Week 50 (December 10th – December 16th)​

  • We have added a --resultdir option for building in mock via our CLI (packit build in-mock). (packit#2475)

  • For our specfile users, there is a new convenience method Sections.get_or_create() that allows you to manipulate a section without checking if it exists first. If a section doesn't exist, it will be appended to the end. For example, this will work properly even on spec files without %changelog:

    with spec.sections() as sections:
        changelog = sections.get_or_create("changelog")
        changelog[:] = ["%autochangelog"]

    (specfile#441)

  • We have also switched our base images from CentOS 9 Stream to Fedora 41 to allow you using the features from the latest rpm 4.20. (deployment#622)

  • We have unified status names for VM Image builds. (packit-service#2679)

  • We have started building our container images for alternative architectures. (packit-service#2675)
