Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 986506
Need to determine RPM packages to be excluded from compose . . .
Last modified: 2013-12-02 09:34:30 EST
Per the following discussion on IRC and after chatting with Nathan, we probably need to inform Release Engineering which packages need to be excluded from their RHEL 7 compose: <mharmsen> alee, edewata: does RHEL 7.0 include all RPM packages that are a part of pki-core SRPM (regardless of whether or not they are supported)? <mharmsen> nkinder: ^^^^ <mharmsen> alee, edewata, nkinder: the reason that I am asking this is actually because of pki-symkey --- since it is a JNI library, it needs to be checked on RHEL 7 to make certain that it is going to the same place as JSS on RHEL 7 <nkinder> mharmsen: not sure if subpackages can be tagged independently for the compose or not. <nkinder> mharmsen: perhaps kwright knows <kwright> nkinder: for composes, they use xml files which can list individual packages and/or subpackages * kwright not technically "tagged" <kwright> although, they also can use tagging for composes <kwright> but tags can't be used for subpackages <kwright> tags can only be used for packages <nkinder> kwright, mharmsen: thanks! So that means we can choose to exclude our unused subpackages from the compose. <mharmsen> alee, edewata, nkinder: this means that we should not be including pki-symkey (and don't have to worry about it being built from Dogtag 10.0 as it will be correctly from Dogtag 10.1/RHEL 7.x) <kwright> nkinder: is this for rhel-7? <mharmsen> kwright: yes <kwright> mharmsen: then I would file a release-engineering ticket and dmach or one of the rhel-7 guys will handle it <nkinder> kwright: yes, rhel7 <kwright> see ^^ <mharmsen> kwright, nkinder: sending email reminder to alee and edewata to discuss which packages should be excluded so that we can do this I did not file a TRAC ticket on this because it is specific to RHEL, and does not apply to Fedora.
Exclude the following 'pki-core' subpackages from the RHEL 7 'compose': * pki-symkey * pki-kra * pki-ocsp * pki-tks
On July 22, the following release ticket was filed: * https://engineering.redhat.com/rt/Ticket/Display.html?id=240073 Request to remove specific 'pki-core' subpackages from RHEL 7 compose . . . The ticket was rejected with the following comment: Dne Po 22.čec.2013 17:56:10, mharmsen@redhat.com napsal(a): Show quoted text Why don't you simply stop creating these subpackages in the spec file? Good practice is to exclude packages on compose level only on certain arches (typically if a package is compiled on an arch but doesn't work on it or we don't want to ship it for some business reason). In this case, I'd really recommend adding couple %if-s to the spec. Consequently, a discussion took place on IRC with nkinder and alee, and it was determined that we would add the logic to exclude building these four packages (on RHEL 7 only) to the pki-core.spec file.
Created attachment 778009 [details] Patch to exclude pki-kra, pki-ocsp, and pki-tks from RHEL 7
Created attachment 778026 [details] Patch to exclude pki-kra, pki-ocsp, and pki-tks from RHEL 7
(In reply to Matthew Harmsen from comment #5) > Created attachment 778026 [details] > Patch to exclude pki-kra, pki-ocsp, and pki-tks from RHEL 7 This replacement patch replaced the original patch as ACKed by Endi S. Dewata via email: As mentioned over IRC, just one minor thing, the pki-symkey dependency in pki-tks can be removed because it's already added to pki-server. Everything else is good. ACK.
