We have a long-standing but hopefully soon-to-be-resolved request for an image index file. Sounds like this is another ideal use case. Can you please add a comment to https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/5805?

I've known of that ticket for a while. I've even opened the equivalent ticket in CentOS: https://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=10730 https://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/2016-April/158788.html Unfortunately I don't seem to be permitted to comment on it (Either that or I'm too stupid to find the "comment" button, which is computationally equivalent ;). Both tickets did not receive response for a long long time so we (oVirt infra) eventually "took thinks into our own hands" in oVirt and made scripts that could deal with whatever is out there (Most D/L servers have _some_ kind of file index). We even have plans to solve this issue for everyone by making a virt-builder index file for our public Glance server: https://ovirt-jira.atlassian.net/browse/OVIRT-819 But as the Atomic project is not currently maintaining anything that could be interpreted as an image archive, we cannot work with it. It is a shame because it used to work fine up until a few months ago. -- Barak Korren bkorren@redhat.com RHCE, RHCi, RHV-DevOps Team https://ifireball.wordpress.com/
