The current mode of operation in the zypp driver is to download all packages into a temporary pkg-cache-dir. Installed packages in the root filesystem are ignored, otherwise zypper would download only a subset of packages, and it would not provide a list of all required dependencies. Remove the getuid check to force an empty root directory and use the configured system repositories. This works

Hi, During compilation of guestfs I get the following error: *supermin -v -o supermin.d --names augeas-libs btrfs-progs cryptsetup cryptsetup-luks e2fsprogs e4fsprogs genisoimage gfs-utils gfs2-utils grub hfsplus-tools hivex iproute iputils kernel libcap libldm MAKEDEV nilfs-utils ntfsprogs ntfs-3g openssh-clients pcre reiserfs-utils libselinux syslinux-extlinux systemd vim-minimal xz yajl

An attempt to use installed files in zypp driver. Add also a comment about the theory of operation. Enable set -x in shell only in verbose mode. This adds a dependency to xmlstarlet, which is required to parse zypper output.

It looks like zypper has no "ignore unknown packages/provides" flag. zypper .. install $pkg is called with an unknown package then zypper will just abort because it expects valid input. Maybe

The new run_shell helper is a copy of run_python, and will be used by upcoming changes.

Hi, I found the zypper provider mentioned on this list in another thread, but it failes with the flowing error : Package[kvm]/ensure: change from 0.11.0-4.5.2 to true failed: Could not update: undefined method `zypper'' for #<Puppet::Type::Package::ProviderZypper:0x7fd1acf9e360> at Is the latest provider broken? Is there interest in making this work / making it complete. I

I looked at OpenSUSE 11.3 (x86-64) and the 'zypper' package manager. Background ---------- libguestfs needs febootstrap to build the so-called supermin appliance. Since febootstrap 3.x, this requires porting febootstrap to each specific Linux package management system. We've already done this for yum (Fedora), apt (Debian/Ubuntu) and PacMan (ArchLinux). A port is reasonably

This is an attempt to handle a different --reposd-dir in the zypp_rpm driver. Up to now the system repositories in /etc/zypp/repos.d were used. To specify a different set of repositories for zypp a parser for a simple zypper.conf is added in this patch. It just looks for reposdir= in section main, like this: [main] reposdir=/path/to/other/repofiles If the config file provided via

I just tried to get libguestfs to compile on Ubuntu 11.10 using the latest febootstrap, and the following patches were necessary for me. They are all just reasonable code cleanups *except* for patch 5/5 which is a gross hack for something I don't understand about how Ubuntu 11.10 multiarch support works. Rich.

Use basename of external helper instead of 'no' for external supermin helpers. This gives a clear error messages what binary is actually missing, and it is now possible to install the missing package without recompiling libguestfs. In addition its now also possible to use private builds of supermin (if they are in PATH) with a given libguestfs binary package. Signed-off-by: Olaf Hering
