If there are no objections, I will go ahead and merge this by the end of this week. Then at the very least rawhide Live images will no longer pull in the gettext base package. ACK, looks correct to me. The specific dep is /usr/libexec/libvirt-guests.sh which is using /usr/bin/gettext.sh, which is in gettext-runtime on f37. After you merge in Fedora, I'll forward the patch upstream Thanks, Cole I went ahead merged it now with a changelog and bump. Shall I go ahead and build it for rawhide? Rawhide looks good now (at least gettext no longer gets pulled into Workstation). BTW do you plan to backport/merge libvirt-8.7.0 to F37 later or maybe should I open another PR for this for F37/libvirt-8.6? (In reply to Jens Petersen from comment #5) > BTW do you plan to backport/merge libvirt-8.7.0 to F37 later or maybe should > I open another PR for this for F37/libvirt-8.6? Please open a PR for that, thanks. We won't be rebasing libvirt in f37 at this point FYI the spec patch is in upstream libvirt.git now too. Sure thing I opened https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/libvirt/pull-request/14 - thanks FEDORA-2022-dad54c6e53 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 37. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2022-dad54c6e53 If this goes into F37 GA then the gettext base package would no longer be pre-installed in Fedora WS, etc. So this would in a sense complete https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/GettextRuntimeSubpackage . The libvirt change has already been in Rawhide since around 12 Sept. > This will help reduce the size of the Fedora Live image(s) etc.
What's the gain (reduction in image size)?
Per the change page, "Space saving of about ~4.7 MB for typical installations." About 1M compressed (so 1M difference in live image size). FEDORA-2022-dad54c6e53 has been pushed to the Fedora 37 testing repository. Soon you'll be able to install the update with the following command: `sudo dnf upgrade --enablerepo=updates-testing --refresh --advisory=FEDORA-2022-dad54c6e53` You can provide feedback for this update here: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2022-dad54c6e53 See also https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Updates_Testing for more information on how to test updates. Discussed at the 2022-11-07 blocker/FE review meeting: https://meetbot-raw.fedoraproject.org/fedora-blocker-review/2022-11-07/ . Rejected as an FE on the basis that the reported benefit is just too small to be worth risking at this point. FEDORA-2022-dad54c6e53 has been pushed to the Fedora 37 stable repository. If problem still persists, please make note of it in this bug report. |
