#openstack-nova - 2026-09-07
13:56:33 sean-k-mooney right we had to bump to ubuntu 24.04
13:56:41 sean-k-mooney to have the string form supproted in our package tools
13:56:55 sean-k-mooney i dotn knwo if cents 10 stream ships a new enough setuptools?
13:57:17 sean-k-mooney we just swaped to usign it for pypi in our source to image builds so that hsoudl be fine
13:57:21 sean-k-mooney i just dont knwo about rdo
13:57:31 sean-k-mooney not that that really activly maintianed right now
13:58:31 sean-k-mooney so ya it may jsut be worth checkign the versoin requrieemnt for that before we proced with it
13:58:42 sean-k-mooney that said we have moved a numebr of things to the string already
13:58:57 sean-k-mooney so that ship may have already sailed
13:59:01 stephenfin sean-k-mooney: not quite. The issue was it requires setuptools >= 77.0.0 https://setuptools.pypa.io/en/latest/userguide/license_migration.html
13:59:12 stephenfin and that only supports Python >= 3.9
13:59:40 sean-k-mooney right but it was capped in rdo, i knwo we had to go fix that btu i dont recall if it was merged
13:59:51 sean-k-mooney i think it was but not entirly sure
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 ?

16:10:20 Uggla bauzas sure. Thanks!
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.
16:16:34 Uggla #topic Confidential computing, status of SNP and TDX features
16:16:42 Uggla I guess nothing new here.
16:16:52 tkajinam yeah
