Anything else for WG/admin? 14:18:07 #topic 2) ==== Fedora 31 status ==== 14:18:53 #info Latest compose available for testing 14:18:59 #link https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/compose/iot/latest-Fedora-IoT-31/ 14:19:34 has anyone hit any issues with the latest f31 compose? 14:19:44 Fedora-IoT-31-20200201.0 14:21:07 I need to deploy a few images in the next couple of days to do more testing 14:23:11 disk image looks ok on basic tests, we do have a bug with podman, but its not iot specific 14:23:33 #info Pull fails with: Image architecture mismatch: image uses "aarch64", expecting "arm64" 14:23:40 #link https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1793927 14:24:36 anything else for f31? 14:25:37 #topic 3) ==== Fedora 32 status ==== 14:27:29 we've been hitting some compose issues in f32 and folks were travelling. 14:28:32 I recently found out that Anaconda is sorta broken for f32 iot. I still need to file a bug after figuring out what exactly is the right fix. (basically, if you don't tell it to do auth setup, it says the user spoke isn't completed, if you do, it crashes at the end because no authconfig or authselect). That, together with travel, is what has been holding up the provisioning release the lsat two weeks basically. 14:29:55 should we add authselect back in for a short term work around? 14:30:34 That'd be a temporary workaround, sure. But I don't know what the dep stack on that looks like 14:31:36 If it's too large, I might just see if I can work around it 14:32:55 it's not too bad, lets to that to move forward. Is there an anaconda bug by chance? 14:33:13 I didn't file one yet, no. This was on my todo list 14:33:56 if you could do that it would be fab, this was/is working with f31 I think do it seems like a regression 14:33:56 I'll try to reproduce today and file one, I didnt hit when I did an install recently on the fitlet2 14:34:14 or if you beat me puiterwijk, drop it in channel 14:35:41 anything else for f32? 14:36:22 #topic 4) ==== Open Floor ==== 14:36:51 I probably should have a bunch of things for here 14:36:59 or more for the other topics 14:38:00 I have a question about the IoT name change ... was there any progress on it? Or are we leaving it as IoT? 14:38:08 great question 14:38:24 tdawson: we need to work out how to come up with a new name 14:38:37 do we hold a poll or a competition or something else 14:38:45 suggestions welcome 14:38:59 I've been told Edgy McEdgeface isn't appropriate :-P 14:39:11 I'd like to give a suggestion ... except I don't have any 14:39:13 heh, too bad 14:39:23 *laughs* That one would have been good. :) 14:39:41 pbrobinson: you mean we weren't going for an online, publicly available, name suggestion with voting? :D 14:39:43 I have some ideas around themes but haven't managed to go from theme to a suitable name 14:40:26 puiterwijk: yea, I mean what could possibly go wrong.... besides I bet bcotton could come up with some bangers of bad names to compete with all of the other worst ones :-P 14:41:33 who me? 😇 14:42:10 Hmm ... since it's very similar to silverblue, except without the graphics and all that, what about SilverGrey ... something that sounds like it. 14:42:11 tdawson: while I think of it I think Moz IoT might be dead, one of the lead developers who was working on it at Moz was made redundant recently, there's been no official announcement though 14:42:46 tdawson: SilverGrey makes it sound like I've named it after myself... may as well go SilverFox and be done :-D 14:42:54 *laughs* 14:43:04 LOL 14:43:45 pbrobinson have you had a chance to look at the mozilla-iot-gateway. I have added a TODO file. 14:43:50 tdawson: also given the packaging up of a pile of nodejs bits how hard would it be to do the same for node-red? https://nodered.org/ 14:43:59 lets all try to think of cool names and come back to it next week 14:44:01 Concerning the other comment I don't know anything of. 14:44:06 dressedfez: got a link to that PR or git repo? 14:44:08 pbrobinson: Bummer about Moz IoT ... but I also know they are having financial problems. 14:44:55 just a second 14:44:57 *doh* That totally dropped off my todo list ... the Moz Iot container. 14:45:35 https://pagure.io/mozilla-iot-gateway-container 14:45:44 #link: https://pagure.io/mozilla-iot-gateway-container 14:45:54 pbrobinson: if we bundle the nodejs bits, it's alot easier. Hardest part of that is figuring out all the licenses. 14:46:39 tdawson: yes, I think bundling like we did with moz gw is likely the best, the only binary node deps needed is already packaged 14:47:18 so it should end up as one noarch package, or a core one with various sub packages for functionality 14:50:50 Last call for open floor.. 14:51:11 Hmm ... cool ... and I see it already has some work for docker/containers 14:52:12 pbrobinson: I've put nodered on my to-do list. I've got some high priority things on there right now, so I probubly won't be able to start on it until next week. 14:52:47 dressedfez: I have re-added looking at the container on my to-do list. Like node-red, I probrubly won't be able to look at it until next week. 14:53:37 pwhalen: And, that's all I have for open floor. 14:53:45 That's fine. I would like to join in on the node-red stuff including the packing. Please ping me if you have time. 14:54:01 dressedfez: OK, I will 14:54:32 I think talking about the sub-packages and/or package layout would be good, so I don't do things in a weird way. 14:55:31 perhaps take this over to iot if you guys want to chat some more 14:55:35 #endmeeting
