Troubleshooting and Resolution

Common Actions

Adding a new Pseudo User as a package owner

Sometimes you want to have a mailing list own a package so that bugzilla email is assigned to the mailing list. Doing this requires adding a new pseudo user to the account system and assigning that person as the package maintainer.

In the following examples, replace ("xen", "kernel-xen-2.6") with the packages you are assigning to the new user and 9902 to the userid you select in step 2
  • Log into db2.
  • Log into the db as a user that can make changes
$ psql -U postgres fas2
fas2>
  • Find the current pseudo-users
fas2>  select id, username from people where id < 10000 order by id;
id  |     username
------+------------------
9900 | orphan
9901 | anaconda-maint
  • Create a new account with the next available id after 9900
fas2> insert into people (id, username, human_name, password, email) 
values (9902, 'xen-maint', 'Xen Maintainers', '*', 'xen-maint@redhat.com');
  • Connect to the pkgdb as a user that can make changes
$ psql -U pkgdbadmin -h db2 pkgdb
pkgdb>
  • Add the current package owner as a comaintainer of the package. If this user is not currently on he acls for the package you can use the following database queries:
insert into personpackagelisting (username, packagelistingid)
select pl.owner, pl.id from packagelisting as pl, package as p
where p.id = pl.packageid and p.name in ('xen', 'kernel-xen-2.6');
insert into personpackagelistingacl (personpackagelistingid, acl, statuscode)
select ppl.id, 'build', 3 from personpackagelisting as ppl, packagelisting as pl, package as p
where p.id = pl.packageid and pl.id = ppl.packagelistingid and pl.owner = ppl.username
and p.name in ('xen', 'kernel-xen-2.6');
insert into personpackagelistingacl (personpackagelistingid, acl, statuscode)
select ppl.id, 'commit', 3 from personpackagelisting as ppl, packagelisting as pl, package as p
where p.id = pl.packageid and pl.id = ppl.packagelistingid
and pl.owner = ppl.username
and p.name in ('xen', 'kernel-xen-2.6');
insert into personpackagelistingacl (personpackagelistingid, acl, statuscode)
select ppl.id, 'approveacls', 3 from personpackagelisting as ppl, packagelisting as pl, package as p
where p.id = pl.packageid and pl.id = ppl.packagelistingid
and pl.owner = ppl.username
and p.name in ('xen', 'kernel-xen-2.6');

If the owner is in the acls, you will need to figure out which packages already acls and only add the new acls for that one.

  • Reassign the pseudo-user to be the new owner
update packagelisting set owner = 'xen-maint' from package as p
where packagelisting.packageid = p.id and p.name in ('xen', 'kernel-xen-2.6');

Renaming a package

On db2:

sudo -u postgres psql pkgdb
select * from package where name = 'OLDNAME';
[Make sure only the package you want is selected]
update package set name = 'NEWNAME' where name = 'OLDNAME';

On cvs-int:

CVSROOT=/cvs/pkgs cvs co CVSROOT
sed -i 's/OLDNAME/NEWNAME/g' CVSROOT/modules
cvs commit -m 'Rename OLDNAME => NEWNAME'
cd /cvs/pkgs/rpms
mv OLDNAME NEWNAME
cd NEWNAME
find . -name 'Makefile,v' -exec sed -i 's/NAME := OLDNAME/NAME := NEWNAME/' \{\} \;
cd ../../devel
rm OLDNAME
ln -s ../rpms/NEWNAME/devel .

If the package has existed long enough to have been added to koji, run something like the following to "retire" the old name in koji.

koji block-pkg dist-f12 OLDNAME

Removing a package

Do not remove a package if it has been built for a fedora release or if you are not also willing to remove the cvs directory.

When a package has been added due to a typo, it can be removed in one of two ways: marking it as a mistake with the "removed" status or deleting it from the db entirely. Marking it as removed is easier and is explained below.

