Release notes¶
v8.2.0¶
Released on 2024-10-26. This is a feature release that needs configuration file adjustments. See the following notes for the details.
Backwards incompatible changes¶
Bodhi’s update status checking has been overhauled, and some configuration options have changed.
critpath.num_admin_approvals is removed. This backed the old Fedora “proven testers” concept, which has not been used for some years.
critpath.min_karma is removed and is replaced by a new setting just called min_karma. This applies to all updates, not just critical path.
critpath.stable_after_days_without_negative_karma is renamed to critpath.mandatory_days_in_testing and its behavior has changed: there is no longer any check for ‘no negative karma’. Critical path updates, like non-critical path updates, can now be manually pushed stable after reaching this time threshold even if they have negative karma.
As before, these settings can be specified with prefixes to apply only to particular releases and milestones. min_karma and (critpath.)mandatory_days_in_testing now act strictly and consistently as minimum requirements for stable push. Any update may be pushed stable once it reaches either of those thresholds (and passes gating requirements, if gating is enabled). The update’s stable_karma value is no longer ever considered in determining whether it may be pushed stable. stable_karma and stable_days are only used as triggers for automatic stable pushes (but for an update to be automatically pushed it must also reach either min_karma or (critpath.)mandatory_days_in_testing).
The most obvious practical result of this change for Fedora is that, during phases where the policy minimum karma requirement is +2, you will no longer be able to make non-critical path updates pushable with +1 karma by setting this as their stable_karma value. Additionally:
It is no longer possible to set an update’s request to ‘stable’ if it has previously met requirements but currently does not
Two cases where updates that reached their unstable_karma thresholds were not obsoleted are resolved
Updates in ‘pending’ as well as ‘testing’ status have autopush disabled upon receiving any negative karma
The date_approved property of updates is more consistently set as the date the update first became eligible for stable push (PR#5630).
Features¶
When searching updates, you can now specify multiple gating statuses by passing the ‘gating’ query arg more than once (PR#5658).
Bundled fedora-bootstrap has been updated to 5.3.3-0 (PR#5711).
A packager can now edit a side-tag update even if the side-tag is not owned by them, provided they have commit rights on all packages included in the side-tag (PR#5764).
Bug fixes¶
The development.ini.example config - on which the BCD config is based - is now set up to listen on both IPv4 and IPv6 (PR#5659).
Openid based login support has been removed from Bodhi. python-openid and pyramid-fas-openid are EOL and we moved to OIDC authentication. (#5601).
Fixed a build validation issue which would prevent a sidetag update from being submitted in some circumstances (#5725).
Fixed broken pagination for listing updates in webUI and JSON (#5738).
Development improvements¶
Calls to datetime.datetime.utcnow() have been changed to datetime.datetime.now(datetime.timezone.utc). We previously assumed all datetimes were UTC based, now this is explicit by using timezone aware datetimes (PR#5702).
Documentation improvements¶
Bodhi’s documentation is now served from ReadTheDocs pages (PR#5774).

Released on 2023-12-09. This is a major release that introduces several breaking changes. Please read the details below and make sure to update any customized value in your config file.
Backwards incompatible changes¶
The ‘required testcases’ feature is removed, as it mostly just duplicated what we do with Greenwave, only worse. The SaveUpdate schema is modified (PR#5548).

Dependency changes¶
libcomps >= 0.20 is required to correctly validate repodata created with createrepo_c >= 1.0. Bodhi can now support all compression method available in createrepo_c (PR#5455).
Authentication and Authorization have been ported to Pyramid 2.0 Security Policies and session serializer has been switched from PickleSerializer to JSONSerializer. Bodhi will now require Pyramid > 2.0. (#5091).

v7.0.0¶
Released on 2022-11-26. This is a major release that fully enables frozen release state in bodhi-server and adds Kerberos authentication to bodhi-client.
Server upgrade instructions¶
This release contains database migrations. To apply them, run:
$ sudo -u apache /usr/bin/alembic -c /etc/bodhi/alembic.ini upgrade head
Features¶
Bodhi client now autenticates using Kerberos by default and falls back to browser-based OIDC mechanism. (PR#4602).
Critical path information can now be read from JSON files (in the form output by the releng critpath.py script), using config options critpath.type = json and critpath.jsonpath (PR#4755).
Frozen releases updates will now be forced into testing before being pushed to stable (PR#4831).
The new update form UI will now display a warning when a release is approaching EOL (PR#4834).
Bodhi-push now defaults to push only testing composes for frozen releases (#4478).
Bug fixes¶
Editing a stuck Rawhide side-tag update (usually when gating tests fail) will no more cause builds to be tagged with the release candidate-tag to prevent the automatic update consumer from creating an automatic update and breaking the side-tag update (PR#4745).
Bodhi client will not show the secret in terminal when logging in via browser (PR#4814).
The check_signed_builds sometimes failed to unstuck updates due to the use of a wrong tag (PR#4819).
Updateinfo.xml metadata generation has been changed in order to try to fix errors reported by yum on EPEL (#2487).
Releases in frozen state will now be listed in the release page and a warning box will be showed for updates of those releases (#4103).
The date_approved property of the Update model is now set when the update is ready to be pushed to stable (#4171).
Scenario is now included in request data when waiving test results (#4270).
The update page now shows a single combined gating status, instead of listing the result of each separate greenwave query (#4320).
Bodhi-client now raises a generic SysExit exception instead of click.exceptions.Abort when a user aborts authentication, so external scripts can avoid importing Click in their code (#4623).
Development improvements¶
Bodhi client now supports configuring OIDC storage path. (PR#4603).
For gating, Bodhi now queries all Greenwave ‘decision contexts’ together, reducing the number of queries needed. (PR#4821).
References to never used side_tag_active and side_tag_expired update statuses and the Update.side_tag_locked property have been removed (PR#4823).
The date_pushed database column of the Update model has been dropped and replaced by a property, no change should be noticeable to users (#4837).

Dependency changes¶
Features¶
Allow disabling autokarma, autotime and close-bugs when editing an update by CLI (PR#4564).
Bug fixes¶
Fix a small template issue about the karma thumbs display (PR#4562).
Autokarma, autotime and close-bugs automatisms may have been accidentally overridden when editing updates by CLI (#4563).

This is a major release that adds authentication with OpenID Connect.
Backwards incompatible changes¶
Support authentication with OpenID Connect, in addition to OpenID. The old OpenID authentication can be accessed by using
/login?method=openid
as the login URL. The bodhi client is switched to OIDC entirely, plain OpenID support has been dropped. Depending on the OIDC provider’s capabilities, users may have to run the bodhi client on a host that has a browser. This will not be the case in Fedora as OOB support has been recently added to Ipsilon. (#1180).
Dependency changes¶
Features¶
Bug fixes¶
Handle invalid characters in RSS export (PR#4513).
Fixed a style issue in the web UI where images posted in comments exceed box width (#4327).

Exclude the composes property when serializing the Release object to avoid recursion (#4447).
Adding or removing builds from a side-tag update by CLI causes the from_tag property to be removed (#4452).

Fixed a tagging problem when updating the builds list in a side-tag update (#4551).
