<p><span>Our builds are currently broken on the download mirror
step. Yumdownloader is failing to download the kernel headers
specified in our lst files. The files are present in our rpm
repos, checksums verified, and are properly indexed in the repo
data. The yum tool set just refuses to download it for us. </span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span>So what has changed?</span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span>A new kernel from centos 8 was added. This required the
additions of new centos 8 repos. The centos 8 repos are now
shipping a newer kernel than the one we are trying to adopt. The
latest kernel has an ‘obsoletes’ vs the kernel we are trying to
adopt. </span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span>It’s our theory that the presence of a newer package that
obsoletes the package we wish to download is the trigger for the
download refusal.</span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span>It looks like obsoletes usage will be the norm in centos 8,
at least in the kernel area.</span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span>There does not appear to be any way to get yumdownloader to
download an obsoletes package. </span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span>We will be looking into ways to find and download packages
without yum’s help, but that will take some time.</span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span>Upversioning the the latest centos 8 kernel might be a
temporary fix, but would break as soon as centos issues another
kernel update.</span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span>In the mean time, I think we need to temporarily back out
the kernel feature so that we can build again.</span><br>

<p class="MsoNormal">Scott has worked through the weekend to try
and address the CENGN build failures due to the kernel 4.18
commits. Unfortunately a solution is not in sight. As such I
am asking Austin and the team priming the kernel v4.18 commits
to revert these commits until they can work out a solution.
Please revert these commits on Monday:

https://review.opendev.org/#/q/topic:4.18_kernel+(status:open+OR+status:merged)</a><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Scott will provide a summary of the issues
being seen. Also he’ll provide suggestions on how the kernel
team can test and investigate the issues on the feature
branch.
