Description etienne.muesse 2022-03-02 14:06:16 UTC

wont detect dnf for AlmaLinux.

ok_to_use_dnf (src/otopi/packager.py) should also check for "AlmaLinux" distribution.

I am trying to install ovirt on AlmaLinux 8.5 using engine-setup.
This only works if I set OTOPI_DNF_ENABLE=1.
Otherwise I get "Failed to execute stage 'Environment setup': No supported package manager found in your system".

Comment 1 Yedidyah Bar David 2022-03-02 14:28:12 UTC

Thanks for the bug. Do you want to push a patch? Otopi is now managed on github. I don't mind pushing a patch for you - should be trivial - but do not have time/resources for verifying it. Thanks!

Comment 2 Yedidyah Bar David 2022-03-02 15:18:28 UTC

Pushed a PR. Please verify. Thanks!

Comment 3 etienne.muesse 2022-03-03 08:34:44 UTC

Thanks, PR works on AlmaLinux 8.5

Thanks for the report. Was this enough for completing engine-setup? Anything else missing?

Comment 5 Yedidyah Bar David 2022-03-03 10:50:51 UTC

QE: On CentOS/RHEL, sanity testing is enough (e.g. engine-setup doing an upgrade).

Comment 6 etienne.muesse 2022-03-03 10:55:32 UTC

Yes, I just replaced the packager.py file with your PR. After that I could finish engine-setup.

Comment 7 czadikem 2022-04-17 03:58:20 UTC

I tried to replace the packager.py file with the modified one and it didn't work instead I got an error.  I am also unable to install ovirt4.5 so how can I do that as I said here https://almalinux.discourse.group/t/almalinux-ovirt-install-help/1007

If this was a question to me (as the bug owner), then sorry - I don't know, never tried almalinux myself. comment 3 and comment 6 seem to imply that it does work. I suggest to ask on a mailing list - users@ovirt or an almalinux list.
