Topics

  • Status review and planning of next steps for cockpit (https://trello.com/c/HV4iDIZi/11-branding-cockpit)
    • Newest Cockpit with patched-in support for themes in its way to TW.
    • New cockpit-suse-theme package also in its way.
    • Hopefully next TW release will include the newest themeable Cockpit and the SUSE theme.
    • Added requisites for the (hopefully) upcoming official theme support for Cockpit.
  • Status review and planning of next steps for containerizing YaST modules (https://trello.com/c/XdToxBBZ/22-yast-migrate-other-modules)
    • Very good progress, many modules just work or are easily adaptable.
    • Main current blocker: libstorage-ng
      • Several YaST modules depend (in)directly on it.
      • Adapting libstorage-ng to work in our scenario looks doable. Maybe just a matter of adding a new probing mode.
      • Ancor contacted Arvin Schnell (libstorage-ng developer/maintainer) about it, awaiting reply.
    • Running subprocesses in containers is very slow and that affects specially the YaST Services Manager.
    • Question - should we also target modules that configure services like yast2-dns-server or yast2-iscsi-lio-server?
      • Many of those services will run containerized on ALP - what does that imply for YaST?
      • Ancor to look for clarification on that topic in some general ALP meeting.
  • Status review and planning of next steps for adapting containerized YaST to BCI (https://trello.com/c/sjorYHFz/18-yast-move-to-bci)
    • Everything working but an ugly hack was needed because the format of the RPM databases of host and container image are different.
    • We want to contact Marco to check what are the possible non-hacky solutions.
  • Status update on some ALP topics:
  • Next meeting
    • Cannot be next Friday since half of the people would be missing
    • Moved to Thursday June 23rd at 12:00 UTC
