@anoopcs9 - why "do-not-merge"?

[phlogistonjohn]

Seems pretty reasonable. My main concern is that with the change in base os we're changing the versions of python that get used for running the tests. That said we can probably take this and iterate from that point... either getting py3.10 (or up) on centos stream 9 or making the containerfile flexible to run on either a fedora or centos base.

Therefore I'm leaning on taking this and then tweaking it but let me meditate on a little bit before approving.

@Mergifyio rebase

[mergify]

⚠️ This pull request got rebased on behalf of a random user of the organization.
This behavior will change on the 1st February 2023, Mergify will pick the author of the pull request instead.

To get the future behavior now, you can configure bot_account options (e.g.: bot_account: { author } or update_bot_account: { author }.

Or you can create a dedicated github account for squash and rebase operations, and use it in different bot_account options.

FWIW, I was working on something else and wanted to try f37 instead of f36. My workaround for the build process was to disable the rpm install and use the python wheel - which doesn't care about the python abi version.

LGTM. I think I will want to make this work on multiple base distros but that can be done later. Thanks!

why has mergify not kicked in?

Actually I had something else in mind while setting the do-not-merge label i.e, installing python3-sambacc(built with CentOS Stream 9) on Fedora 36. samba-container is layered with sambacc:latest and fedora:36 and thus I was not sure of any dependency issues/errors while installing python3-sambacc on Fedora 36. And now with this merged we encounter some installtion issues, see https://github.com/samba-in-kubernetes/samba-container/actions/runs/3982840129/jobs/6827649451

Mergify didn't kick in because not all the conditions were met. It would have ignored Anoop's do-not-merge label because of a typo. But it still would not have merged because the rule, summarized in english is:
Merge any PR that has 2 or more approvals and no requested changes. If the submitter is a maintainer then merge if the PR has one approval and is over two weeks old. Currently the only maintainers are me (@phlogistonjohn ) and @obnoxxx.

I was going to follow up on the miantainers thing later this week.
