#12277 remove corrupt orca-47.beta.tar.xz from lookaside
Closed: Fixed with Explanation 7 months ago by kevin. Opened 7 months ago by neil.

  • Describe the issue

It appears I somehow uploaded a corrupt artifact to the lookaside.

+ /usr/lib/rpm/rpmuncompress -x /builddir/build/SOURCES/orca-47.beta.tar.xz
/usr/bin/xz: /builddir/build/SOURCES/orca-47.beta.tar.xz: Unexpected end of input
/usr/bin/tar: Unexpected EOF in archive
/usr/bin/tar: Unexpected EOF in archive

Thank you!

Tarballs in the lookaside cache are stored in a directory of their hash, e.g.

https://src.fedoraproject.org/lookaside/pkgs/orca/orca-47.beta.tar.xz/sha512/51beb00b4dd1b62569dff05e67274a8403d0c483c9bc121d91c03ef8e42c96b55a0ce822089200f54b8e41ee8950a533200bca0665d5568d19c484a04bcdaa8a/orca-47.beta.tar.xz

This means if you end up uploading a corrupted or incorrect tarball, you can just upload the correct one to fix it. It will get stored in a different path if the hash is different, which it should be if you're changing to a non-corrupted tarball in this case. The build will use whichever tarball is referenced by hash in the sources file.

It looks like someone else has already uploaded a working copy of orca-47.beta.tar.xz as

https://src.fedoraproject.org/lookaside/pkgs/orca/orca-47.beta.tar.xz/sha512/51beb00b4dd1b62569dff05e67274a8403d0c483c9bc121d91c03ef8e42c96b55a0ce822089200f54b8e41ee8950a533200bca0665d5568d19c484a04bcdaa8a/orca-47.beta.tar.xz

As long as your sources file references that hash, a build shouldn't be blocked. That said, I'm just commenting from the peanut gallery here with general information, and I'm not sure if releng would prefer to remove the corrupted tarball for good measure or not.

heh, yeah that was me.. I forgot to also update the sources file.

I need more coffee and/or sleep.

Will keep open in case releng wants to remove, but @salimma mentioned it might get garbage collected anyways. From my perspective this can be closed.

Edit:

Thank you Carl!
