From: Patrick Steinhardt Date: Fri, 09 Oct 2026 11:31:57 GMT Subject: [PATCH v2 0/8] ci: some housekeeping and modernizations Message-ID: <20261009-pks-ci-housekeeping-v2-0-6863d58ef691@pks.im> In-Reply-To: <20261008-pks-ci-housekeeping-v1-0-baf015c589c0@pks.im> Hi, this patch series is a result from the discussions in [1]. It fixes a couple of smaller issues in our CI and bumps jobs that use EOL Docker images to instead use supported ones. Passing test runs can be found at [2] and [3] for GitLab and GitHub, respectively. Note that I've also merged the Meson changes (ps/meson-improvements at ce4a600322 (gitlab-ci: fix hanging MSVC jobs, 2026-09-24)) in there so that GitLab passes, but those are not strictly required as a dependency. Changes in v2: - Improve commit messages. - Rework the "linux-reftable" job to be more useful instead of dropping it. - Link to v1: https://patch.msgid.link/20261008-pks-ci-housekeeping-v1-0-baf015c589c0@pks.im Thanks!
