-dbus, BZ# *2207940* <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2207940>). I would like to avoid having to rebuild the same qemu-kvm build within the SIG each time a new release lands in CentOS Stream just to get a subpackage. Is this possible? Thanks, -- Sandro Bonazzola MANAGER, SOFTWARE ENGINEERING - Red Hat In-Vehicle Operating System Red Hat EMEA <https://www.redhat.com/> sbonazzo(a)redhat.com <https://www.redhat.com/> *Red Hat respects your work life balance. Therefore there is no need to answer this email out of your office hours.*

t_functional tests :: github checks broken, and the fix.
by Carlos Rodriguez-Fernandez 03 Jul '23

03 Jul '23

Hi Fabian Arrotin, I submitted a PR with a set of tests for libbpf-tools: https://github.com/CentOS/sig-core-t_functional/pull/88 The PR is failing because the python package duffy does not work with pydantic >= 2.0. I provided a commit in my PR that fixes that issue by pinpointing the version to the latest pydantic 1.x version (1.10.10 from 2023-06-30). That commit may need to be cherry picked first to then see if my PR passes the checks. Thank you, Carlos.
