Update the fedora-bootc-nvidia image by checking available versions on the NVIDIA repository and modifying the appropriate configuration files.
Step 1: Detect available updates
List Fedora versions supported by NVIDIA
curl -s "https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/" | grep -oP 'fedora\d+' | sort -t 'a' -k2 -n | uniq
Find the latest driver version for a given Fedora version
STREAM=43 # Replace with target version
curl -s "https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/fedora${STREAM}/x86_64/" | grep -oP 'kmod-nvidia-open-dkms-\K[0-9.]+(?=-1)' | sort -V | tail -1
Decision logic
- If a new Fedora version appears in the NVIDIA repo → bump both STREAM and DRIVER_VERSION
- If only a new driver is available for the current STREAM → bump only DRIVER_VERSION
Step 2: Modify files
2.1 build-args.conf
Update STREAM and DRIVER_VERSION:
STREAM=<new_version>
DRIVER_VERSION=<new_driver>
2.2 .github/workflows/build-image.yml
Update the matrix (lines 32-33):
matrix:
STREAM: [<new_version>]
NVIDIA_DRIVER_VERSION: [<new_driver>]
2.3 README.md
Update the ARG values in the Containerfile example (section "Serve a LLM with RamaLama"):
ARG STREAM=<new_version>
ARG VERSION=<new_driver>
Step 3: Verifications
Validate YAML syntax
python3 -c "import yaml; yaml.safe_load(open('.github/workflows/build-image.yml'))"
Local test build
source build-args.conf
podman build --build-arg-file build-args.conf -f Containerfile.builder -t $BUILDER_IMAGE
podman build --build-arg-file build-args.conf -f Containerfile -t localhost/fedora-bootc-nvidia
Step 4: Commit
Recommended commit message format:
Bump to Fedora <STREAM> with NVIDIA driver <DRIVER_VERSION>
Or if only the driver:
Update NVIDIA driver to <DRIVER_VERSION>
