Closed thozza closed 12 months ago

thozza commented 12 months ago

Add a section how can one reproduce image builds locally, using the files and information attached to each Koji build.

Are the composes available for a limited timespan and if so should this be noted?

I think they don't expire, but I might be wrong. If they do, it's pretty long.

I would say that this heavily depends on the pipeline configuration, which is distribution-specific. I didn't include any note on that, because this docs is distribution-agnostic. But in reality, it may happen that the compose from which the image is already gone and thus one would not be able to rebuild the image using the attached manifest. But if this happens, the image build itself is probably not relevant any more (since images built as part of a compose are part of the compose itself).
