We'd like to have a package-team@ BZ alias to own all the rpm/yum/etc. stuff:
rpm yum yum-utils createrepo yum-metadata-parser
...much like the kernel/anaconda ones (just populate with everyone on the current assign/CC lists).
If there's a std. naming scheme, then we can use that instead, but the above naming scheme should match what we are trying for in RHEL too.
And, of course, I managed to screw up the email address ... to match it would be:
packaging-team@fedora...
And add python-urlgrabber to the list of packages. goes to get more tea.
ok, so the alias should have anyone who has watchbugzilla on any of the existing components on any branch?
(Note that they would then get 2 emails until they removed watchbugzilla) Also, it would require us to add/remove people when needed. Some groups have avoided this overhead by making the alias point to a mailing list and just using that.
Would you prefer the static alias, or a mailing list?
Not sure about watchbugzilla (how do I see that?) ... I don't think so. The main people are the ones who are on the assigned and auto on the CC list (all @redhat, apart from tim, IIRC).
Here's the list of people who get auto-CC'd onto bugzilla bugs for any of those packages:
ffesti,james,maxamillion,pmatilai,timlau,zpavlas,jnovy,jbowes,lmacken
(minus skvidal who already said he doesn't need to be on this ;-)
Steps taken:
Add an alias for packaging-team in the aliases template in puppet. This gets pushed out to bastion.
Add a pseudo user in fas for the packaging-team. This user has a low uid and is not in any groups.
Add a bugzilla account for this user.
For each package in the list, looked at the pkgdb information and performed the following in the devel branch (for fedora bugzilla perms, everything is calculated off the devel branch): If the owner wasn't also a comaintainer, make them a comaint. Then set the owner to be the packaging-team pseudo-user.
Should be doing what you want now; please let us know if anything seems wrong after this change.
