Description Jeff Nelson 2020-03-04 16:57:42 UTC
Description of problem:
Update the components in the virt:rhel stream so they reflect the components that were shipped in RHEL AV-8.2.0.

This is effectively a rebase of those components that were rebased in RHEL AV, like libvirt and qemu-kvm.

Expected results:
virt:rhel stream contains the same components that were shipped in RHEL AV-8.2.0.

Additional info:
Bugzillas for those components that are being updated will be tracked here as blockers.

Comment 1 Jeff Nelson 2020-03-04 17:39:35 UTC
These are the differences (as of today) between what is available in virt:rhel versus virt:8.2

Comment 3 Danilo de Paula 2020-04-06 20:47:44 UTC
Hi, can you please grant QA_ACK?
This BZ will be run at twice (for 8.2 and 8.2.1) after GA in both.

Comment 4 Danilo de Paula 2020-04-28 16:44:19 UTC
For the record:

The current build includes all content from av-8.2.1 branch.
The only packages that didn't change are: libiscsi, netcf and sgabios
All the other packages had their dist-git branch updated somehow.

The list of the packages in the module are:

SLOF
hivex
libguestfs
libguestfs-winsupport
libiscsi
libnbd
libvirt
libvirt-dbus
libvirt-python
nbdkit
netcf
perl-Sys-Virt
qemu-kvm
seabios
sgabios
supermin

virtglrenderer was not included in the module, as it's a barerpm in RHEL.
libnbd is included, but it still uses the av-8.2.1 branch (because the RHEL branch was not created yet)

If anyone needs more information about this build: curl https://mbs.engineering.redhat.com/module-build-service/2/module-builds/6423

Comment 8 Danilo de Paula 2020-06-05 16:45:37 UTC
@Jeff, isn't bug 1834479 a duplication of this bug?
At least I'm using this one to justify the updates...

Comment 9 yalzhang@redhat.com 2020-07-13 03:51:57 UTC

This is a known issue.
I needed exception+ in bz#1844296 to be able to update it.
It was granted last thursday, so I will fix this soon.

Those packages are not updated since el8.1.0, so the system just keep reusing them. A known modular feature, or bug, depending on how you look into it.

Comment 11 Danilo de Paula 2020-07-13 18:05:18 UTC
The issue with the seabios package has been fixed in the latest build.

Comment 12 yalzhang@redhat.com 2020-07-14 03:56:21 UTC
Check on latest virt module module-virt-rhel-8030020200713180241-30b713e6 on rhel 8.3, the issue about seabios is fixed:
# yum module info virt:rhel:8030020200713180241

Comment 16 yalzhang@redhat.com 2020-08-11 06:22:44 UTC
Compared the version of latest virt:rhel:8030020200807155218 module with rhel-av 8.2.1 virt module, the result is as expected:
virt:rhel stream contains the content that were shipped in RHEL AV-8.2.1
Some package are with "+el8.1.0" release tag, it is acceptable as comment 14.
Set this bug to be verified.
