[rdo-dev] Updating and retiring OpenStack packages from Fedora repositories

[Alfredo Moralejo Alonso]

Hi,

We have started working on synchronizing OpenStack clients from Stein
release into Fedora rawhide official repos. The goal is not only updating
it in fedora but also removing non required openstack packages on Fedora
and automating the process as much as possible.

An initial analysis of the packages that we can remove from Fedora shows
that following ones can be safely retired:

python-ceilometermiddleware
python-keystonemiddleware
python-os-win
python-oslo-vmware
python-oslo-sphinx
python-pycadf
python-oslo-cache
python-cursive
python-castellan
python-oslo-rootwrap
python-oslo-middleware
python-oslo-policy
python-oslo-reports
python-oslo-privsep
python-taskflow
python-automaton
python-microversion-parse
python-reno
python-osprofile
python-oslo-messaging
python-oslo-service
python-oslo-concurrency

I also have doubts about if we should maintain in Fedora:

diskimage-builder
python-hardware
python-gnocchiclient

Any opinion about it?

I'm documenting the work related to this in
https://review.rdoproject.org/etherpad/p/fedora-clients-sync

If you have questions or think that retiring these packages from Fedora
repos may cause any problem, please let me know on #rdo freenode channel or
using RDO mailing lists.

Best regards,

Alfredo