On db2:

sudo -u postgres psql pkgdb
pkgdb=# select id, name, summary, statuscode from package where name = 'b';
  id  | name |                     summary                      | statuscode
------+------+--------------------------------------------------+-----------
 6618 | b    | A simple database interface to MS-SQL for Python |          3
(rows 1)

-- Make sure there is only one package returned and it is the correct one.
-- Statuscode 3 is "approved" and it's what we're changing from
-- You'll also need the id for later

pkgdb=# BEGIN;
pkgdb=# update package set statuscode = 17 where name = 'b';
UPDATE 1
-- Make sure only a single package was changed.
pkgdb=# COMMIT;

pkgdb=# select id, packageid, collectionid, owner, statuscode from packagelisting where packageid = 6618;
  id   | packageid | collectionid | owner  | statuscode
-------+-----------+--------------+--------+-----------
 42552 |      6618 |           19 | 101437 |          3
 38845 |      6618 |           15 | 101437 |          3
 38846 |      6618 |           14 | 101437 |          3
 38844 |      6618 |            8 | 101437 |          3
(rows 4)

-- Make sure the output here looks correct (packageid is all the same, etc).
-- You'll also need the ids for later

pkgdb=# BEGIN;
pkgdb=# update packagelisting set statuscode = 17  where packageid = 6618;
UPDATE 4
-- Make sure the same number of rows were committed as you saw before.
pkgdb=# COMMIT;

pkgdb=# select * from personpackagelisting where packagelistingid in (38844, 38846, 38845, 42552);
 id | userid | packagelistingid.
 ----+--------+------------------
 (0 rows)

-- In this case there are no comaintainers so we don't have to do anymore.  If
-- there were we'd have to treat them like groups handled next:

pkgdb=# select * from grouppackagelisting where packagelistingid in (38844, 38846, 38845, 42552);
  id   | groupid | packagelistingid.
-------+---------+------------------
 39229 |  100300 |            38844
 39230 |  107427 |            38844
 39231 |  100300 |            38845
 39232 |  107427 |            38845
 39233 |  100300 |            38846
 39234 |  107427 |            38846
 84481 |  107427 |            42552
 84482 |  100300 |            42552
(8 rows)

pkgdb=# select * from grouppackagelistingacl where grouppackagelistingid in (39229, 39230, 39231, 39232, 39233, 39234, 84481, 84482);
-- The results of this are usually pretty long. so I've omitted everything but the rows
(24 rows)
-- For groups it's typically 3 (one for each of commit, build, and checkout) *
-- number of grouppackagelistings.  In this case, that's 24 so this matches our expectations.
pkgdb=# BEGIN;
pkgdb=# update grouppackagelistingacl set statuscode = 13 where grouppackagelistingid in (39229, 39230, 39231, 39232, 39233, 39234, 84481, 84482);
-- Make sure only the number of rows you saw before were updated
pkgdb=# COMMIT;

If the package has existed long enough to have been added to koji, run something like the following to "retire" it in koji.

koji block-pkg dist-f12 PKGNAME


Add a new release

To add a new Fedora Release, ssh to db02 and do this:

sudo -u postgres psql pkgdb
-- This adds the release for Package ACLs
insert into collection (name, version, statuscode, owner, koji_name) values('Fedora', '13', 1, 'jkeating', 'dist-f13');
insert into branch select id, 'f13', '.fc13', Null, 'f13' from collection where name = 'Fedora' and version = '13';
-- If this is for mass branching we probably need to advance the branch information for devel as well.
update branch set disttag = '.fc14' where collectionid = 8;

-- This adds the new release's repos for the App DB
insert into repos (shortname, name, url, mirror, active, collectionid) select  'F-13-i386', 'Fedora 13 - i386', 'development/13/i386/os', 'http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/', true, c.id  from collection as c where c.name = 'Fedora' and c.version = '13';
insert into repos (shortname, name, url, mirror, active, collectionid) select  'F-13-i386-d', 'Fedora 13 - i386 - Debug', 'development/13/i386/debug', 'http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/', true, c.id  from collection as c where c.name = 'Fedora' and c.version = '13';
insert into repos (shortname, name, url, mirror, active, collectionid) select  'F-13-i386-tu', 'Fedora 13 - i386 - Test Updates', 'updates/testing/13/i386/', 'http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/', true, c.id  from collection as c where c.name = 'Fedora' and c.version = '13';
insert into repos (shortname, name, url, mirror, active, collectionid) select  'F-13-i386-tud', 'Fedora 13 - i386 - Test Updates Debug', 'updates/testing/13/i386/debug/', 'http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/', true, c.id  from collection as c where c.name = 'Fedora' and c.version = '13';

