Hey Folks. I wasn't subscribed here until now, so sorry for the
delay...

Hi,
The CVS server that Kevin set up is now interfaced with the FDS
(Fedora Directory Server) for user accounts. No FAS (Fedora Account
System) for the near future (*), but at least accounts are
centralised in the LDAP, not the SSH keys just yet, but that should
be trivial to do.
The following users have access already :
firewing
jwrdegoede
kwizart
musuruan
salimma
scop
thias
thl
It's accessible as follows :
export CVSROOT=:ext:username at cvs.rpmfusion.org:/cvs/pkgs
cvs co rpms
I'm pretty sure it won't work because some groups still need to be
set... ah, the wonders of CVS! Kevin : Will you take care of that? Do
we need fine grained access using extended attributes for instance?
All those folks will need to be in the cvsextras group (504).
Should I just add them locally on that machine? Or do you want to set
that as their group in FDS?

(*) Fedora currently uses FAS1 which is considered obsolete, so it
would be a waste of effort to implement it, and FAS2 is still being
worked on, and nowhere near a usable state. But since we're using FDS,
it should be easy-ish to migrate to FAS2 once it's released, then also
to use pkgdb.
Cool.

Just wondering: will we use one root for both free and nonfree? Or
should we better separate them with
export CVSROOT=:ext:username at cvs.rpmfusion.org:/cvs/free
and
export CVSROOT=:ext:username at cvs.rpmfusion.org:/cvs/nonfree
Separating sounds like the better way if we ever start things like
{replacements,nosrc,latestfoo,somethingstupid,whatever}.rpmfusion.org
in the long term.
Sure, we can do that I think. Might require some mods to scripts.

Hi All,
Great work on the getting the CVS server up!
Questions:
a) What are we going todo regarding F-9 release ?
I know that since livna and dribble also build all their packages for devel,
that they are pretty much ready to go.
I also know that AFAIK Matthias doesn't and its quite a bit of work for him to
get freshrpms ready.
I see 2 options:
1) Business as usual for livna and dribble, iow branch for the new release,
make an F-8 repo available. Since quite some work will need to be done for
freshrpms anyways, focus effort on rpmfusion and migrate freshrpms users
directly to rpmfusion (which will hopefully be ready for this say 10 days after
F-9 launch)
2) Draw a line for all involved repos and do not do an F-8 repo for livna /
dribble, we could add a news item saying that those livna / dribble users who
really cannot wait to move to F-8 can use the development repo's of dribble /
livna.
b) When and how can one start importing packages into CVS?
c) When and how can one build packages (once imported)?
d) What about he look a side cache, do all Sources and Patches not in CVS need
to have working URL's?
Thanks & Regards,
Hans

My 2 cent:
* I still hope to get cvs running soon (I don't have access to the CVS
machine, not sure what the status is). I have lots of free time tomorrow
and hope to mass-import and build the livna packages (and other SRPMS,
if somebody tells me where to find them) that are prepared for rpmfusion
(most are afaics) if it's CVS gets ready today
* users want to update from F7 to F8 -- if rpmfusion doesn't have most
of the stuff that was in the old repos by F8 release then the old repos
IMHO *must* create a F8 branch -- otherwise people run in lots of
dependency issues which creates a lot of trouble for them.
* if rpmfusion is fully ready in time I think I at least will create a
livna F-8 repo with a rpmfusion-release repo files in it
Side note: how to spread rpmfusion repos over the servers is still not
solved. Matthias, we need you input here!

c) When and how can one build packages (once imported)?
Not sure what problems come up when CVS is there and I switch plague to
use it -- but plague is ready for weeks now.
d) What about he look a side cache, do all Sources and Patches not in
CVS need
to have working URL's?
In livna they should.

I've created a "cvsusers" group in the FDS, and added all existing
accounts to it. I'll now create the "cvsadmin" group and add the
current members to it, and create your account too ;-)
This should be pretty much it for the CVS server, no? Is anything else
needed for people to start importing reviewed/approved packages?

look-aside cache is needed -- that requires a user cert for uploading,
which we need to generate for the buildsys as well. In Fedora that is
magically done by FAS and some script. As we have no FAS I need to talk
to some of the Fedora guys how to make it work. Will do that over the
next few days. But if anybody else is wants to take care of it: just let
me know.
