Yeah, rushing things in secret tends to cause weird divergences like that. 14:16:05 upstream adopted that feature later and with a different name 14:16:29 anyway, that's it from me I think 14:17:09 Out of curiosity, how do you plan to resolve it in the SIG packages? Presumably RHEL is going to keep the old name for compatibility? Or are they going to handle both? 14:18:00 gwd: I hope I could just switch to the new name as the old name was not actually working anyway, but I'm not quite sure yet 14:18:29 OK. 14:18:35 anthonyper, you want to give a Xen update? 14:18:37 gwd: if RHEL7 ever rebases to something newer, I'll have to deal with it there too :) 14:19:02 gwd: I don't have any update. 14:19:33 otherwise RHEL is fine since arch-facilities blocks migrations so we don't have to deal with compatibility of the name between RHEL 7 and 8 14:20:16 #topic Xen update 14:20:40 anthonyper: Any work done yet on 4.12 packages? 14:21:03 Also, looks like for CentOS 8 we'll need to tweak the packages due to there being no python package 14:21:23 Sorry, no binary named `python`, only `python2` or `python3` (IIRC) 14:21:59 It's just going to be backports, isn't it? :-) 14:22:43 More likely it will be setting `PYTHON=python3` or something in a handful of places 14:22:53 About 4.12, people can try `yum install centos-release-xen-412`. 14:23:15 There seems to be bugs with the package that I need to take careof. 14:23:35 #info Try `yum install centos-release-xen-412`; there are still a few bugs to take care of 14:23:44 (To get this highlighted in the logs) 14:25:05 OK, sbonazzo? 14:25:21 #topic oVirt updates 14:25:48 #info upstream is preparing to release first candidate for 4.3.4, following up on that with the build in Virt SIG 14:26:14 #info upcoming rebase of cockpit to 193 to be shipped in ovirt common repo 14:26:56 #info preparing for oVirt 4.4 dependencies, aligning with RDO stein for now on the Glance, Neutron and Cinder support 14:27:30 #info upstream work in progress for supporting upcoming CentOS 8 14:28:21 #info upstream work in progress to match CentOS Storage SIG's Gluster 6 releases 14:29:15 #info also work in progress for supporting CentOS SIG's openshift deployment on oVirt VMs via ansible 14:29:47 Ii think that's it on my side 14:31:25 OK, cool 14:31:29 #topic AOB 14:31:31 Anything else to bring up? 14:34:40 OK, thanks everyone! 14:34:42 #endmeeting
