repo version should be updated about docker-lineageos

[jfloff]

I just triggered the Docker container to rebuild. Give it 10minutes or so and test if the message is still there.

[oupala]

I updated the image, and the message is still there.

For information, the hash of the image I am using is cf6b995b758c.

It seems that the url where your Dockerfile is getting the repo binary is only proposing repo 1.13.7:

docker-lineageos/Dockerfile

Line 85 in 61ba7fe

curl https://storage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > /usr/bin/repo ;\

This is why a simple rebuild of the docker-lineageos image does not change the version of the repo binary.

The strange thing is that the repo repo is only offering version 1.13.7. See here:

https://gerrit.googlesource.com/git-repo/

So, my final question is: where is repo 1.26 available as said on the repo CLI:

$ ./repo --version

... A new repo command ( 1.26) is available.
... You should upgrade soon:

    cp /home/user/project/.repo/repo/repo /home/user/project/repo

repo version v1.13.7
       (from https://gerrit.googlesource.com/git-repo)
repo launcher version 1.25
       (from /home/user/project/repo)
       (currently at 1.13.7)
repo User-Agent git-repo/1.13.7 (Linux) git/2.20.1 Python/2.7.16
git 2.20.1
git User-Agent git/2.20.1 (Linux) git-repo/1.13.7
Python 2.7.16 (default, Oct  7 2019, 17:36:04)

Any clue?

Same here, I also looking for an answer

In fact, I think that there is a misunderstanding about repo.

repo is composed of 2 parts: repo and repo laucher.

• repo is available as version 1.13.x, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 2.4.x
• repo launcher is available as version 1.25, 1.26

But it seems that you're installing repo (and probably repo launcher) from the right source, (according to the documentation](https://gerrit.googlesource.com/git-repo/+/refs/heads/master/README.md#install).

I don't understand why the last version of repo is not installed. @jfloff Could you please try to trigger a new build of the docker image?

When I install repo today, I get an updated version of repo:

$ curl https://storage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > repo
$ python repo init
$ python repo version
repo version v2.4.1
       (from https://gerrit.googlesource.com/git-repo)
repo launcher version 2.4
       (from /home/user/repo)
       (currently at 2.4.1)
repo User-Agent git-repo/2.4.1 (Linux) git/2.20.1 Python/3.7.5

I made some extensive testing about this image.

The strange thing is that the repo version command ouputs some inconsistent informations:

lineageos@8ebd105cfa9d:~$ repo version
repo: warning: Python 2 is no longer supported; Please upgrade to Python 3.6+.
... A new version of repo (2.4) is available.

repo User-Agent git-repo/2.4.1 (Linux) git/2.11.0 Python/2.7.13

Either repo is in version 2.4 or 2.4.1 and it does not need to be updated. Either it needs to be updated but it is not in version 2.4 or 2.4.1.

Maybe the first thing would be to build this from from an image more recent than openjdk:8 so that we can benefit from python 3.6 or later (switching from stretch to buster, for example, while sticking to openjdk8).

[oupala]

I tried to change the FROM image of the Dockerfile from openjdk:8 to openjdk:8u242-slim-buster.

The problem is that the image does not build any more: the libesd0-dev package is missing from debian buster. I don't now if I can remove the package from the image, if I can replace it by another package (the closest I found is libesd-java bit I'm absolutely not sure the latter can replace the prior). The curl command is also missing and should be added as a package. With these two changes, I can achieve to build an image, but I don't know if the resulting image is working well.

In the end, this small update is driving me much further than I tought and I do not feel skilled enough to achieve this task.

Maybe @jfloff can be helpful to say what dependency is required or optional.

unzip was also missing.

I get an error about another missing library:

error while loading shared libraries: libncurses.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I think I can't go any further without some help.

[oupala]

Is there any hope to get some help?

Is there anyone having an idea of the current version of repo?

@jfloff Have you a few minutes to help me just a little?

It is libncurses-dev.

In this comment (22 Oct 2019), I was saying that repo was only available in version 1.13.7 in the repo repo. This repo is currently proposing a lot a releases between 1.13.7 and 2.11.1.

Currently, a simple rebuild should be enough to update the version of repo.

[sailinggalaxians]

Can we have a new update, please?

Output from running repo sync:

info: A new version of repo is available

You should have a look at https://github.com/lineageos4microg/docker-lineage-cicd

I'm getting this now. Did you solve it?
