| 13:59:54 | stephenfin | the change you're thinking of was that we had to move off Ubuntu 20.04 since that ships with Python 3.8 by default | |
| 14:00:07 | stephenfin | move the packaging job off that, more specifically | |
| 14:00:18 | sean-k-mooney | ah it was https://review.rdoproject.org/r/c/deps/python-setuptools/+/58844 | |
| 14:00:37 | sean-k-mooney | stephenfin: for reason rdo was still using 65.5.1 | |
| 14:01:03 | sean-k-mooney | but we fixed that in may so all good | |
| 14:01:22 | stephenfin | cool | |
| 14:01:41 | stephenfin | I mean, if you're talking strictly about packaging rdo could always carry a revert patch too | |
| 14:01:53 | sean-k-mooney | stephenfin: no i was aware of that as well (moving off 20.04) but that was not the only place usign old things to build | |
| 14:02:17 | sean-k-mooney | in general i woudl not advise they ever do that | |
| 14:02:19 | sean-k-mooney | but yes | |
| 14:02:37 | sean-k-mooney | rdo shoudl not carrry patches to the code | |
| 14:02:49 | stephenfin | The distro setuptools version no longer matters for installs with pip since builds are isolated by default, so it would only be packaging (or the aforementioned "my Python is too old") scenarios that would break | |
| 14:03:07 | stephenfin | agree, but the escape hatch is there | |
| 14:03:31 | stephenfin | speaking of escape hatches, looks like setuptools' docs aren't happy https://setuptools.pypa.io/en/latest/userguide/license_migration.html | |
| 14:03:47 | sean-k-mooney | yep, although i belive we have to disabel build isolation in some case for downsteam reasons | |
| 14:03:53 | stephenfin | I could fix it but they ignore my issues so 🤷 | |
| 14:04:05 | sean-k-mooney | specifcly to use a fips complient python-cyrotography | |
| 14:04:10 | stephenfin | not bitter... | |
| 14:04:47 | stephenfin | sean-k-mooney: you need a fips-complint cryptopgraphy during build?? | |
| 14:04:51 | stephenfin | *compliant | |
| 14:05:16 | sean-k-mooney | yes and in the final artifact | |
| 14:05:35 | sean-k-mooney | anyway htat out of scope fo upstream | |
| 14:06:30 | sean-k-mooney | but downstream python3-cyrptograph must come form the rpms for complance reasons as it need to be built with a specific fips certifed version fo openssl ectra | |

| 16:05:14 | Uggla | Anything new about the gate? | |
| 16:05:42 | gibi | I had to put the functional test stabiliziton on hold for now due to internal priorities. But we still have some unstability in the functional threading job | |
| 16:05:48 | gibi | and I have in flight patches to work on | |
| 16:05:53 | gibi | but it need to wait a bit | |
| 16:06:09 | Uggla | Yep I know about one on my side. | |
| 16:06:27 | gibi | feel free to ping me if you see a functional instability and I will help judging it if it needs a new tracker or if we already have one | |
| 16:07:22 | Uggla | are we good for that topic ? | |

| 16:10:40 | Uggla | #topic Stable Branches | |
| 16:10:42 | bauzas | (more time than the time it takes for the light in between Moon and Earth, but less than a Earth round) | |
| 16:11:13 | Uggla | I know elodilles is on a business trip so I don't know if he can make it. | |
| 16:12:12 | Uggla | seems not, so lets move on or defer it later. | |
| 16:12:16 | gibi | I think it is pretty late for Elod at the moment | |
| 16:12:41 | Uggla | yep probably. | |
| 16:12:53 | Uggla | #topic vmwareapi 3rd-party CI efforts Highlights | |
| 16:13:00 | fwiesel | Hi, no updates from my side. | |
| 16:13:02 | Uggla | fwiesel something you'd like to share? | |
| 16:13:14 | Uggla | ok thanks. Welcome back! | |
| 16:13:20 | fwiesel | Thanks! | |
| 16:13:29 | Uggla | #topic Kamil's news about eventlet removal | |
| 16:13:39 | Uggla | sambork, gibi something to report on that front ? | |
| 16:14:06 | sambork | Not much since last week, key fix: restored eager thread executor creation in service managers rather than lazily in thread_pool_factory.py (#1001572) .Meanwhile, patch 1001369 (native threading test fix) waiting for update. Separately, patch 997410 (review) was updated to use futurist.DelayingExecutor, though it will merge in next release | |
| 16:14:22 | sambork | eom | |
| 16:15:00 | gibi | nothing to add form my side. I will continue stabilizing the functional tests when I get some time | |
| 16:15:34 | Uggla | sambork, gibi I'll notify you about the HL patch as soon as ready, so we could iterate to report the meaningful changes. | |
| 16:16:18 | Uggla | skipping sdk for neutron topic as Layos is not available. | |
