Public bug reported: I am requesting a mongodb-server-core package that provides only mongodb-server-binaries, with no user or services management. The package should remain in universe, and be supported accordingly.
Rationale: Juju is migrating to mongodb 3.4 for bionic, and would like to phase out the usage of juju-mongodb packages. The proposed mongodb-server-core package will meet juju's needs, as well as potentially other users needs within the archive who may have utilized juju-mongodb for it's similar properties. Lifespan: Juju is actively working to migrate to a more tightly coupled distribution for mongodb (as with juju agents, simplestreams) that would better serve the fast paced nature of the project. Therefore the juju team anticipates no longer depending on this package post-bionic. Logs: There is no upstream changelog, as the version hasn't changed. https://launchpadlibrarian.net/357300754/buildlog_ubuntu-bionic- amd64.mongodb_1%3A3.4.7-1ubuntu3~ppa2_BUILDING.txt.gz Package: The proposed package has already been built thanks to Robie Basak, and can be seen in his ppa: ppa:racb/experimental. Robie has also graciously volunteered to upload this package to fufill this FFe. Testing: The juju team has done initial validation to ensure this meets our needs. This included running our test suite utilizing the packaged mongodb from Robie's ppa. ** Affects: mongodb (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1756432 Title: [FFe] Split out mongodb-server-core To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mongodb/+bug/1756432/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
