Description Martin Pitt 2021-05-10 04:06:08 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1958684 +++

Description of problem:
Cockpit Machines does not allow installation of Fedora 34 via the Download an OS method

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
cockpit-machines-243.1-1.fc34.noarch

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. install and start cockpit-machines
2. try to install new virtual machine
3. select installation type "Download an OS"

Actual results:
Fedora 34 is not available

Expected results:
Fedora 34 and Rawhide being available options


Additional info:
I am using this for testing issues before filing bug reports, so it as pity that
it is not easy to checkout an issue on the latest version of Fedora.

--- Additional comment from Martin Pitt on 2021-05-10 04:05:02 UTC ---

I think this is mostly because /usr/share/osinfo/os/fedoraproject.org/fedora-34.xml in osinfo-db still marks Fedora 34 as prerelease. That of course is out of date now, so I clone the bug for osinfo-db.

Katarina: However, is there a particular reason why we don't allow pre-release versions? We could show them as "<name> (prerelease)" to give a little warning, but indeed it is very useful to try out development series in a VM?

Martin,

Firstly let me say thanks for cloning this one to osinfo-db.

This was solved a week ago or so, but a release was not done yet:
https://gitlab.com/libosinfo/osinfo-db/-/merge_requests/301

I'll go ahead and cut a new release at some point this week.

I agree, I think we should always show "prereleased"  distros and this is not only related to Fedora, but also how we display alpha & beta releases, such as RHEL 8.4 beta, or RHEL 9.0 alpha.
