Improve OBS service scripts
For every instance of OBS, each time the obs-api package is updated the obsapidelayed service is reloaded. This takes more time than is expected.
Task to be done are:
- Be sure the status returned by
systemctl status obsapidelayed.servicedoesn't return anactive (running)state whe some of the children are dead. - Migrate SysV service configuration to Systemd, and get rid of SysV.

I'd been poking at this on-and-off for a while for the porting/packaging of OBS to Fedora. If you need a hand here, please let me know!

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.

Git CI to automate the creation of product definition by gyribeiro
Description
Automate the creation of product definition
Goals
Create a Git CI that will:
- automatically be triggered once a change (commit) in package list is done.
- run tool responsible to update product definition based on the changes in package list
- test the updated product definition in OBS
- submit a pull request updating the product definition in the repository
NOTE: this Git CI may also be triggered manually

Testing and adding GNU/Linux distributions on Uyuni by juliogonzalezgil
Join the Gitter channel! https://gitter.im/uyuni-project/hackweek
Uyuni is a configuration and infrastructure management tool that saves you time and headaches when you have to manage and update tens, hundreds or even thousands of machines. It also manages configuration, can run audits, build image containers, monitor and much more!
Currently there are a few distributions that are completely untested on Uyuni or SUSE Manager (AFAIK) or just not tested since a long time, and could be interesting knowing how hard would be working with them and, if possible, fix whatever is broken.
For newcomers, the easiest distributions are those based on DEB or RPM packages. Distributions with other package formats are doable, but will require adapting the Python and Java code to be able to sync and analyze such packages (and if salt does not support those packages, it will need changes as well). So if you want a distribution with other packages, make sure you are comfortable handling such changes.
No developer experience? No worries! We had non-developers contributors in the past, and we are ready to help as long as you are willing to learn. If you don't want to code at all, you can also help us preparing the documentation after someone else has the initial code ready, or you could also help with testing :-)
The idea is testing Salt and Salt-ssh clients, but NOT traditional clients, which are deprecated.
To consider that a distribution has basic support, we should cover at least (points 3-6 are to be tested for both salt minions and salt ssh minions):
- Reposync (this will require using spacewalk-common-channels and adding channels to the .ini file)
- Onboarding (salt minion from UI, salt minion from bootstrap scritp, and salt-ssh minion) (this will probably require adding OS to the bootstrap repository creator)
- Package management (install, remove, update...)
- Patching
- Applying any basic salt state (including a formula)
- Salt remote commands
- Bonus point: Java part for product identification, and monitoring enablement
- Bonus point: sumaform enablement (https://github.com/uyuni-project/sumaform)
- Bonus point: Documentation (https://github.com/uyuni-project/uyuni-docs)
- Bonus point: testsuite enablement (https://github.com/uyuni-project/uyuni/tree/master/testsuite)
If something is breaking: we can try to fix it, but the main idea is research how supported it is right now. Beyond that it's up to each project member how much to hack :-)
- If you don't have knowledge about some of the steps: ask the team
- If you still don't know what to do: switch to another distribution and keep testing.
This card is for EVERYONE, not just developers. Seriously! We had people from other teams helping that were not developers, and added support for Debian and new SUSE Linux Enterprise and openSUSE Leap versions :-)

Explore the integration between OBS and GitHub by pdostal
Project Description
The goals:
1) When GitHub pull request is created or modified the OBS project will be forked and the build results reported back to GitHub. 2) When new version of the GitHub project will be published the OBS will redownload the source and rebuild the project.
Goal for this Hackweek
Do as much as possible, blog about it and maybe use it another existing project.

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-ldaprubygem with theruby-ldaprubygem
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.

Explore simple and distro indipendent declarative Linux starting on Tumbleweed or Arch Linux by janvhs
Description
Inspired by mkosi the idea is to experiment with a declarative approach of defining Linux systems. A lot of tools already make it possible to manage the systems infrastructure by using description files, rather than manual invocation. An example for this are systemd presets for managing enabled services or the /etc/fstab file for describing how partitions should be mounted.
If we would take inspiration from openSUSE MicroOS and their handling of the /etc/ directory, we could theoretically use systemd-sysupdate to swap out the /usr/ partition and create an A/B boot scheme, where the /usr/ partition is always freshly built according to a central system description. In the best case it would be possible to still utilise snapshots, but an A/B root scheme would be sufficient for the beginning. This way you could get the benefit of NixOS's declarative system definition, but still use the distros package repositories and don't have to deal with the overhead of Flakes or the Nix language.
Goals
- A simple and understandable system
- Check fitness of
mkosior write a simple extensible image builder tool for it - Create a declarative system specification
- Create a system with swappable
/usr/partition - Create an A/B root scheme
- Swap to the new system without reboot (kexec?)
