Hi Francesco,

It looks like we had an issue in our tooling, the build of futurist to 3.0.0 was not proposed automatically. On a fresh installation of

RDO Caracal/2024.1 it's working well with futurist 2.4.1 version, at least no failure was caught by our CI (i.e running different

deployment scenarios and tempest with puppet-openstack-integration and packstack).

Though, we don't test the upgrade path from previous releases, hence we might hit this kind of issue, and your feedback here is

valuable for the community.

Maybe the fact that it is a downgrade caused the issue? Also, shouldn't the CentOS repo ship the same version as RDO trunk?

Right, we should ship the same version of packages in both CentOS CloudSIG repo and RDO Trunk repo.

I'm going to update futurist to 3.0.0 right now and will ping you once it lands in repo.

Cheers,

Joel

Thank you,

it looks like somehow I just messed with DNF, as if I search the package showing duplicates and querying info about the specific versions, it shows that there are two alternatives:

python3-futurist-2.4.1-1 - installed from centos-openstack-bobcat

python3-futurist-2.3.0-3 - available from openstack-caracal

I tried to reinstall python3-futurist and it showed an error about the package not being available, then I explicitly used dnf install python3-futurist-2.3.0 and it was correctly detected and run as a downgrade.

Maybe the fact that it is a downgrade caused the issue? Also, shouldn't the CentOS repo ship the same version as RDO trunk?

As far as I can tell, futurist is still used by multiple projects so
it is required in Caracal.
its used by nova and we will be using it more going forward.
we have no current plans to remove our usage of futurist and are activly plannign to use it as part
of our strategy to reduce our use of eventlet.
I checked the RDO repo and its caracal contents contains the python3-futurist
package actually exists.

https://trunk.rdoproject.org/centos9-caracal/component/common/26/d9/26d95c182c479f5ab12386289420e1688b3c7986_63a94771/
python3-futurist-3.0.0-0.20240313181506.4e14db5.el9.noarch.rpm

However the SIG repo in centos provides a much older version. I suspect that
there might be some problems with sync process between RDO and CentOS.

https://mirror.stream.centos.org/SIGs/9-stream/cloud/x86_64/openstack-caracal/Packages/p/
python3-futurist-2.3.0-3.el9s.noarch.rpm

I'm adding rdo user mailing list, assuming people subscribing the list may have
better idea about potential causes.

Hi all,

I'm upgrading from Bobcat to Caracal using RDO repositories. I noticed that the package python3-futurist.noarch was
present in centos-openstack-bobcat repo, but it is not in openstack-caracal. So it is not possible to
update/reinstall/etc. it as it is "orphaned" once the bobcat repository is disabled. Should it be removed? Is it
still a dependency?
