Re: [Avocado-devel] Avocado-vt support for Ubuntu 14.04

[Lukáš Doktor]

Dne 25.1.2017 v 06:44 Adil Kamal napsal(a):

Hello,

Please confirm if avocado (and more particularly avocado-vt) is
supported for Ubuntu in general, and Ubuntu 14.04 in specific. I am able
to install avocado with some plugin errors though, however can not get
avocado-vt to install on Ubuntu. Any clarity would be appreciated. I am
looking for a tool to test KVM compatibility with ARM v8 hardware. Thank
you.

Best,
Adil Mir

Hello Adil,

# Prerequisites + python-pip

yum install -y cryptsetup libseccomp libffi-devel

    cd /tmp

I already responded to you about running arm64 avocado-vt tests in private, let me share excerpt of my script to setup avocado which I use (not only) on arm: yum install -y PyYAML tcpdump genisoimage python-requests libvirt-python python-sphinx libvirt-devel gstreamer-python gdb gdb-gdbserver python-imaging bridge-utils git python-devel wget https://pypi.python.org/packages/source/s/setuptools/setuptools-7.0.tar.gz --no-check-certificate

    tar xzf setuptools-7.0.tar.gz
    cd setuptools-7.0
    python setup.py install
    wget https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py
    python get-pip.py

The python dependencies comes from PIP as EPEL is not supported on arm.
