Descr: Additions to the ODA loader routines to keep all pkg RPM information
in the database. (RPM List / ODA Loader Routines)
1) Update all 'config.xml' files to remove extra (non pkg) RPMS from
OPkg <rpmlist> elements, e.g.,
<rpmlist>
<rpm>pvm</rpm>
<rpm>not-mypkg-lib</rpm>
</rpmlist>
So, 'not-mypkg-lib' will need to be removed.
Those OPkgs that need to provide known un-provided distro RPMs, e.g.,
LAM/MPI and "libaio", they will still list the <rpm> but under a
'filter' scoping and using the 'scripts/setup' to move things from a
pkg/media/DISTRO/not-mypkg-lib.rpm --> pkg/RPMS/
2) If no 'config.xml' file OR 'config.xml' not contain <rpmlist>, then
this still implies install all files in the RPMS/ dir on all machines
in the cluster (server & clients). Just populate the database in
loader routines instead of leaving blank (current approach) using
something like [pseudo code]:
if( (not -e 'pkg/config.xml') or (not defined(xml.rpmlist)) ) {
$dir = opendir(pkg/RPMS/);
@rpms = grep(/\.rpm$/, readdir($dir) );
foreach my $rpm (@rpms) {
$rpm_name = `rpm -qp --qf '%{NAME}'`;
push(chomp($rpm_name), @rpm_names);
}
# Add info from @rpm_names into ODA
}
else {
# Add info from xml.rpmlist into ODA
}
Might effect:
* The code that copies things from the pkg/RPMS/ directory?
* Repackaging of non-opkg RPMS w/ opkgs (see example in #1 above)
* Will also effect the installation of opkgs into the image, but for now
we could just adjust any code that looks at the filesystem, to read
from ODA and then call DepMan/PacMan
