[Podman] post-mortem: podman v3.2.0-rc1 in fedora stable updates

Hi list, First off, my apologies to all users for shipping a bad podman update in the yum repos. What Happened ------------- Few days ago, podman v3.2.0-rc1 mistakenly got pushed to the stable updates repositories on Fedora 33 and 34. Why It Happened --------------- The packaging automation for container tools regularly tries to push any bodhi updates in testing state to stable. While I had already disabled autokarma for any bodhi update containing an RC build, I forgot to disallow `request push to stable` for any bodhi containing an RC build via the automation. Also, there were no gating test failures for said bodhi updates so the stable pushes completed without complaints. Current Resolution ------------------ Since a stable podman v3.2.0 is still quite a few days away, I have reverted podman rpm to v3.1.2 with an Epoch bump 2 -> 3. Bodhi updates for those can be found here: Fedora 33: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2021-0ce79fff2a Fedora 34: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2021-51708c90bc Future Steps ------------ I have added a check in the packaging automation to block any RC builds from being pushed to stable, so this issue should never occur again. If anybody is interested, the automation script can be found here: https://gitlab.com/rhcontainerbot/pkg-builder/-/tree/fedora Next month, I plan to work on moving the packaging automation into Podman upstream with Packit integration (https://packit.dev/) which should provide further improvements in quality control. Thanks and apologies once again. -- Lokesh IRC, GitHub: lsm5 GPG: 0xC7C3A0DD https://keybase.io/lsm5
