#39 Add "Fails to build from source, Fails to install" event to the schedule
Closed: Fixed by bcotton. Opened by churchyard.

https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fesco/Fails_to_build_from_source_Fails_to_install/

lists:

  • Cca six weeks before the Fedora N mass branching, packages that weren’t successfully rebuilt at least in Fedora N-2 are collected and weekly reminders are sent to affected maintainers and the Fedora devel mailing list.
  • Cca a week before the Fedora N mass branching, packages that weren’t successfully rebuilt at least in Fedora N-2 will be retired assuming there have been at least 5 warnings on the devel mailing list.
  • A week before the scheduled beta freeze, any packages which have open FTI bugs in the NEW state for at least 8 weeks with at least 2 reminder comments will be retired from the relevant release and rawhide (in addition to being orphaned).
  • The previous point repeats for the final freeze.

Could those events please be added to the schedule? Except the first one, I'd like to see them in the key-tasks schedule.

Thanks, @churchyard, these are great additions. I won't make promises about the key tasks part yet, as I'll need to see how big that ends up being (there are probably some things I could drop from that, too).

Whether or not they end up on key tasks, I'm thinking about adding a new tab specifically for packaging. I'm not sure it makes sense to separate that from the devel tab, but if so, these will definitely go on there. I'll also tag these for releng.

Commit 71e420e7 fixes this issue
