I checked the contents of the %pre script, it is the same on f17 and master
and contains:
%if %{with_libvirtd}
%pre daemon
%if 0%{?fedora} >= 12 || 0%{?rhel} >= 6
# Normally 'setup' adds this in /etc/passwd, but this is
# here for case of upgrades from earlier Fedora/RHEL. This
# UID/GID pair is reserved for qemu:qemu
getent group kvm >/dev/null || groupadd -g 36 -r kvm
getent group qemu >/dev/null || groupadd -g 107 -r qemu
getent passwd qemu >/dev/null || \
useradd -r -u 107 -g qemu -G kvm -d / -s /sbin/nologin \
-c "qemu user" qemu
%endif
If I run
getent group kvm >/dev/null || groupadd -g 36 -r kvm
getent group qemu >/dev/null || groupadd -g 107 -r qemu
getent passwd qemu >/dev/null || \
useradd -r -u 107 -g qemu -G kvm -d / -s /sbin/nologin \
-c "qemu user" qemu
manually as root, it works without error. And after doing that,
“yum install libvirt-daemon” works just fine:
$ LANG=en_GB.UTF-8 sudo yum install --disablerepo=updates libvirt-daemon
Loaded plugins: langpacks, presto, refresh-packagekit

I don’t understand why it does not work until I run that %pre script manually.
(In reply to comment #1) > I don’t understand why it does not work until I run that %pre script > manually. Because when you run those commands from a root shell, they are running in an unrestricted context, but when they're run from an rpm %pre script they are restricted. For more details, see the Bug 844167 (which this is a duplicate of). (BTW, sorry for taking so long to comment here - I had seen the nag email, but from a quick glance at the subject assumed it was just another response to 844167) *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 844167 *** |
I tried to use "yum install @virtualization" to install the virtualization stuff, but it didn’t install the libvirt-daemon package. When I tried to install that seperately, it didn’t install either because the %pre script failed: $ LANG=en_GB.UTF-8 sudo yum install --disablerepo=updates libvirt-daemon Loaded plugins: langpacks, presto, refresh-packagekit Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package libvirt-daemon.x86_64 0:0.9.11.3-1.fc17 will be installed --> Finished Dependency Resolution Dependencies Resolved ================================================================================ Package Arch Version Repository Size ================================================================================ Installing: libvirt-daemon x86_64 0.9.11.3-1.fc17 fedora 1.8 M Transaction Summary ================================================================================ Install 1 Package Total download size: 1.8 M Installed size: 3.7 M Is this ok [y/N]: y Downloading Packages: libvirt-daemon-0.9.11.3-1.fc17.x86_64.rpm | 1.8 MB 00:01 Running Transaction Check Running Transaction Test Transaction Test Succeeded Running Transaction Error in PREIN scriptlet in rpm package libvirt-daemon-0.9.11.3-1.fc17.x86_64 error: %pre(libvirt-daemon-0.9.11.3-1.fc17.x86_64) scriptlet failed, exit status 6 Verifying : libvirt-daemon-0.9.11.3-1.fc17.x86_64 1/1 Failed: libvirt-daemon.x86_64 0:0.9.11.3-1.fc17 Complete! mfabian@ari:/local/mfabian/qemu-images $ LANG=en_GB.UTF-8 rpm -q libvirt-daemon package libvirt-daemon is not installed mfabian@ari:/local/mfabian/qemu-images $
