Alternatives to automatically move bugs to MODIFIED
by Yedidyah Bar David
Hi all,
We currently have a bot that automatically moves bugs from POST to MODIFIED
if all linked patches on gerrit are merged.
It happened to me personally several times that this was a wrong thing to do,
either because a new patch was still needed but not pushed yet, or because
an existing patch should have been back-ported to another branch and wasn't
yet. Since I usually pay more attention to my bug in POST, I sometimes missed
this and handled the missing patches (backports, usually) later than I could
if left on POST.
I have a feeling I am not the only one. So I suggest to stop doing this.
I can think of several alternatives:
1. Do nothing. I think that's reasonable - I think most people pay more
attention to POST bugs anyway.
2. Set needinfo on bug owner.
3. Send some alert email to relevant people (bug owner, existing patches owners,
perhaps others - e.g. reviewers of existing patches, perhaps those
that actually reviewed, etc.). Need to think how to make it not too
annoying for others but
still effective also if owner is on long PTO or something like that. New flag
doesn't have to be very specific - can be called something like 'attention
needed' or something like that.
4. Add a new flag for that and set it. This will allow easier
filtering/reporting.
What do you think?

possible bug in libgovirt or oVirt 4.0.2
by i iordanov
Hello,
I just tested oVirt 4.0.2 with Opaque, and when I try to make the
following call:
ovirt_vm_start(vm, proxy, &error);
I get an error->message: "Could not find 'state' node".
Further on, when I attempt to make a call to:
ovirt_vm_get_ticket(vm, proxy, &error)
I get the same error message "Could not find 'state' node".
Indeed, on oVirt 4.0.2, when I browse to:
https://livecd.localdomain/ovirt-engine/api/vms/VM_ID_HERE
I see no "state" node, only "<status>up</status>"
On the other hand, when I browse to the same part of the API on oVirt
3.4, I see:
"<status><state>up</state></status>"
Seems to me the API changed but the libgovirt, the client C library did not.
I hope you can correct this soon, and thanks in advance!
Cheers,
iordan

broken master: removal of release in spec requirements
by Yaniv Bronheim
Hi,
In https://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/62672 we removed the release from vdsm*
requirements. Although it sounds reasonable and quite safe, it was not.
In development env it causes mixup of versions when upgrading.
"yum install vdsm" will eventually cause this mixup as vdsm won't require
the newer vdsm-python
I think this change should be reverted and the solution should be in the
build process. Newer release is equal to higher version, requirement should
include the release number.
so for example, 4.18.7-1 was shipped and for ppc we built 4.18.7-2 so
4.18.7-2 is newer. can't see how this can be different.
e.g for the bug:
===================================================================================================================================================================================================================
Package Arch
Version
Repository Size
===================================================================================================================================================================================================================
Removing:
vdsm x86_64

It just introduces more complexity that might result in more bugs, but

Cc'd ovirt-devel, even though I don't think they use it (or at least not
