Description Andrew Hsu 2016-10-19 18:01:58 UTC
Description of problem:

Not sure if this is the correct place to raise this issue...I'd like to request a docker image on docker hub for the Fedora 25 beta so that I can build RPMs and do other development stuff in a docker container in preparation for the Fedora 25 GA release on November 15, 2016.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Fedora 25 Beta

How reproducible:

Every time, I suppose.

Steps to Reproduce:

$ docker run --rm -i -t --entrypoint=/bin/bash fedora:25-beta

Actual results:

$ docker run --rm -i -t --entrypoint=/bin/bash fedora:25-beta
Unable to find image 'fedora:25-beta' locally
Pulling repository docker.io/library/fedora
docker: Tag 25-beta not found in repository docker.io/library/fedora.
See 'docker run --help'.

Expected results:

$ docker run --rm -i -t --entrypoint=/bin/bash fedora:25-beta
[root@24c641204366 /]#

Additional info:

Perhaps this docker image can be used to upload to docker hub? Perhaps this image can be used? https://getfedora.org/en/cloud/prerelease/docker.html

I've also created a github issue in the repo that needs a PR to create the image: https://github.com/fedora-cloud/docker-brew-fedora/issues/40

Fedora has historically not released anything pre-GA to the Docker Hub (with Rawhide being it's own separate thing that is not treated the same as releases in most regards). Testing images are available via koji and in the future will be available via Fedora's docker registry.

Ah, thanks. As near as I can tell this means:

1. Go to http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/builds?userID=releng
   (not available over https!)
2. Select a green Fedora-Docker-Base image.
3. Download the .tar.xz image from the build information page
4. docker load -i Fedora-Docker-Base-$ver-$date.$rev.x86_64.tar.xz

You then have a container you can start.

There are similar instructions for the upcoming release on https://getfedora.org/en/cloud/prerelease/docker.html and allow better verification.

Good to know. Having fedora-specific resources is excellent for advanced users, but discoverability is also important, which is what the official docker, etc. registries offer.

Closing ticket as WONTFIX since the fedora:25 image was pushed to official docker hub on 2016-11-23: https://hub.docker.com/r/library/fedora/tags/25/
