Hi,
Long awaited feature request is now implemented on https://cbs.centos.org : you can now start requesting 9s tags to build against/for CentOS Stream 9 !
I already created some tags/targets for SIGs that already requested it some time ago through our dedicated infra tracker (reminder: https://pagure.io/centos-infra/issues)
Worth knowing that the following repositories are enabled by default for all newly created 9s tags:
- BaseOS
- AppStream
- CRB
What's possible to add ? I know that for 8/8s some SIGs (like Cloud SIG for openstack) rely on other repositories, like HighAvailability , or others. Feel free to ask such repositories to be added to your build tags.
It's also possible to build against CentOS Stream 9 buildroots if the pushed repositories don't include all -devel / runtime packages that you need at buildtime. For that, consider also asking for it if/when needed.
Important ! Due to the way Stream 9 will be delivered (more news on that later, probably through Brian and/or Carl), I have locked all -release tags for 9s.
What does that mean ? That you can build pkgs, and also tag to -testing (that will go out as usual to buildlogs.centos.org) but not to -release (even if tag is created already).
Once we'll have figured out how to properly sign+push SIG content out, we'll announce the plan and also unlock the -release SIG tags
Stay tuned for more information about that soon.
Kind Regards,
It wasn't that long before some SIGs started to test building on cbs.centos.org (I like the Momentum !) .. and so that first issue was found : CentOS Stream 9 ppc64le requires IBM Power 9, which we don't have for builders for cbs.centos.org .. :
Error in <unknown> scriptlet in rpm package glibc-common Fatal glibc error: CPU lacks ISA 3.00 support (POWER9 or later required) warning: %transfiletriggerin(glib2-2.68.4-1.el9.ppc64le) scriptlet failed, exit status 127
So that means that for now, we have to decide on what to do : SIGs can request to build only for x86_64/aarch64 and let ppc64le aside and we can try to see if there is a way to find an IBM Power 9 machine that we can use for SIGs/cbs
