<@tdawson:fedora.im>

18:06:15

I do have one item of Old Business ...

<@dherrera:fedora.im>

18:06:30

:O go for it :D

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

18:06:48

Pat wanted to ask about progressing the h264 stuff

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

18:07:21

We talked about it last week, and I believe a couple of issues were opened with releng.

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

18:09:01

Great ... I should have had this up, and now I'm having issues finding them. Does anyone have those links?

<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>

18:09:30

lemme see

<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>

18:10:10

It is supposed to be done now.

!info The OpenH264 EPEL10 repo is set up now.

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

18:10:34

Very cool.

!hi

<@zodbot:fedora.im>

18:10:50

Michel Lind (salimma) - he / him / his

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

18:10:50

So that means the next step is putting it into epel-release.

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

18:10:56

Hi Michel Lind UTC

<@salimma:fedora.im>

18:13:13

hello! don't let me interrupt your meeting flow

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

18:13:48

Sorry for the delay, I was looking up epel-release to see if we already had a bug open for it, looks like we don't.

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

18:14:13

I can open a bug for epel-release, and if I get to it great ... if any other epel-release maintainers want to do it, great also.

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

18:14:37

But it looks like the hard parts are done.

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

18:15:24

Do we have any other Old Business ?

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

18:16:21

!topic General Issues / Open Floor

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

18:16:28

Do we have anything for the open floor?

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

18:17:59

Sounds like we don't, and we don't very many people here anyway.

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

18:18:33

I'll be here next week, so I'll at least start the meeting ... does it look like anyone else is going to show up?

<@rcallicotte:fedora.im>

18:18:45

I will be around

<@dherrera:fedora.im>

18:19:02

me too

<@salimma:fedora.im>

18:19:12

I am not sure Davide will be back from LPC yet

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

18:19:55

Cool ... There will be some of you around. We can have the meeting ... but if it's light like today, it will probrubly be short.

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

18:20:10

Anything else before we call it a meeting?

<@smooge:fedora.im>

18:21:42

Not from me

<@smooge:fedora.im>

18:21:59

I don't even have an old joke

<@smooge:fedora.im>

18:22:15

Why did the Smoogen cross the road?

<@rcallicotte:fedora.im>

18:22:15

haha

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

18:22:16

Stephen J Smoogen: That's because you ARE an old joke.

<@rcallicotte:fedora.im>

18:22:25

dang

<@smooge:fedora.im>

18:22:56

Ah the old "If you can't tell who the joke is in the room, its probably you"

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

18:23:06

Yep

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

18:23:16

But I'm still curious why the Smoogen crossed the road.

<@smooge:fedora.im>

18:23:39

To get to the "Other Side" 👼

<@salimma:fedora.im>

18:24:05

on the one side.... on the other side...

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

18:24:47

!link https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2421024

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

18:25:05

Sorry, nothing to do with Smooge ... just wanted to get that into the logs.

<@salimma:fedora.im>

18:25:31

so we add it to epel10 only, and rhel users get it starting 10.2 ?

<@salimma:fedora.im>

18:25:36

or also add it to epel10.1?

<@salimma:fedora.im>

18:25:59

(I missed the first few mins, apologies - but from the bugzilla it's a bit unclear which one)

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

18:26:13

That's a good question. I haven't tested it on RHEL 10.1, only CentOS Stream 10.

<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>

18:26:35

I think it would be fine

<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>

18:26:48

depends on what openh264 was built against

<@salimma:fedora.im>

18:26:48

where is Carl to tell us "no no, don't touch epel 10.1" :P

<@dherrera:fedora.im>

18:27:03

I'm here, just go for it :)

<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>

18:27:08

it was built against 10.1, so 10.1+ is fine

<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>

18:27:17

though I suspect it would be fine with 10.0 too

<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>

18:27:21

since its only dep is glibc

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

18:27:32

It's openh264-2.5.1-1.el10_1 ... so 10.1

<@salimma:fedora.im>

18:28:37

oh I have a quick question for after this repo thing

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

18:28:57

OK, I updated the bugzilla, it will go to 10.1 also.

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

18:29:03

Michel Lind UTC: Go for it.

<@salimma:fedora.im>

18:29:17

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2420960 <-- I just noticed this was initially assigned to epel-packagers-sig still

<@salimma:fedora.im>

18:29:50

and there's probably a lot like that. this is probably going to be a long tail thing, but is anyone driving deprecating it?

<@salimma:fedora.im>

18:30:13

it's tricky as I guess we don't want to go back to adding individual users to packages, and.. some SIGs don't want to deal with EPEL

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

18:31:03

It's also an package-by-package thing. Because only the package owner, and releng, can change the EPEL settings.

<@salimma:fedora.im>

18:31:47

I guess if the person who initially requested the package ask releng, that might work? so we can batch it

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

18:32:02

I just lost power ... so I only have about 10 minutes of UPS left.

<@salimma:fedora.im>

18:32:11

e.g. "hey these are the packages I requested adding epel-packagers-sig to, and their corresponding bugzillas - can you change the SIG now"

<@salimma:fedora.im>

18:32:13

oops

<@rcallicotte:fedora.im>

18:32:18

oh no

<@salimma:fedora.im>

18:32:19

let's carry on in the mailing list or pagure

<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>

18:32:22

oh dear

<@salimma:fedora.im>

18:32:27

let troy go offline and save power for emergencies

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

18:32:28

Anything else important before we go?

<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>

18:32:32

nope

<@tdawson:fedora.im>

18:32:42

OK, talk to ya'll next week.

<@rcallicotte:fedora.im>

18:32:43

save yourself Troy, we'll be ok here :)

<@dherrera:fedora.im>

18:32:44

i'm good over here 👍️

<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>
