Hi,
I just noticed we have couple of different places for the same kind of content (packages):
/pub/ - includes new releases and snapshots repos
This is the official place for oVirt releases and what any user should use. The official repositories
/repos/ovirt/{experimental,tested}/ - experimental seems pretty close to snapshots
Experimental - internal repo for CI, no one should use it. Tested - official verified repos with packages that passed OST, we recommend anyone to use that repo if he wants latest and greatest packages and can't wait to an official release
If it's now official, please move it to /pub. /repos is not meant to be used for official public content. /repos was meant to host internal, development, temporary, backup repos.
Snapshots - from next week, ovirt-snapshot-master will be a nightly snapshot of tested repo, this is ideal for QE or anyone who wants to test oVirt, but can't have the repo refreshed all the time.
/releases - old releases
We don't maintain this, probably kept for history purposes
The /repos prefix by itself is incredibly messy, there are bunch of private directories and ovirt among them.
Please open a ticket on jira.ovirt.org with details and we'll look into it, but I don't think that each directory on a release server should matter. There is official documentation for oVirt users and release rpms which provides you with exactly which repos you should use.
We do need to add documentation on what each repo means and its usage, can you please open a ticket on it so we won't forget?
Can you please unify the structure so it is easier to navigate? We should at least have one top level dir for all official public
content.
Something like
/ovirt/{releases,experimental,tested}/<version>/<arch>
and
/ovirt/yum-repos/release.rpm
would work well enough I think.
Thanks