insert into repos (shortname, name, url, mirror, active, collectionid) select  'F-13-x86_64', 'Fedora 13 - x86_64', 'development/13/x86_64/os', 'http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/', true, c.id  from collection as c where c.name = 'Fedora' and c.version = '13';
insert into repos (shortname, name, url, mirror, active, collectionid) select  'F-13-x86_64-d', 'Fedora 13 - x86_64 - Debug', 'development/13/x86_64/debug', 'http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/', true, c.id  from collection as c where c.name = 'Fedora' and c.version = '13';
insert into repos (shortname, name, url, mirror, active, collectionid) select  'F-13-x86_64-tu', 'Fedora 13 - x86_64 - Test Updates', 'updates/testing/13/x86_64/', 'http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/', true, c.id  from collection as c where c.name = 'Fedora' and c.version = '13';
insert into repos (shortname, name, url, mirror, active, collectionid) select  'F-13-x86_64-tud', 'Fedora 13 - x86_64 - Test Updates Debug', 'updates/testing/13/x86_64/debug/', 'http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/', true, c.id  from collection as c where c.name = 'Fedora' and c.version = '13';

Update App DB for a release going final

When a Fedora release goes final, the repositories for it change where they live. The repo definitions allow the App browser to sync information from the yum repositories. The PackageDB needs to be updated for the new areas:

BEGIN;
insert into repos (shortname, name, url, mirror, active, collectionid) select  'F-14-i386-u', 'Fedora 14 - i386 - Updates', 'updates/14/i386/', 'http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/', true, c.id  from collection as c where c.name = 'Fedora' and c.version = '14';
insert into repos (shortname, name, url, mirror, active, collectionid) select  'F-14-i386-ud', 'Fedora 14 - i386 - Updates Debug', 'updates/14/i386/debug/', 'http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/', true, c.id  from collection as c where c.name = 'Fedora' and c.version = '14';
update repos set url='releases/14/Everything/i386/os/' where shortname = 'F-14-i386';
update repos set url='releases/14/Everything/i386/debug/' where shortname = 'F-14-i386-d';

insert into repos (shortname, name, url, mirror, active, collectionid) select  'F-14-x86_64-u', 'Fedora 14 - x86_64 - Updates', 'updates/14/x86_64/', 'http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/', true, c.id  from collection as c where c.name = 'Fedora' and c.version = '14';
insert into repos (shortname, name, url, mirror, active, collectionid) select  'F-14-x86_64-ud', 'Fedora 14 - x86_64 - Updates Debug', 'updates/14/x86_64/debug/', 'http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/', true, c.id  from collection as c where c.name = 'Fedora' and c.version = '14';
update repos set url='releases/14/Everything/x86_64/os/' where shortname = 'F-14-x86_64';
update repos set url='releases/14/Everything/x86_64/debug/' where shortname = 'F-14-x86_64-d';
COMMIT;

Orphaning all the packages for a user

This can be done in the database if you don't want to send email:

$ ssh db02
$ sudo -u postgres psql pkgdb
pkgdb> select * from packagelisting where owner = 'xulchris';
pkgdb> -- Check that the list doesn't look suspicious.... There should be a  record for every fedora release * package
pkgdb> BEGIN;
pkgdb> update packagelisting set owner = 'orphan', statuscode = 14 where owner = 'xulchris';
pkgdb> -- If the right number of rows were changed
pkgdb> COMMIT;

Note that if you do it via pkgdb-client or the python-fedora API instead, you'll want to only orphan the packages on non-EOL branches that exist to cut down on the amount of email that's sent. That entails figuring out what branches you need to do this on.
