I'm working on a lockfile updater[1], and I'd like it to just be able to
do
cosa fetch --update-lockfile
the same way a human would. Thisnormally would run
rpm-ostree compose tree
without passing anylockfiles and blocking out the pool so that all packages come from the
base repo.
Sadly, that doesn't currently work for FCOS right now because we have an
override for crypto-policies from f32 so that we don't pull in Python.
And because we also have an
exclude-packages
for Python, without thef32 crypto-policies, we can't get a depsolve from just the base f31
repos. (This is the same issue that killed bodhi-updates[2].)
As a short-term hack, just include the overrides for now. This dillutes
the meaning of a "base" lockfile of course, because it will now include
the packages from the overrides. I don't think this really matters for
now though (it does make the checking for whether overrides are still
needed harder, but I'd like to automate dropping overrides eventually
too).
Anyway, we can drop this hack once we move to f32, though I have some
ideas too on how to solve this more correctly.
