  • Describe the issue
    While working on the ELN bootstrapping, we may need to bump the ELN %{dist} value to avoid reusing ENVRs. Rather than burden releng with repeated requests, I'd like to be granted the edit-tag permission in Koji to make these minor modifications myself. I will not use this permission for any other purpose without consulting a releng member first.

  • When do you need this? (YYYY/MM/DD)
    (2020-06-12)

  • When is this no longer needed or useful? (YYYY/MM/DD)
    Unclear; at least until we get a complete ELN compose with installer.

  • If we cannot complete your request, what is the impact?
    I will continue to pester @mboddu whenever I need this value updated.

wouldn't it be easier to just update fedora-release package that defines %dist?

wouldn't it be easier to just update fedora-release package that defines %dist?

The fedora-release package doesn't define %{dist} for ELN. It is overridden by the tag. This is necessary so that we don't have to implement a whole new system-release setup for ELN, particularly since that would make it conflict with fedora-release and ELN would cease to be an add-on repo and become a complete distro, which we do not want.

 
$ koji grant-permission tag sgallagh

Done.
