Allow converting CentOS Stream 8 in upstream

XMLWordPrintable

    • 2024-R2

      The work has been already started under https://github.com/oamg/convert2rhel/pull/267.

      Acceptance criteria:

      • The stream yum variable is passed to dnf after we remove centos-stream-repos package, likely through the `--setopt=stream=8-stream` dnf option
      • The system version detection is updated to read CentOS Stream 8 /etc/system-release
      • The systeminfo.id has the value "stream" when on CentOS Stream 8
      • A new config file, similar to the one for CentOS Linux 8, is created for CentOS Stream 8
      • The releasever dnf variable mapping is updated to allow CentOS Stream 8
      • Enable automation of running integration tests on CentOS Stream 8 using Packit/Testing Farm

      Additional information:

      # cat /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Stream-BaseOS.repo 
      [baseos]
      name=CentOS Stream $releasever - BaseOS
      mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$stream&arch=$basearch&repo=BaseOS&infra=$infra
      # python3 -c 'import dnf, pprint; db = dnf.Base(); pprint.pprint(db.conf.releasever)'
      '8'
      # cat /etc/yum/vars/stream 
      8-stream
      # rpm -qf /etc/yum/vars/stream 
      centos-stream-repos-8-6.el8.noarch
