Hi
Came across a DTD issue, and would like some input.
In an AI manifest <software_data> element is optional and whether it
contains a list of packages is also optional, in AI what should happen
in this context.
Currently in cud_ai, this results in no actual IPS packages getting
installed at all.
What is the corrective action here :
1 - Make software_data a requirement of software ? and also make it a
requirement to contain a list of packages/consolidations to
install/uninstall ?
or
2 - If software_data is empty or not provided at all within a software
element then by default install what's specified in default.xml :
<name>pkg:/entire</name>
<name>pkg:/babel_install</name>
What would happen if action is "uninstall", not an issue I suppose
as it will simply uninstall nothing, and should not cause a failure.
The list of default packages to install really should be stored in a
central location, rather than being hard coded into auto_install.py, any
ideas where ?
#2 is not what we really want. Is there a downside to making
software_data a required element?
