bazzite dnf5 unstable builds out of space

all said, i don't think dnf5 is actually doing a full "dnf update" as I above suggested it might be...

when i do a "bazz0" pre-update image... the total image size is another 1.4GB larger than what I had before

@M2 @Kyle Gospo

I'm looking at this from a different angle

bshermanOP•1/12/25, 9:37 PM

I just looked at the Maximize Build Space stop ublue-os/remove-unwanted-software@v7ublue-os/remove-unwanted-software@v7

it's only cleaning about 3.5 GB of space... and tons of packages are not even installed which it's trying to remove, so i think that may be out of date for Ubuntu 24.04 builders

current start of action:
/dev/root 72G 45G 27G 63% //dev/root 72G 45G 27G 63% /
after cleanup:
/dev/root 72G 35G 37G 49% //dev/root 72G 35G 37G 49% /

so, it IS cleaning about 10GB but i still think it's missing a good bit of what it should be doing

oh holy shit dude

j0rge•1/12/25, 9:48 PM

the answer is obvious

j0rge•1/12/25, 9:48 PM

fucking the new ubuntu image from github

j0rge•1/12/25, 9:49 PM

they reworked the thing.

j0rge•1/12/25, 9:49 PM

there's a huge issue in github with all the changes, people complaining, etc.

j0rge•1/12/25, 9:49 PM

AND I have been merging the renovate updates to this action

j0rge•1/12/25, 9:50 PM

shit I've been dealing with this with work shit and didn't put 2 and 2 together?

Robert•1/12/25, 9:50 PM

I'm going to check something.
My Achillobator PR runs on a container image. The host may use a different base image, since it would make sense for them to have a slimmer OS. It only needs Docker.

So it will depend on how they implement things

bshermanOP•1/12/25, 9:50 PM

I’m working on fixing our disk space cleanup action now

Noel•1/12/25, 9:54 PM

Isn't there an upstream one that the Ublue action builds from?

bshermanOP•1/12/25, 9:54 PM

yeah, we forked and modified

Bbsherman I’m working on fixing our disk space cleanup action now

j0rge•1/12/25, 9:54 PM

yeah so, this was supposed to come out in the summer but they kept punting

j0rge•1/12/25, 9:55 PM

it's not just a version bump to 24.04 they reworked the stuff they included, etc.

it's a rolling upgrade to -latest that started in december and will finish end of this month, though we specify the version like good cloud nerds.

j0rge•1/12/25, 9:56 PM

Still though, I would expect cleaning actions to need work

j0rge•1/12/25, 9:57 PM

some people are pissed I read some good ones.

Noel•1/12/25, 9:58 PM

Well, the good news is we have a lead to fix it

This makes a lot of sense.

My cosmic Nvidia image keeps requiring me to remove more or more stuff in order to build and i didn't think about the maximize space not working as well anymore

MM2 This makes a lot of sense. My cosmic Nvidia image keeps requiring me to remove ...

bshermanOP•1/12/25, 10:05 PM

yep, and i recently hit the same kind of concern on my personal image

bshermanOP•1/12/25, 10:05 PM

we can remove the swap file!

j0rge•1/12/25, 10:06 PM

sherman on

bshermanOP•1/12/25, 11:26 PM

i wonder if we want to remove the swapfile

bshermanOP•1/12/25, 11:36 PM

ok, i think this is going to help some

M2•1/12/25, 11:37 PM

53 GB available lol....

bshermanOP•1/12/25, 11:37 PM

and we could remove the swapfile also, if we wanted, but this does not

Robert•1/12/25, 11:37 PM

If we remove everything except what's required for Docker, will that free up much more space? Or are we almost at that point already?

bshermanOP•1/12/25, 11:38 PM

for comparison, previous version of the cleanup action:

RRobert If we remove **everything** except what's required for Docker, will that free up...

bshermanOP•1/12/25, 11:40 PM

nearly at that point... i'm still not removing:
- CodeQL Action Bundles (~5GB)
- Swapfile (~4GB)

otherwise removing everything already on image
- .NET
- Android
- GHC/Haskell
- pre-cached Docker images
- large Apt packages
- cached tools

bshermanOP•1/12/25, 11:41 PM

but all this stuff is configurable from the action call with inptus

Robert•1/12/25, 11:41 PM

Awesome! The CodeQL action bundles probably can also be removed?

bshermanOP•1/12/25, 11:41 PM

honestly, feels like we could just use the upstream image and set the proper inputs

bshermanOP•1/12/25, 11:42 PM

we aren't doing anything except defaulting the inputs to true at this point

bshermanOP•1/12/25, 11:42 PM

(and adding optional sudo)

Bbsherman honestly, feels like we could just use the upstream image and set the proper inp...

Noel•1/12/25, 11:42 PM

The upstream works pretty well IMO

Robert•1/12/25, 11:42 PM

What were we doing before?

bshermanOP•1/12/25, 11:42 PM

before, we removed a few packages which upstream hadn't yet removed

Robert•1/12/25, 11:43 PM

Oh. So upstream has caught up and improved beyond our fork since then?

j0rge•1/12/25, 11:44 PM

sgtm, one more repo we can delete, makes sherman happy

RRobert Oh. So upstream has caught up and improved beyond our fork since then?

bshermanOP•1/12/25, 11:44 PM

yep

j0rge•1/12/25, 11:44 PM

DO IT. And let the English see you do it.

bshermanOP•1/12/25, 11:44 PM

i'm running out of time today

j0rge•1/12/25, 11:44 PM

async work ftw, document and gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

bshermanOP•1/12/25, 11:44 PM

but i'll test upstream direct once, and then test bazzite as an example

Robert•1/12/25, 11:45 PM

Do we want to keep maintaining our fork, but just sync from upstream periodically? We've used our repo in image templates and I'm sure many other repos also do

j0rge•1/12/25, 11:45 PM

we know what the issue is cc @Kyle Gospo
