Plucky Puffin (25.04) Release Status Tracking

Wednesday April 16th Update

What happened last night ?

  • @utkarsh re-spin images after zsync migrated (lubuntu and budgie)
  • Until midnight server images were still being built because RISC-V is slow. it took about 6 hours for RISC-V to complete. Images are now complete.
  • A potential bug was brought up in cinamon flavor with casper but we decided it was a really cosmetic issue and should not warrant re-spinning all images.
  • calamares upload was accepted at 4am. There’s still something wrong about it in the proposed pocket but this should be unblocked soon.
  • @paelzer this morning looking into something Bug #2107402 “lsblk on IBM z Systems blocked by apparmor in 25.0...” : Bugs : util-linux package : Ubuntu
    • This problem breaks things on s390x but doesn’t impact installer environment which explains why we didn’t catch it earlier. apparmor profile are not installed in enforced mode in the installer environment.
    • Issue is easily worked around and has been release noted
    • It further shown related issues that will also be SRU fixed
    • Decision is to fix this problem as a SRU, release note it
    • We will also look deeper with @dbungert in to why apparmor profiles are not enforced in the installer environment
  • Release is progressing as planned with more testing until publishing can start.

End Of Day Update

  • libvirt → SRU + release note known issue (done)
  • apparmor kills s390x → SRU + release note known issue (done)
  • Riscv preinstalled not working → false positive, documented
  • respin for due to calamaris landing, triggered for kubuntu, lubuntu, unity
  • Demo of the web part expected in ~0 minutes (in staging)
  • Automated testing on images we already have is green
  • Manual tests come in being submitted
  • Tracked Desktop, about to ready but waiting for a crashdump test
  • Started “Questing Quokka” opening
  • Raspberry Pi testing with @r41k0u and @waveform Thanks!
    • Startup sound missing ? - not a blocker (@jibel : actually was removed intentionally)
  • ISO tracker getting load issues, @hyask to investigate with IS
  • Verified: In response to the keystore question on upgrade - the keystore is fine, do-release-upgrade to plucky continues to do zfs encrypted.
  • However, during release upgrade, LP: #2107408 was encountered. Subiquity may need to take a lesson here about mount order from Ubiquity (x-systemd.after= also works). Will need fixed in Subiquity, and a fix for existing systems somewhere else (grub2 postinst until 26.10?)

ISO Testing Status

  • Desktop arm64 - @tobhe
  • Desktop Raspberry PI
    • do a few more, but by the tests done already confidence is fine and will not stop it.
  • Sever Subiquity Arm64 largemem
    • While this was tested during the Beta, We need to identify resoure to do this again, Looking into possible cloud instance
  • s390x/ppc testing mostly done and rest ongoing
