I recompiled python-elementtree for FC-8 (although it sounds like the old one
works too, from what Allan says). Is there anywhere suitable to upload the
rebuilt package too?
I will give the nightly a try tomorrow.... Is there a source RPM for perl-Qt
anywhere?
Regards,
Steve.
PS: When is a good time to catch people on the IRC channel? I tried a couple
of days ago but got no answer... I assumed people were busy enjoying Christmas
:-)

Hi DongInn,
I see you are busy working hard this Christmas! Thank you very much. I did
as i said to Steve Blackburn below and install fc8 x86_64 with the old rpms
that i built. I also rebuilt witth ./build_all_rpms according to Eric Focht's
previous excellent intructions. Also I installed python-elementtree and perl-Qt
fro previous fc7 and fc-6 rpms builds of mine other than the crispy branch. It
is not enough to just copy the rpmlist for fc8 I had to make a new xml file
fc-8.x86_64.xml and fc-8-x86_64.rpmlist and i have uploaded with my email
previously both of these files as fc8.tar attachement.
Thank you again and OSCAR on to the NEW YEAR 2008!
Cheers,
Allan Menezes

Hi, I have checked in all the opkg meta rpms for all the OSCAR packages for
Fedora 7 / 8 - X86 and almost all the OSCAR normal packages have been rebuilt
and checked in. (Note, only mpich for Fedora 8 is not recompiled). Some fixes
are added and the fedora support should be much better than before. I hope
that anyone can test with branch-5-1 on fedora 7 / 8 and post any problems.

I'm having problems with the r6785 nightly (dated 23rd December) and am now
getting too deep / involved. I am using Fedora 8 x86_64 (with no updates)...
The first problem, which I managed to work around was needed oscar_server to
be added to /etc/hosts for the sanity check. Ticket 439 covers this but the
solution either isn't in the branch yet or doesn't solve all the issues.
I installed fc8 x86_64 on a cluster of five Quad cores with some problems but
it installed. In /tftpboot/distro you need a file fedora-8-x86_64.url that
contains the url of a remote repo of fc8 x86_64 distro. Choose one from
fedora.org mirrors with 2gbps download like this one using emacs or vi:
http://mirror.anl.gov/pub/fedora/linux/releases/8/Fedora/x86_64/os/
I had the problem of an apparent inconsitency in the names of distro-related
directories in tftpboot. If I follow the documentation on the wiki and put the
RPMs in /tftboot/distro/fedora-8-x86_64 I get an "Unable to detect OS error on
line 128 of PackageSmart.pm" error. If I change line 74 packagesmart to use
fedora instead of fc I go round in circles. Letting it recognise fc as well as
fedora gets further.
Do not tamper with PackageSmart.pm iteworks if you name your local distro in
/tftpboot/distro/fedora-8-x86_64 ( a directory) and copy all files from your
fc8 x86_64 dvd there!
I had to "yum install dhcp php-pear xinet xmlstarlet" to install from the
official online repo as none of these were on my DVD... are they really
missing from the distribution or is my dvd just broken?
2)Yes i had to to the above icluding yum install csh and below! That seems to
be broken. So for now yum the packages it does not find. You will also have to
build the rpms so do : svn co
https://svn.oscar.openclustergroup.org/svn/oscar/branches/crispy_5.1 crispy51
say in /opt then go to /opt/crispy51/scripts and do ./build_all_rpms and copy
all rpms from packages directory to /tftpboot/oscar/fc-8-x86_64 Also to get
started you need lxml and cheetah . You can download and istall them by :
python setup.py build; python setup.py install. yOu will first of all need
opkgc! Here it is : svn co
https://svn.oscar.openclustergroup.org/svn/oscar/pkgsrc/opkgc/trunk/ opkgc .cd
opkgc and ./configure;make; make install! Step 2 will build all the rpms for
you which you copy to /tftpboot/oscar/common-rpms and
/tftpboot/oscar/fc-8-x86_64 Alternately you can download the common repo and
fc-8-x96_64 repo rpms which i built and uploaded som time ago before fc8 was
released!
from the crispy branck and ADD the SIS dir of built common-rpms to it to get
going! Also when you are creating the client image add
;/tftpboot/oscar/fc-8-x86_64 to the gui first box. Happy Holidays, Allan
Menezes
When I run the install again, there seem to be yet more packages missing: "yum
install perl-XML-Simple perl-HTML-Tree perl-Tk perl-Qt" but perl-Qt fails to
install - does this need building for Fedora 8? At this point I decided I
might have gone too far down this rabbit hole already and thought it best to
get some feedback. Please let me know if I need to go back a few steps, or
what the next step might be. Seasons Greetings, Steve. PS: I tried
renaming the distro directory to fc-8-x86_64 but then tftpboot-check.pl fails
"ERROR: Impossible to find a local or online repository in /tftpboot for the
distro fedora-8-x86_64" so I changed line 19 of tftpboot-check.pl to use the
compat_distro when determining the distro_id. This gets me further but
wizard_prep keeps recreating the /tftboot/distro/fedora-8-x86_64 directory
(which tftfboot-check then complains is empty the second time around!)

stopped shipping python-elementtree. It would be
great if you can help us verify support -- however, my work with f8-i386
would most definitely help with your endeavor on x86_64, but it definitely
does not mean support as you'll still need to rebuild all the RPMs.
Ask us questions if you run into issues, we'll help you out. I'll try to
check in my changes tonight. Cheers, Bernard
