troubleshooting a build failure under mock
by Anthony Joseph Seward 02 Mar '07

02 Mar '07

My situation is this: my build system is running Scientific Linux 4.4 (basically RHEL 4) with mock 0.6.12. It fails to build a particular RPM when trying to compile a fortran file. The error issued is mkscrlib.f:381: internal compiler error: Illegal instruction When I set up mock 0.6.12 on my laptop running FC6 with all updates and run the same script to build the RPM, it builds just fine. The target distribution for the mock build is FC6. SELinux is disabled on the SL 4.4 box. When I run mock with '--debug', there is a lot of information, but I have no idea what to look for or how to continue to troubleshoot this. Can anyone offer any suggestions? Tony

plague on fc7 with sqlite, xmlrpc problems
by Ken MacLeod 01 Mar '07

01 Mar '07

I'm trying to get plague set up and I'm running into compatibility problems that lead me to think I'm starting in the wrong place. I picked FC7 and sqlite to start with for plague's home OS and a non-DB-server DB option. The production system will be RHEL4/5 once I'm comfortable I know how to get things running smoothly. I tried briefly with RHEL4 a few months back and didn't get this far. I started with a fresh install of FC7 (incl. python-2.5, python-sqlite2) and plague 0.4.4.1-4.fc7 RPMs. After running into some of the first issues I switched to CVS MAIN with similar results. Here's what I've done so far: * server/DBManager.py - import sqlite3 as sqlite - remove encoding="utf-8" from sqlite.connect * server/main.py * server/BuildMaster.py - sqlite hack: move dbm connection into BuildMaster so it can create one for each thread. * common/XMLRPCServerProxy.py - set self._use_datetime = 0 * common/AuthedXMLRPCServer.py - pass allow_none=False and encoding=None to SimpleXMLRPCServer.SimpleXMLRPCDispatcher's * builder/Config.py server/Config.py - change BaseConfig.BaseConfig.ConfigError to BaseConfig.ConfigError I have the builder and server on the same host, w/o SSL yet. With the 0.4.4.1 RPMs and some of the changes above the server was able to talk to the builder but I ran into the sqlite problem and switched to CVS at that point. CVS has the new Active/Passive builders but the default port configs don't appear to be correct for having the builder and server on the same machine, but I can't match up the config sections and field names in the server and builder configs to point them at each other correctly. At this point, the server's not seeing any builders. I tried running 'plague-client list' anyway and get an exception "local variable 'curs' referenced before assignment" which I'm pretty sure is caused by my sqlite thread hack. What OS+versions should I use to get plague up and running most quickly? Once I'm up and running in a known-working environment I'd have a better idea of what changes are right for FC7 or RHEL4/5. Thanks, -- Ken

Re: pungi ignores a lot of RPMs when building CD image -> I maybe got it
by Remy Bohmer 26 Feb '07

26 Feb '07

Hello Jesse, A while I had the problem that caused Pungi/Anaconda to install a custom RPM with a case-sensitivity problem, which caused me to finally stop using Pungi to build my installation CD. But, I think I now got a clue that could have caused that problem: I found the following problem while I was using yum in a different situation: Yum always uses the default config file in /etc/yum.conf, even if there is another configuration file is specified on the commandline with the -c option. It combines both repositiories, and mixes several thinks up if there is more than repository with the same name. I have not tested it in combination with pungi, I do not have that build environment anymore that had this problem. Do you know where I should post this bug? Kind Regards, Remy

Pungi: Howto build all FC6

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Nice that the default is to build a minimal 1 CD but now that pungi uses "Manifest" how does one go about building the entire media set for FC6 on the latest version (0.2.4-1).

The fc6 vs. fc7 buildsys issue again

Does anyone understand the following build job? Copy of the page is appended below. http://buildsys.fedoraproject.org/build-status/job.psp?uid=27730 Target fc6, tag fc6, but the buildsys used fc7 in paths and created a fc7 src.rpm, but fc6 binary rpms: http://buildsys.fedoraproject.org/logs/fedora-6-extras/27730-mono-debugger-… debugger-0.30-7.fc7.src.rpm How is that possible when plague-client targets fc6?

pungi ignores a lot of RPMs when building CD image
by Remy Bohmer 18 Feb '07

18 Feb '07

Hello all, I hope someone can help me on this one. Probably I am doing something wrong, but I cannot figure out what I do wrong: I am building a customised CD based on FC6 RPMs+custom RPMs. The problem I see is that the directory os/<prodname> contains all RPMS including all dependencies, but the directory os-disc1/<prodname> only contain a strange subset of the RPMs. I have 10 custom RPMs, but the os-disc1 directory contains only 31, and I expect a total of 330 RPMs. Notice that the entire RPM-collection in the os dir is about 340 MB, which properly fits on 1 CD. After the build only 1 iso is created of about 150 MB. So, calculating dependencies based on my comps.xml works well, but splitting the tree into CD's ignores a lot of RPMs. Does anyone here has an idea of what I might have forgotten to configure, or which error I make? Note: even the glibc rpms are not there in the CD-image... Therefor anaconda fails during installation (extraction phase of the RPMs), as it cannot find some localisation files. Kind Regards, Remy Bohmer

[patch][pungi] pungi-splitstages
by Essien Ita Essien 12 Feb '07

12 Feb '07

Hiya, This is another small patch. What it does is breakup the pungi process into different stages that can be invoked independently without going thru all the stages. the stages are: - Gather (-G) - Buildinstall (-B) - Package Order (-P) - Splittree (-S) - Iso Creation (-I) If none of this switches is specified, then the default behaviour continues (i.e, all are run one after the other), specifying *any* of the flags will cause the stage to be run. This split-up actually helps in scenarios when you change something, and know what you should be doing next, but do not want to run the whole process again. It also helps when debugging the process. A little issue though is that, I wasn't sure which stage that doGetRelnotes should fall under, so I put it under PackageOrdering stage, so each time -P is run, GetRelnotes() will also be run. Cheers, Essien

[pungi] flavor? and getsources
by Essien Ita Essien 12 Feb '07

12 Feb '07

Hi again, What's the idea behind the 'flavor' configuration keyword in pungi (using lattest tip). On inspecition, It seems to be appended to the version number and used to create directory paths. I guess I just want to know the "why" behind it :), or more like, the domain equivalence... basically... what the heck is a flavor :) cheers, Essien

w00t!!!
by Essien Ita Essien 09 Feb '07

09 Feb '07

Hiya All, First off... pungi is looking fantastic so far!!! I have a set of tools that do the same thing that pungi does... (i call it fcdistroutils, and i've been using it since FC4). Lately, I've had problem after problem with it, and when posting on the anaconda-devel list, Jesse Keating suggested I look at pungi... and so far... sooo cool :) I'm currently watching pungi run buildinstall, lets see if it works for me first try (i really hope it does... it blows my fcdistroutils out of the water). Anyways, as I keep using it, I'll be sure to help out in anyway that I can. A quick idea-type-suggestive-question-kinda anyone mulling over an integrated system that combines pungi and pilgrim? (I just ran across pilgrim last week too). I used to use fcdistro to build both my Installation CD, LiveCD (based off of kadischi) and ThinClient Image(s) (based off of kadischi). It would be nice to have a nice integrated system that allows you to just edit config files, and generate either: Install CD(s) Install DVD(s?) Live CD Live DVD root image(s) Complete dd-able thin-client image(s) Oh.. and btw, pungi is already at: 'Creating Little endian 3.0 filesystem on /tmp/minstg2.img.11522, block size 65536.' this may just work yet at first try :) Thanks for the Good Work. Cheers, Essien
