I'd actually like to have a grace period of like 30-60 days where we provide life support for the previous release so that we're not "forcing" the issue as much. >@jberkus > I'm happy to let that issue be a technical decision; I think our users would > be OK either way. > EXCEPT, if you go for "automated add remote + rebase", then we need to solve > the issue that you can't roll back from that reliably. Mind you, that's > something that we need to solve anyway. rolling back would work, but you're "remote" would be wrong. I think this is what you're referring to. > @jbrooks > I'm +1 to combining the ostree repos into one. There's nothing strange about > this, it's how the other atomic hosts operate. Fedora is the outlier in > requiring rebases between version upgrades. We could do it, but I'd prefer not to. If there are clean points to "prevent migrations" I'd prefer to just do that. One thing we could do is seed a new ostree repo with the latest N-1 content and then start building from there, but it's still more work than just creating a new repo from scratch. >@jbrooks > It'll also be much nicer for vagrant -- try vagrant init > fedora/24-atomic-host -- it doesn't work any more.

This discussion doesn't affect vagrant at all. The reason vagrant init fedora/24-atomic-host doesn't work any more is because we "clean up" old two week release disk images. I personally would like to keep them around, but i've been met with resistance on that and don't have good enough reasons for doing so. `` To reply, visit the link below or just reply to this email https://pagure.io/atomic-wg/issue/231 _______________________________________________ cloud mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected]
