# 2022-06-22 repod meeting Date: 2022-06-22T17:00:00Z - 18:21:00Z Location: Jitsi Scribe: Brett (ainola/brett) ## Attendees * artafinde * brett (ainola) * dvzrv (David) * heftig (Jan) * oaken-source (Andreas, from Parabola GNU/Linux-libre) ## Agenda ### Contacting Arch derivatives for collaboration on repod Derivatives that host their own package repository: - [ ] ArchBang - [X] [Artix Linux](https://wiki.artixlinux.org/Main/Repositories#Stable) - [X] [Arch Linux 32](https://archlinux32.org/packages/) - [X] [Arch Strike](https://archstrike.org/wiki/repositories) - [X] [ArchLabs](https://bitbucket.org/archlabslinux/archlabs_repo/src/master/x86_64/) - [X] [BlackArch](https://www.blackarch.org/downloads.html#install-repo) - [ ] [ChimeraOS](https://chimeraos.org/faq#is-chimeraos-arch) - [ ] EndeavourOS ([They just use Arch packages](https://endeavouros-team.github.io/EndeavourOS-Development/)) - [X] Frugalware Linux ([example package](https://www.frugalware.org/packages/3269)) - [X] [Garuda Linux](https://gitlab.com/garuda-linux/packages) - [X] [Hyperbola GNU/Linux-libre](https://www.hyperbola.info/packages/) - [X] [InstantOS](https://instantos.io/faq#does-it-use-its-own-repos) - [X] [KaOS](https://kaosx.us/about/based/) - [X] [LinHES](http://linhes.org/projects/linhes/wiki/Build_a_LinHES_Package) - [X] Manjaro - [X] [Parabola GNU/Linux-libre](https://www.parabola.nu/packages/?sort=&repo=Libre) - oaken-source: Currently building all packages by hand, releasing is all manual. For a small team, it's been usable. Currently in need of more architectures and is making it more painful. Hopefully repod can make this work better. Keeping up-to-date is not something they can do feasibly at the moment. - Most packages come from Arch but they do build a good number of packages themselves. - [X] [SteamOS](https://steamdeck-packages.steamos.cloud/archlinux-mirror/) Distributions that host their own packages tend to have a small repository that they host alongside the main Arch repositories (Arch Linux ARM/Arch Linux 32 seems to be the only exception since they build the entire repo for specific architecture). Brett will reach out to each of the marked distributions. ### Milestones [0.1.0 milestone in progress](https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/repod/-/milestones/6#tab-issues), which includes the work thus far, such as: * Package file parsing * JSON-based management/parsing tools * [Web-based documentation](https://repod.readthedocs.io/) In the near-term, we need to solve [#67](https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/repod/-/issues/67) and get routine tests running against new versions of all Poetry dependencies. ### Parabola GNU/Linux-libre representation oaken-source saw the previous meeting minutes and thought to join. Parabola is in need of fixing up their build pipelines but that's not in the scope of repod currently (Arch's priorities are repod first, build pipelines after) Parabola uses dbscripts to manage their repositories and have even diverged a little from upstream. Parabola and Arch have potential duplicated efforts: [parabola-repolint](https://github.com/oaken-source/parabola-repolint) (also in Python) may have some overlap with current efforts and may provide some opportunity for collaboration.
