[Bug 1791143] Re: Suggestion to make zfsutils-linux a snap
I would strongly discourage putting zfs-utils into a snap. I expect many systems admins running zfs storage arrays do not install snapd, and would be loathe to do so. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1791143 Title: Suggestion to make zfsutils-linux a snap To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/zfs-linux/+bug/1791143/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1791143] Re: Suggestion to make zfsutils-linux a snap
As kernels 5.2.0-x will bring zfs 0.8.x to Bionic LTS, I'd like to draw some attention to this request. People will get the 0.8.x zfs module via HWE but won't be able to do much with the major new features without the userland tools. I tried to install the debs from Eoan, but they require a higher libc version which complicates that route a lot. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1791143 Title: Suggestion to make zfsutils-linux a snap To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/zfs-linux/+bug/1791143/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1791143] Re: Suggestion to make zfsutils-linux a snap
My main reason for suggesting this is that it seems Canonical is easier on snaps wrt. having rolling upgrades. I don't see a reason debs can't do it, but I notice over and over again Canonical is very conservative upgrading major software versions on debs (which is no criticism, just a constatation). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1791143 Title: Suggestion to make zfsutils-linux a snap To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/zfs-linux/+bug/1791143/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1791143] Re: Suggestion to make zfsutils-linux a snap
Is there something inherent in snaps that makes this easier or better than debs? For example, do snaps support multiple installable versions of the same package name? If snaps aren’t inherently better, the same thing could be done with debs using the usual convention for having multiple versions in the archive simultaneously: having zfsutils0.6 and zfsutils0.7 source packages producing similarly versioned-in-the-name binary packages (which in this case conflict as they are not co-installable). Each would depend on an appropriate kernel package that has the matching module. Then zfsutils-linux would be an empty package with: Depends: zfsutils- linux0.7 | zfsutils-linux0.6. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1791143 Title: Suggestion to make zfsutils-linux a snap To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/zfs-linux/+bug/1791143/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
