+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #747646 +++ +++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #740823 +++ Description of problem: The channel setup in rhn for RHEV 3.0 has all the rhev-m packages under the RHEL6 base channel. The rhev-hypervisor packages, however, are still under the RHEV base channel and thus can't be installed on the RHEV-M machine --- Additional comment from pmyers on 2011-10-20 11:35:05 EDT --- This bug is to track changing the rhev-hypervisor SRPM spec file so that the resulting subpackage name is: rhev-hypervisor6 instead of rhev-hypervisor This will allow RHEV 3.0 users to independently install and update both RHEVH 5.x and RHEVH 6.x on the same RHEVM server machine. This bug is a dependency of bug # 740823 which is to change the channels to support the above functionality
This bug is to track changing the rhev-hypervisor SRPM spec file so that the resulting subpackage name is: rhev-hypervisor5 instead of rhev-hypervisor This will allow RHEV 3.0 users to independently install and update both RHEVH 5.x and RHEVH 6.x on the same RHEVM server machine. This bug is a dependency of bug # 740823 which is to change the channels to support the above functionality
Changes made: RPM names are rhev-hypervisor5 and rhev-hypervisor5-tools installing rhev-hypervisor5 should not pull -tools, but installing -tools should pull rhev-hypervisor5. Only 1 requirement for rhev-hypervisor5 -- rpmdevtools which is a %post requirement. Layout of the installation should be the same in /usr/share/rhev-hypervisor -tools package should require anaconda-runtime, parted, dosfstools anaconda-runtime is for isomd5sum rhev-hypervisor5 should obsolete all older rhev-hypervisor-5* packages Should still be installable side-by-side
Need to make an update similar to bug 748005 comment 9. Currently we create /etc/rhev-hypervisor5-release and not /etc/rhev-hypervisor-release
Pushed equivalent change to Makefile for rhev-hypervisor5
