RPM
- Memory improvements to be merged released imminently (finally)
  - Combined with some pulpcore improvements that Brian worked on, the biggest syncs stay under 0.9 gb of memory consumption, down from ~3.5 at the release of Sat 6.10

Katello

https://github.com/pulp/pulp_rpm/issues/2456 (Add profile information to modulemd endpoint) BZ: 2063999 – No profiles are shown for any module streams
Discuss upgrading to Pulpcore 3.17 in Satellite
- RHUI is going GA with 3.17 - less packaging work, less backporting work, more testing if we consolidate
- 3.16 is from October, will be 8 months old on release day. RHUI will GA with a newer version.

  - Been around for a while, no external reports yet
  - fix/cleanup script incoming

OSTree
Pulp CLI
django-CVEs for “old” versions of Pulp (core/3.7)
- Support-timelines for downstream are being extended
- core/3.7 currently requires 2.2.16(17?)
- What would it take for katello to upgrade to latest 2.2-LTS release (2.2.28?)
  - pulpcore/3.7 impact is noon-trivial
- Is this “worth doing” at this point, given that 2.2 is already at EOL (as of April)
- There will be a discussion/decision conversation happening #soon

Katello

Katello will likely stick with 3.18 for Katello 4.5
- Retaining el7 support, packaging resource constraints are the bottleneck
Reminder: If/when are publications/distributions destroyed in Pulp?
- Publication-metadata isn’t (supposed to be) affected by orphan-cleanup
- Removing the repo-version that a pub is associated with, removes the publication

Regarding some questions from before:
- LibDNF 5 future planning: Katello developers should be the first to talk with the LibDNF team, not managers or PMs. Ian is happy to do this and invites any others as well :-).
- SLES repo issue: this isn’t a big deal for Satellite/Katello because SLES isn’t specifically supported any more.
- Pulpcore 3.18 LTS: we should be all set from a Satellite and Katello standpoint. No further discussion with managers / PMs should be necessary

Display total size of a yum\docker\iso\file\custom repository in Satellite GUI after syncing them - https://issues.redhat.com/browse/SAT-2512
Processing metadata task should fail with an appropriate error message, whenever a task is stuck due to insufficient file system space. - https://issues.redhat.com/browse/SAT-2354
Can Pulp be configured to log outgoing requests for content downloads, for example, RPMs or metadata files? We’re trying to figure out how to verify that Alternate Content Sources are working.
- No code currently, could possibly be added and backported
- Alternatively: a man-in-the-middle proxy or firewall could be configured to log where requests are going
Should Katello use Pulpcore 3.20 or wait for 3.21?
- Katello 4.7 stabilizes in ~ 3 months (November-ish). We estimate we need 1 month to upgrade Pulp versions (generous estimate). The delivery team needs about 2 weeks.
- We can wait for Pulpcore 3.21, it should release around September
ACS issue: https://github.com/pulp/pulp_rpm/issues/2667
- Figured it out, details are on the issue.

Quick chat on 1993917 – Syncing repositories with https proxy set ends with warning Katello::Errors::Pulp3 Error Only http proxies are supported
- 2 cacerts are needed when talking to CDN via https proxy, one for proxy and one for cdn
  - The proxy cert is typically in the systems default CA trust store
  - Sounds like pulp2 requests library trusted it in 6.9 but pulp3 doesn’t seem to want to load it from the trust store and instead wants to be explicit on ca certificates to use.
  - If we have to stay explicit then it’ll be a lot of work from a katello perspective.
  - Let’s see if we can come up with approaches.
  - Paji doing a POC on the pulp-side, will report on progress

Overview

Katello Schedule

Pulp

Pulpcore
- Query of all changes from last week
- core/3.21 release still scheduled for 8-SEP
RPM
- Need to release 3.18 in the 1.5 weeks (hopefully for real this time)
- Should include the modulemd profile & description data 2109634 – Add module profile information to modulemd enpoints
  - Snafu: it looks like pulp_rpm 3.18 claims to require pulpcore 3.19, that is a problem if we want this fix to go into Satellite-next, which is where the BZ is currently pointing
    - 3.19 is a very small release with no breaking changes and only 6 small quality of life features, is a bump theoretically still possible?
      - https://github.com/pulp/pulpcore/blob/3.19/CHANGES.rst#rest-api-1
      - If not, we need to investigate if there is something we can do to make pulp_rpm 3.18 compatible
      - [Ian] I would argue that that bug is not important enough to bump y-versions of Pulpcore. It isn’t a breaking issue, just missing information from the UI. Even updating the y-version of pulp_rpm is a bit much. To help decide, we’d need to see a changelog diff for either upgrade.
  - Will try to prioritize https://github.com/pulp/pulp_rpm/issues/2643 and https://github.com/pulp/pulp_rpm/issues/2735
