16:09:04 bauzas #info Dalmatian-3 in 1 week
16:09:10 bauzas #info non-client library freeze happened last week
16:09:15 bauzas #info client library freeze this week
16:09:23 bauzas sean-k-mooney: want to discss the novaclient issue ?
16:10:13 dansmith I kinda have something for release planning
16:10:20 sean-k-mooney we have 2 issues
16:10:30 sean-k-mooney the first one is just a ci job issue
16:10:45 sean-k-mooney the functioanl job is exepcting there to only be one network
16:10:45 bauzas okay, tell me both
16:10:54 sean-k-mooney there are now 2
16:10:58 sean-k-mooney so 2 tests fail
16:11:10 sean-k-mooney we can update them to skip or modify them to use the first network
16:11:18 sean-k-mooney stephenfin: has a patch for the latter
16:11:48 sean-k-mooney the second issue is the cli does not work on python 3.11
16:11:59 sean-k-mooney it was deprecated when the newest veriohn we supproted was 3.9
16:11:59 bauzas this is a priority before we release novaclient IMHO
16:12:41 sean-k-mooney so i think we need to look at removing the nova client cli in 2025.1 and the python bidnign by 2026.1
16:12:58 sean-k-mooney that is a ptg discussion that im hopign melwitt and stephenfin can partake in
16:13:26 sean-k-mooney to actully do that we need to dicsuss with neutron and heat to get them to swap to the sdk
16:13:31 bauzas https://github.com/openstack/python-novaclient/blob/master/setup.cfg#L22-L24
16:13:43 bauzas are you saying that we don't have any job testing 3.11 ?
16:13:49 sean-k-mooney we do and it fails
16:13:59 sean-k-mooney but we deprecated the cli before that
16:14:16 bauzas oh, you're saying the deprecation of the CLI
16:14:16 sean-k-mooney so the cli has not been updated to supprot py311
16:14:22 bauzas I see
16:14:40 sean-k-mooney the 3.11 issue is a change in argparse behavior
16:14:44 sean-k-mooney so only affect the cli
16:14:55 bauzas this is deprecated, but we could provide some exception telling "sorry, we only support up to 3.9 for the CLI"
16:14:57 sean-k-mooney anyway there are two patches to fix the 3.11 issue
16:15:31 sean-k-mooney so the main question is do we quickly fix this for 2024.2
16:15:32 bauzas we could backport such patches then
16:15:51 sean-k-mooney and then look at removing the shell in 2025.1/2
16:16:04 bauzas I think we should rather just fix the 3.11 issues
16:16:12 sean-k-mooney actully we can dicussss post 2024.1 at the ptg
16:16:37 bauzas we can write some relnote before we release explaning the status of the CLI if you wan
16:16:39 bauzas want*
16:16:53 sean-k-mooney well the cil is deprecated for removal
16:17:01 sean-k-mooney so unless we are going to set a release there is no point
16:17:15 sean-k-mooney im hoping to deprecate the entire project in 2025.1
16:17:18 bauzas at a previous PTG, we said we preferred to defer the removal
16:17:19 elodilles with the relmgt hat on, i like the idea of landing the two patch that fixes the gate o:) (thanks sean-k-mooney for bringing this topic up :))
16:17:46 bauzas there are people continuing to run scrips with the CLI
16:17:47 sean-k-mooney ok then all we need to do is see if we are happy with stephenfin patch for functional
16:17:55 sean-k-mooney and then we can merge one of the two patches for 3.11
16:18:05 sean-k-mooney and backport those to stable branches
16:18:07 sean-k-mooney if needed
16:18:17 bauzas could you please add all the patches in the release etherpad if they're not there yet ?
16:18:27 bauzas for tracking
16:18:28 sean-k-mooney yep
16:18:32 bauzas thanks
16:18:40 bauzas do both of the problems have bug reports against them ?
16:18:50 sean-k-mooney yes i think so
16:18:53 bauzas cool
16:18:59 bauzas sean-k-mooney: thanks for helping
16:19:06 bauzas dansmith: you had a comment
16:19:07 elodilles yepp, thanks sean-k-mooney \o/
16:19:28 dansmith bauzas: release-wise, i think it's critical that we get this into 2024.2: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/925025
16:19:39 dansmith it will reduce the number of releases where we carry the format_inspector stuff,
16:19:54 dansmith and the sooner we get that in the more coverage we'll get before the release
16:20:02 bauzas good point
16:20:08 bauzas I'll add it to the tracker
16:20:12 dansmith just made the oslo release, so we should take advantage of it
16:20:14 gibi I can start my tomorrow on that commit
16:20:17 bauzas ++
16:20:24 dansmith gibi: thanks
16:20:29 bauzas I can review that patch
16:20:44 bauzas (I actually reviewed the first patch that added the module :) )
16:21:01 dansmith -1741 +55
16:21:04 dansmith pretty good stats :)
16:21:13 gibi dansmith: nice work!
16:21:32 bauzas yeah, thanks for having worked on it from the last semester :)
