Bug ID: 298792
Summary: BASIC-CI images force base package upgrades, requiring
undesired reboot
Product: Base System
Version: 15.1-RELEASE
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Some People
Priority: ---
Component: misc
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
In 73ec43ab702fb06bf870af161919ad9423cddd19 firstboot_pkg_upgrade was added:
--- release/tools/basic-cloudinit.conf
...
vm_extra_pre_umount() {
+ # Limit firstboot_pkg_upgrade to the base system.
+ firstboot_pkg_upgrade_repos="FreeBSD-base"
This has the undesirable effect of, after the first base system package
patch release, of triggering a lot of downloads of possibly unwanted
packages, and also an unwanted reboot.
Users report that they just need to install a few ports dependencies,
and run their CI scripts, in an ephemeral VM BASIC-CI.
Not clear what to do about this yet, ideally we could toggle this
behaviour externally from cloudinit/nuageinit parameters.
Do we want to skip this upgrade solely for BASIC-CI images? or
is the toggle a better way to accommodate this?
