Description James Laska 2007-12-13 20:34:28 UTC 
Description of problem:

Both Fedora/7 and Fedora/8 include the new .treeinfo descriptive file.  The
.treeinfo file is required by SNAKE to properly digest the installation source.
 It points to key files created by the compose (stage#2 images, boot media).  

There appears to be a .treeinfo file provided by the fedora Everything repo,
unfortunately, the file contents do not match the repo.  Additionally, I don't
believe the Fedora Everything repo was intended to be installable (e.g. no boot
media images/*).

Examples ... 

 *
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/8/Everything/i386/os/.treeinfo
 *
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/8/Everything/x86_64/os/.treeinfo

Would it be possible to remove or update the .treeinfo file in the Everything repo

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

Fedora/7 and Fedora/8

Actual results:

# curl
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/8/Everything/i386/os/.treeinfo
[general]
family = Fedora
timestamp = 1193822224.97
variant = 
totaldiscs = 1
version = development
discnum = 1
packagedir = Packages
arch = i386

[images-i386]
kernel = images/pxeboot/vmlinuz
initrd = images/pxeboot/initrd.img
boot.iso = images/boot.iso
diskboot.img = images/diskboot.img

[images-xen]
kernel = images/xen/vmlinuz
initrd = images/xen/initrd.img

[stage2]
instimage = images/minstg2.img
mainimage = images/stage2.img

Expected results:

# curl
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/8/Everything/i386/os/.treeinfo
[general]
family = Fedora
timestamp = 1193822224.97
variant = Everything 
version = 8
packagedir = Packages
arch = i386

Additional info:

 * jkeating directed me to two scripts that are used to generate the Everything
repo.

Comment 1 Jesse Keating 2007-12-13 20:48:21 UTC 
It takes extreme needs to modify a release tree, and in my opinion this doesn't
count.  We can prevent the problem from happening in future trees but I'm not
going to modify the existing trees.
Comment 2 James Laska 2007-12-13 21:29:22 UTC 
jkeating: sorry, I should have been clearer ... this bug wasn't intended to
address existing trees

This was meant to track whatever fixes would be required to address this for >= F9
Comment 3 John Poelstra 2007-12-14 00:34:13 UTC 
Reopening to track >= F9
Comment 4 Bug Zapper 2008-05-14 04:11:50 UTC 
Changing version to '9' as part of upcoming Fedora 9 GA.

Comment 5 James Laska 2008-05-21 19:59:24 UTC 
This appears fixed ... the following Everything URL's no longer contain a
.treeinfo file.
