#4964 Spins for F16
Closed: Fixed None Opened 12 years ago by cwickert.

Please find the list of spins that need to be composed for Fedora 16 at
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/16/Spins

We have two new spins, Robotics and Science.

Not listed here is the Multi Desktop Spin and the Biarch Installation DVD.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact me.


so robotics and scientific-kde spins fail to compose.
scientific-kde due to
Error creating Live CD : Failed to build transaction : glibc-2.14.90-13.i686 requires glibc-common = 2.14.90-13
which will be because we dont mulitlib the bleed repo and we have a newer glibc, is it expected the 64 bit spin pulls in 32 bit packages?

robotics due to
Error creating Live CD : Failed to build transaction : player-3.0.2-13.fc16.x86_64 requires libgeos-3.3.0.so()(64bit)

design suite failed with Error creating Live CD : Failed to find package 'agave' : No package(s) available to install

http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/stage/16.RC1/

the games spin is still being made, and there were 3 that failed to compose, the 2 new ones, scientfic-kde and robotics as well as design suite

All these are fixed in git already, but we need a new spin-kickstarts package. 0.16.4 is not enough.

we dont use the spins-kickstarts package at all. we just build straight from git. the issue with the scientific-kde spin i think is that wine is in the list, we have always had an assumtion that all the spins are single arch.

fixed the dep issue for scientific-kde and now get DEBUG util.py:247: installing package ipw2100-firmware-1.3-12.fc15.noarch needs 926MB on the / filesystem
DEBUG util.py:247: Error creating Live CD : Unable to install: Could not run transaction.

I just fixed another issue in the LXDE spin. Will this be included in the compose?

Please drop me a line if all spins are composing successfully. I will then build the spin-kickstarts-0.16.5 - hopefully the final package.

Is it possible to do one last spin of the Robotics LiveDVD before the F16 release? We have an update that enables the anaconda.desktop file so users can install to disk that we're ready to push to git (we should have caught this earlier.) If so, I can push the update to the spin-kickstarts git this evening.

im sorry it is to late for respinning anything now. its in the process of going to the mirrors.

So where are the final images now? Was RC5 declared Gold?

We need the ISOs ASAP to start the media production and we need to ISOs of the Multi DVDs, too (Multi Desktop Spin and Biarch installer).

BTW: This time the Multi Desktop spin should include Sugar, too.
