Created attachment 601643 [details] the error message Description of problem: While creating an RHEL-7 media lorax died on missing /selinux directory. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): lorax-17.26-1.fc17.x86_64 How reproducible: every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. run a coomand like lorax '--product=Red Hat Enterprise Linux' --version=7.0 --release=7.0 --source=file:///mnt/redhat/rel-eng/${LORAX_REPO}/compose/Server/x86_64/os/ --source=file:///root/repo -e $LORAX_EXCLUDE --buildarch=x86_64 '--volid=RHEL-7.0-0.13rcudebug' /tmp/lorax 2. see the attached error 3. Actual results: no media made. Expected results: the missing /selinux MUST be ignored an the media generated. Additional info:
This is not because of missing /selinux, that is ignored. Your problem is this line return call(["mksquashfs", rootdir, outfile] + compressargs) Do you have mksquashfs binary?
I suppose I had mksquashfs - I am running lorax on a test box as I try to avoid any encounter with gnome3 aka "by a click further" - ,the preceding runs were successful, but will recheck anyway. I am using the same f17 repo (internal).
despite the repo is the same, now no squashfs-tools package was installed. installed it additionally, and added it to xml too. (formerly I made 2-3 DVD images, capable to start anaconda, without squashfs-tools installation. Really strange.) Thanks for helping. The BZ is a NOTABUG of course.
