Getting OBS to build virt-builder repositories
an invention by cbosdonnat
Updated almost 8 years ago. No love.

virt-builder main repository contains quite a few distro images, but no opensuse one. The goal of this project is to make OBS able to create a virt-builder repository out of a few kiwi packages. Ideally this would later be used to provide some official opensuse images for virt-builder.

Looking for hackers with the skills:

      Managed to get this done with a project like home:cbosdonnat:Builder and this OBS patch PR#909

    Automation of ABI compatibility checks by ateixeira

    Description

    ABI compatibility checks could be further automated by using the OBS API to download built RPMs and using existing tools to analyze ABI compatibility between the libraries contained in those packages. This project aims to explore these possibilities and figure out a way to make ABI checks as painless and fast as possible for package maintainers.

    Research openqa-trigger-from-obs and openqa-trigger-from-ibs-plugin by qwang

    Description

    openqa-trigger-from-obs project is a framework that OSD is using it to automatically sync the defined images and repositories from OBS/IBS to its assets for testing. This framework very likely will be used for the synchronize to each location's openqa include openqa.qa2.suse.asia Beijing local procy scc scc-proxy.suse.asia(although it's not a MUST to our testing) it's now rewriting requests to openqa.qa2.suse.asia instead of openqa.suse.de, the assets/repo should be consistent the format Beijing local openQA is maintaining an own script but still need many manually activities when new build comes, and not consistent to OSD, that will request many test code change due to CC network change

    Goals

    Research this framework in case it will be re-used for Beijing local openQA, and will need to be setup and maintained by ourselves

    Bootstrap openSUSE on LoongArch by glaubitz

    Description

    LoongArch is a new architecture from China which has its roots in the MIPS architecture. It has been created by Loongson and is already supported by Debian Ports, Gentoo and Loongnix.

    Upstream support for LoongArch is already quite complete which includes LLVM, Rust, Golang, GRUB, QEMU, LibreOffice and many more. In Debian Ports, where the port is called "loong64", more than 95% of the whole Debian archive have been successfully built for LoongArch.

    QEMU support is rather complete and stable such that packages can be built in emulated environments. Hardware can also be requested by Loongson on request for free. Access to real hardware is also provided through the GCC Compile Farm.

    Goals

    The initial goal should be to add LoongArch to OBS and build a minimal set of packages.

    Fix RSpec tests in order to replace the ruby-ldap rubygem in OBS by enavarro_suse

    Description

    "LDAP mode is not official supported by OBS!". See: config/options.yml.example#L100-L102

    However, there is an RSpec file which tests LDAP mode in OBS. These tests use the ruby-ldap rubygem, mocking the results returned by a LDAP server.

    The ruby-ldap rubygem seems no longer maintaned, and also prevents from updating to a more recent Ruby version. A good alternative is to replace it with the net-ldap rubygem.

    Before replacing the ruby-ldap rubygem, we should modify the tests so the don't mock the responses of a LDAP server. Instead, we should modify the tests and run them against a real LDAP server.

    Goals

    Goals of this project:

    • Modify the RSpec tests and run them against a real LDAP server
    • Replace the net-ldap rubygem with the ruby-ldap rubygem

    Achieving the above mentioned goals will:

    • Permit upgrading OBS from Ruby 3.1 to Ruby 3.2
    • Make a step towards officially supporting LDAP in OBS.
