Ovirt devel - Jul 2011 - ovirt (git) build removes ovirtnode.password

Hi There,

I may be doing something wrong.    I built ovirt-node-image from git using
instructions at https://fedorahosted.org/ovirt/wiki/Build   (note: the -b
next should be removed from the wiki)

Anyway, moving on.   I successfully created an ovirt-node-image.iso, but
when I boot off it, the first boot fails with ovirtnode.password being
missing.   I can see in recipe/ovirt-node-image.ks that it recursively
removes *.py etc files but I couldn't find anywhere where it was actually
meant to compile the ovirtnode python code - ie. All of
/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ovirtnode/*.py are removed as part of the
iso image create.   I can see the python source in the generated
ovirt-node-2.0.1-999-fc15.noarch.rpm

As you can tell i'm doing this on F15 - anything i'm doing wrong here ?

Tks
Geoff

Thanks, I'll fix that.

The byte compile should be handled automatically in the rpm build step.
Does your ovirt-node.rpm contain the .pyc and .pyo files?  

Can you send your build log?  

Just some quick thoughts:

We do assume that you've already got the packages listed here installed
on your build machine:

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#Exceptions_2

More info on python byte compiling (as much for me and the rest of the
list as you :-)  ):

We're going to be dropping F15 support completely.  There is a bug in
dracut that isn't going to be fixed in F15 that will be done in F16.
I'll be posting patches to drop the F15 ks files from the repo later
today.  

You can still use F15 as a build host, you just need to tell it what
you're building by editing your .rpmmacros file with these entries:

%fedora 16
%dist .fc16

Thanks
