Ubuntu-20.04 is ready to be the default version for the “ubuntu-latest” label in GitHub Actions and Azure DevOps. This change will be rolled out over a period of several weeks beginning on November, 30. (December, 22 - January, 4 will be a migration break due to holidays)

If you see any issues with your workflows during this transition period:

  • File an issue in this repository
  • Switch back to Ubuntu 18.04 by specifying the “ubuntu-18.04” label. We will continue to support Ubuntu 18.04.

Note that image software between Ubuntu-18.04 and Ubuntu-20.04 differs not only by the pre-installed versions of tools, but also by the default versions of some tools. See the list of missing and changes software below.

  • Python2 pip should be installed separately(curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py --output get-pip.py, python2 get-pip.py)
  • Ansible should be installed from the official Ubuntu repo, ppa:ansible/ansible isn't updated yet
  • Set condition in git-lfs installation (Ubuntu 18 & 20 can install git-lfs from Ubuntu repo)
  • Android SDK should be pointed to Java8 explicitly

Why is this being output as a warning? If a user relies on behavior from a specific version, they should be pinning it.

Hi @jhpratt ,
we have added a warning for those workflows who are using ubuntu-latest to notify about the upcoming change and give a time to check workflows and adjust them if needed beforehand the transition.
ubuntu-18.04 is the most popular OS in GitHub Actions and most of the customers are using it by tagging ubuntu-latest, so we should use as many communication channels as possible to reduce the unpredictable impact.

Add Author relationship model to application
Loading status checks…
5c448a0 
Why these changes are being introduced:

* The user-thesis relationship should clarify which users authored a
thesis
* We need a place to record whether a thesis author has graduated

Relevant ticket(s):

https://mitlibraries.atlassian.net/browse/ETD-75

How this addresses that need:

* Adds Author table to join User and Thesis
* Adds graduation_confirmed boolean column to Author
* Adds basic administrate UI to edit graduation_confirmed field

Side effects of this change:

* The sort feature has been removed from the processing queue, as the only
sort fields were date and name, and names are no longer sortable.
* The Ubuntu VM for GitHub actions has been pinned to version 18.04.
Ubuntu-latest bumps the version to 20.04 (per actions/virtual-environments#1816), which causes the test suite to fail. I will open a ticket
on our Jira board to investigate this further.

This upgrade broke my aws cli commands.
I was getting the following error

<botocore.awsrequest.AWSRequest object at 0x7f644d689630>
Error: Process completed with exit code 255.

I had to do

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-18.04

in order to get it working. If i use latest this goes to 20.04 and i would need to use new cli commands

.github/workflows/main.yml: run static-analysis on bionic
d051ed7 
GitHub Actions is transitioning workflow steps that run on
'ubuntu-latest' from 18.04 to 20.04 [1].

This works fine in all steps except the static-analysis one, since
Coccinelle isn't available on Ubuntu focal (it is only available in the
universe suite).

Until Coccinelle can be installed from 20.04's main suite, pin the
static-analysis build to run on 18.04, where it can be installed by
default.

ci/gha: run on ubuntu-20.04
4f90e79 
GHA currently warns about "runs-on: ubuntu-latest" being used,
because currently it means "ubuntu-16.04" and they are going
to switch to 20.04:

> Ubuntu-latest workflows will use Ubuntu-20.04 soon. For more details, see actions/virtual-environments#1816

Use 20.04 instead of "latest" to remove the warning, and actually
use the latest available ubuntu version.
