Pungi Refactor

Summary

Changing how pungi works to make composes more distributed and transparent.

Owner

Current status

Detailed Description

Changing how pungi works to make composes, we aim to achieve a few goals.

  • Always do a complete compose, including rawhide and branched. Essentially we will have TC composes daily.
  • Make sure that the tools used to make Fedora translate directly to making RHEL
  • Enable more people to be involved in the development of compose tools
  • Farm off compose tasks to hosts in koji

Benefit to Fedora

  • Faster composes
  • More frequent composes
  • Nightly composes will look the same as a release compose
  • More transparent and publicly visible logs.
  • More people able to work on the tools used to make Fedora


Scope

  • Proposal owners: Extend the functionality of pungi and koji
  • Other developers: NA
  • Release engineering: This will be a major change in how releng does composes
  • Policies and guidelines: releng docs on how to do composes will need updating
  • Trademark approval: N/A (not needed for this Change)

Upgrade/compatibility impact

There will be no changes to existing installs, The release tree will probably look a little differently and some files will have different names

How To Test

TODO

User Experience

Fedora Composes may look a bit different to previously but have all the same functionality.

Dependencies

livemedia-creator change

Contingency Plan

If we are unable to get the compose process changed before Alpha Change freeze we will revert to using the old method of composing Fedora.

  • Contingency mechanism: (What to do? Who will do it?) N/A (not a System Wide Change)
  • Contingency deadline: Alpha Change freeze
  • Blocks release? Yes
  • Blocks product? All
