Description Alon Bar-Lev 2013-09-13 10:47:12 UTC
Currently, rhevm provides embedded 3rd party java dependencies that are missing from rhel, this includes:

apache-commons-compress
apache-commons-configuration
apache-commons-jxpath
apache-commons-lang
apache-mina
apache-sshd
jakarta-commons-httpclient
postgresql-jdbc
quartz
spring-ldap
springframework-*
xmlrpc-client

To allow greater flexibility to release 3rd party fixes and push security fixes, a separate package can be added to allow updating dependencies without product update.

The rhevm package will create symlinks for these components instead of embed them.

We can discuss if we want to enable this service for centos as well.

Comment 9 Alon Bar-Lev 2013-10-09 14:41:35 UTC
QA note:

# find /usr/share/ovirt-engine -type f -name '*.jar'

Should result in just:

frontend.jar
gwt-extension.jar

All other jars are symlinks, either to /usr/share/java/ovirt-engine which is own package or to /usr/share/java/rhevm-dependencies/ which is rhevm-dependencies.

Comment 10 Tareq Alayan 2013-10-09 16:28:34 UTC
tested on is18.
Verified.

after yum install rhevm 

find /usr/share/ovirt-engine -type f -name '*.jar'

/usr/share/ovirt-engine/engine.ear/webadmin.war/WEB-INF/lib/frontend.jar
/usr/share/ovirt-engine/engine.ear/webadmin.war/WEB-INF/lib/gwt-extension.jar
/usr/share/ovirt-engine/engine.ear/userportal.war/WEB-INF/lib/frontend.jar
/usr/share/ovirt-engine/engine.ear/userportal.war/WEB-INF/lib/gwt-extension.jar
