Description of problem: The help text is not sufficient to understand how the tool works, at least for me. The text reads: $ waiverdb-cli -h Usage: waiverdb-cli [OPTIONS] Creates new waivers against test results. Examples: waiverdb-cli -r 123 -r 456 -p "fedora-26" -c "It's dead!" Options: -C, --config-file PATH Specify a config file to use -r, --result-id INTEGER Specify one or more results to be waived -p, --product-version TEXT Specify one of PDC's product version identifiers. --waived / --no-waived Whether or not the result is waived -c, --comment TEXT A comment explaining why the result is waived -h, --help Show this message and exit. If I look at an update in bodhi, how do I match the information provided about a failed test to what parameters to use for this command? From the example in the help text, the -p "fedora-26" part kind of gives a hint that if the failing test was for an update for Fedora 26, I should use -p "fedora-26", and similar for other Fedora releases. This gives only the -r option to identify for which test you want to register a waiver. But the bodhi page only shows a list of results, there is no "result id" mentioned there. The help text is not helpful. Can you provide some more information about how to use the tool? How do I find out from the information in bodhi what parameters to use? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): waiverdb-cli-0.4.0-1.fc27.noarch How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. run "waiverdb-cli -h" 2. Be confused
Agreed, it's not obvious. I added some instructions over here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Package_update_HOWTO#Handling_feedback_from_automated_tests I'm hoping we can get this merged soon, which will be a much nicer experience: https://github.com/fedora-infra/bodhi/pull/2095
This message is a reminder that Fedora 27 is nearing its end of life. On 2018-Nov-30 Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 27. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '27'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 27 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Fedora 27 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2018-11-30. Fedora 27 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
