#7002 fedrepo-req-admin tool not present in F28
Closed: Fixed 5 years ago Opened 5 years ago by tibbs.

  • Describe what you need us to do:

Decide what to do with the fedrepo-req-admin tool, and then... do it?

Basically, the fedrepo-req tool has gone away, merged with fedpkg. The package was retired while rawhide was F28. But that package also contained the fedrepo-req-admin tool (and the underlying python module for the whole thing), which is still needed in order to process SCM admin requests.

Currently F28 does not contain the fedrepo-req-admin tool at all, and the only way to get it is to grab the old source or get an old build out of koji. Fortunately this works. Once F29 moves to python 3.7... who knows?

  • When do you need this?

Before F29 release, I guess. We can keep going for a while but it does need to be dealt with.

  • If we cannot complete your request, what is the impact?

SCM admins wouldn't be able to process SCM requests, so new packages could not enter distribution.

I'll separate out fedrepo-req-admin to a separate git repo and package within the next couple weeks.

@mprahl shall we keep this ticket open until thats done? Or are you good closing it now and just doing the work when you can?

@kevin I'm fine either way. If this is useful to keep open for tracking, then I can make updates here.

I submitted a package review request at:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1589999

Could someone please take it if they have time?

Awesome!

Closing this now... thanks @mprahl !
