Description Bob Doolittle 2014-05-14 18:43:40 UTC
NOTE: I can't find a decent category for "website/repository", so this category assignment is somewhat random. Somebody should make a new category which is suited to such issues.

Description of problem:

There are a number of obsolete and hazardous versions of ovirt-release on the website, which if somebody stumbles across and uses will cause problems with configuration/installation. Some examples:
http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-3.4/rpm/fc19/noarch/ovirt-release-11.2.0-1.noarch.rpm
If installed this will introduce a known-buggy version of VDSM.

http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-3.4/rpm/fc19/noarch/ovirt-release-11.1.0-1.noarch.rpm

Many more can be discovered with a little effort.

There RPMs should be cleaned off the website.

In combination with https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1097872 this is a particularly hazardous situation, since there is no link to a valid RPM in the Quick Start guide, therefore people will go hunting and possibly find a bad one.

ovirt-release rpms should have been removed from the repositories and wiki pages should have been updated last week.
