1. OS
Distro (Mark)
- Debian
Build Development status
- Pulp
status
--> moving to APTLY (https://www.aptly.info/ )
- Adding
source support to pulp_deb is taking longer than
expected
- so
pivot to using Aptly
- both
have REST API, and python3
client libraries
- discussions
around hosting Pupl
on CENGN, can be put on
hold due to this change
- Revisit
Pulp in the coming months as it offers advantages
over Aptly that may still prove to be useful to have
- 5.10
kernel
- Underway
for
CentOS base
- packaging
is still RPM, it is work in progress for Debian
transition
- Debian
5.10 will not be small like CentOS kernel. Will
include patch history
- The
team is continuing work
on
minikue, stx config, etc.. preparing for patch
submission and
review
- OS-Tree,
also preparing for submitting the spec. Working on
writing the spec
starting this week.
- Goal
for end of July, internal to WR, complete builds, and
producing ISO repo's.
- will
have access to the build config, but will likely not
be documented
- will
have tooling in place to allow access to config repo
to do builds and produce diff tarballs
- Q.
What is Aptly?
- https://www.aptly.info
- allow
one to create snapshot, distro, and releases
- a
tool to programmatically
setup debian repo, and holds the debian
artifacts, which becomes the input into OBS and LAT
to generate
pacakages and
images
respectively
- Python
Status
- not
many updates
- rebase
is finished, aligned CentOS8 branch with master
branch.
- Will
get back to Python 3.
2.
Multi-OS
