#9736 Remove perl:5.28 and perl-bootstrap:5.28 modules from Fedora ≥ 33
Closed: Fixed 3 years ago by mohanboddu. Opened 3 years ago by ppisar.

  • Describe the issue

perl:5.28 and perl-bootstrap:5.28 modules have set EOL to 2020-12-01 https://pdc.fedoraproject.org/rest_api/v1/component-branch-slas/?branch_type=module&global_component=perl&branch=5.28. The date was selected because it's the closest to Fedora 33 G.A., because I do not want to maintain it in Fedora ≥ 33. Thus it does not make sense to release Fedora 33 with the module.

Please remove perl:5.28 and perl-bootstrap:5.28 from Fedora ≥ 33 modular repositories.

Explanation: All modules have EOLs on December or June 1st. (fedpkg request-branch does not accept different dates). These two dates were preset to follow Fedora release cadence. However, over the time, Fedora schedule drifted from the dates. Until https://pagure.io/releng/issue/9359 is implemented, EOLed modules mus be manually removed from developmental Fedora branches to prevent from releasing them into a new stable Fedora release and confusing the users.

  • When do you need this?

Before Fedora 33 G.A. That's 2020-10-20 according to https://fedorapeople.org/groups/schedule/f-33/f-33-key-tasks.html.

  • When is this no longer needed or useful?

After 2020-10-20.

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

Fedora 33 modular repository will contain unsupported modules.


@ppisar EOL in PDC is set to today. I am not sure if it is enough.

Please change EOL also for perl-bootstrap:5.28.

I'm also curious whether Pungi consults PDC and the module streams will disappear from the next compose.

@humaton FYI, we need to untag all the module builds in f33-modular and f34-modular for perl:5.28 and perl-bootstrap:5.28
