Hi,
While technically speaking a ConfigManagement SIG was approved a long time ago (https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup/ConfigManagementSIG) it seems that nothing was built at all, and that initial people probably lost interest in that idea (?)
The interesting part is that other SIGs that were relying on such config management tools (like puppet or ansible) built it themselves in their own tags : - puppet : https://cbs.centos.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=390 - ansible : https://cbs.centos.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=1947
I was myself just the "sponsor" for other community people to join and take care of the pkgs they were interested into, but suddenly I was myself busy rebuilding such tools, and I'd even have a new one as a proposal : ARA
ARA (Ansible Run Analysis) is a tool written under the openstack umbrella, and written/maintained by dmsimard (Cloud SIG member) For people not aware of it, it's a callback plugin for ansible that let you store (and so browse) your ansible logs through webui (and it stores those reports into a DB)
I initially thought about building that in the infrastructure7-el7 target, but maybe some other people would be interested into using those as pkgs directly in a repo on mirror.centos.org
Initially the author wanted to have it in Epel7, but due to two pkgs version that are in [base] (and so that will not be overwritten by Epel), that doesn't seem possible. So my proposal would be to rebuild what's needed through configmgmt SIG , including the two packages (pytest and python-jinja2)
For people interested in the ARA in Epel7 story, here is the pkg review : https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1426193
Ideas, opinions ?
