This makes it harder to compare versions between Fedora and RHEL. I know it is not a 1:1 mapping anyway, but it is useful to see branching points etc. Differing Epoch will be confusing later down the road, I think. It's not like it's in the way?

OBS Fedora
Hello all, Any chance Fedora moves from Koji to OBS? Why should they? OBS has a web interface so one can easily fix packages even from an internet cafe/work/windows pc. Projects can be developed separately and packages can be easily branched and submitted. openSUSE is entirely build by OBS. Third party are unstable packages maintainers, can develop them at one place for different distributions. e.g as we do with unity for Fedora -PACKAGE_dir *source.tar.gz *dummy.patch *%name-%distro.spec *%name-%distro2.spec *%name-.dsc What would stop Fedora from doing this switch?

Re: OBS Fedora
First Thanks for the link and the answer. The guy ported it ten days later and it seems to work perfect now: http://www.martin-juhl.dk/2012/04/cbs-ready/ Second the problem with koji is that I have no web interface. I am one of the maintainers of the experimental unity for Fedora and I do a few other packages at home:damianator on OBS. I do lot of the spec file editing, patching etc. using the web interface from windows, because I can't have Linux on this one (long story). Also for some people that want to manage their applications for multiple distributions is the *only* logical (administrative-able) option, correct me if you have something more encouraged by Fedora that has the same capabilities, I will be happy to use it.

I would love to have distributions share common infrastructure but realistically Fedora isn't really going to switch the entire build system away from Koji anytime soon. Buildsystem is obviously extremely crucial for a distribution and moving away from ones that Fedora has developed for years and have expertise to rely on to something new and potentially problematic isn't a easy sell. Blog links aren't enough. You will have to make it available in Fedora and EPEL to be even considered as a alternative. It is probably just easier to file a few feature requests (preferably with patches) for Koji.

( since that's a critical part of the whole Fedora workflow ), or is it too tied to the Factory model of opensuse ? - does it have adequate security for audit and signing of who did what. While I guess the answer is yes for audit, there is pretty specific requirement and setup for Fedora ) - does it still use a non standard backend ( last time I looked, it was something specific, and not a vcs, but there was plan to migrate to git ) Anyway, if you wish to do so, I think the first part would be to integrate it so it can be installed from EPEL, which would at least show it can be reused without trouble. There is some software that are hard to reuse ( launchpad, gitorious ) and that sysadmin would prefer not to take care of. > Second the problem with koji is that I have no web interface.

But how do you test your package if you do not have a linux system ? And what about trying to port client tool like fedpkg to windows instead ( that's just python after all ). > Also for some people that want to manage their applications for > multiple distributions is the *only* > logical (administrative-able) option, correct me if you have something > more encouraged by Fedora that has the same capabilities, > I will be happy to use it.

Well the fact you can't run Fedora on that machine is all well and good, buy another machine you can. We cater for users of Fedora not Windows. > Also for some people that want to manage their applications for > multiple distributions is the *only* > logical (administrative-able) option, correct me if you have something > more encouraged by Fedora that has the same capabilities, > I will be happy to use it. Fedora has always been for Fedora. We have packaging standards that are all a lot different than most other rpm distros and while it might be nice that OBS allows you to do packaging for multiple distros Fedora has never and will never care about other distros. koji does what koji does because it's Fedora. We don't pander to other distros in the hope that someone might just package something for Fedora as well. There's good reasons why we use koji and I very much doubt that will change in the short to medium term just because it makes it easier for you to package things for multiple distros from Windows.

Re: OBS Fedora
Sorry for the top posting. Just my 1 cent , i follow only fedora. But the answer could be only: political in first place. But this is the same for every distro, and this is true, in particular, for every distro rpm based for some reason. Every major rpm distro have its buildsystem, its bugtracker, its deepsolver, its rpm macro, its standard and so on. Difficult that this will change in the near future, if ever. My very long experience tell me this. Best regards (aside) why don't use lauchpad instead ? Because it use bazar as dvcs ? Really ?

I don't think you'd be able to do multiple distros from a single OBS instance even if we were to use OBS code; per Fedora policies Fedora has to be self-hosting, so we wouldn't use SUSE's OBS instance, we'd run one of our own. So you'd still have to use SUSE's OBS for official SUSE packages and Fedora's OBS for official Fedora packages, I think. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel

I don't know if we need a webapp. But some prespun up virtual images for local virtualization or a cloud provider where I can drop my fedora credentials into would be useful for me to be able to do packaging work. Not just commits but baseline testing as well without having to rely on a slow net link to mock build against rawhide. Admittedly I've got some unique constraints. But I'm pretty sure if we can find a technical solution that helps me be more productive sitting in Antarctica sitting at a windows computer in the USAP provided lab, it'll probably scale out for other people. -jef -jef -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
