I had the understanding that those gates are responsible to sync between RHEL/CENTOS build pipelines? Especially for the major version 9 this should be the state or do I misunderstand the workflow? -- LeonSince I don't exactly know what you are picturing as a workflow, I'll step through an average package update on RHEL9.
1 - maintainer (or others) create a merge request into CentOS Stream 9 gitlab area. 2 - the merge request is gated and tested before being merged. 3 - When that merge request gets merged in the Stream 9 gitlab area, it is also synced over to the internal Brew dist-git area. 4 - The maintainer starts the build in CentOS Stream 9. 5 - When that happens, a build starts on the internal Brew systems. 6 - When both builds finish, they are both gated. The testing only happens internally on the Brew build. 7 - When the internal testing passes successfully, then both RHEL and CS builds are moved on. 8 - Internally, an errata is made, or an errata is updated with the new build, and both packages move to -pending. 9 - Composes are created out of the -pending packages.
Early on there was talk about putting gating between CS and RHEL, but that would make the build repo's different, and eventually the CentOS Stream and RHEL builds would diverge.
I've simplified the steps some, and it's possible I didn't explain everything correctly. So if you need me (or others) to explain or expand on some of the steps, let me know.
Thanks for depicting the steps. Very much appreciated! I think point 7 is what I meant with synchronization (both ... moved on). The missed thing in my big picture is a explanation why version 91.13.0 is not (at least) in the stream composes. In particular its not about this package but more about the understanding ...
So, I was about to point you to https://composes.stream.centos.org/development/latest-CentOS-Stream/compose/ which is a daily compose of everything with the -gate tag. But, I see that the new firefox isn't there ... soo ... Something is happening differently with this firefox build. I'll do some more digging.
