Bluefin and Aurora 3.4.0

Another boring one, most of this stuff is overly nerdy.

There is one major change for those of you who have opted into bluefin:latest. P5 has turned on the rechuncker. Bazzite has been using this for a while so this is more catch up for us. This reorganizes the layers in the container image to be more efficient.

  • Enjoy ~1GB in space savings
  • The download layers will now be smaller and evened out. (No more huge 2GB layer tacked on at the end of you -dx users)
  • Upgrades in general should be a bit faster
  • The initial download will be quite large, 3GB since we’re basically reorganizing the image. Subsequent daily downloads will be much smaller moving forward.

If you’re using a bluefin:gts (default) or bluefin:stable build we’ll turn this on for the builds next week after getting in some runs with the dailies.

Note that this is only a partial solution, zstd:chunked images will arrive later, you can track that work here: Move to zstd:chunked container images (#9) · Issues · fedora / bootc / Issue Tracker · GitLab
