Thanks for updating the 6.0 repoTesting instructions, Geoffrey.
It makes sense, for example, to have something other than definitions
for [unstable] in /etc/oscar/supported_distros.txt.
Using oscar-config to setup for a given distro before bootstrapping also
makes sense.
Here is the direct output after following (verbatim) steps 1. to 6. at
http://svn.oscar.openclustergroup.org/trac/oscar/wiki/repoTesting.
You'll see it seems confused over whether yume is installed or not (it
is):

Chris,
I said something stupid yesterday: for bootstrapping limitation, the "oscar-config
--bootstrap" command does not generate a log file (i will have to improve that in
the future). But feel free to send me directly the output.
But, thanks to your message, i actually found a problem with OSCAR-6.0, a
configuration file provided by the oscar-base package is not up-to-date. :-( I
am very sorry about that and i updated the documentation to explain how to fix
the problem (pretty simple fix).
Therefore, if anyone wants to try OSCAR-6.0, please make sure that you follow
the documentation
(http://svn.oscar.openclustergroup.org/trac/oscar/wiki/repoTesting).
Let me know if you have any other issue.
Best regards,

Objet: Re: [Oscar-users] OSCAR-6.0 is out
Maybe so, but I just installed a fresh copy of CentOS 5.2 x86_64 (on Q6600
hardware) expressly to try this out, updated the OS as indicated, added
the oscar repo as indicated, and while the
"yum install oscar-base yume packman orm"
worked as advertised, proving the viabilty of the repo file just
added, and while the contents of /etc/oscar/oscar.conf look fine,
"oscar-config --bootstrap"
that is the next step fails immediately (can't locate package
perl-AppConfig). Yumming perl-AppConfig manually is trivial (I get
version 1.56-8.0.el5). Rerunning the bootstrap, it complains AppConfig is
already installed, ("Nothing to do."), then screams "impossible to get
default repository for centos-5-x86_64" and dies.
I presume this was working before being "released"?

OSCAR-6.0 is out!
This version provides the latest modifications which will ease future
developments. On the roadmap, we already plan to include many project on which
students worked during the summer 2008, including a benchmarking framework, a
monitoring framework, and mechanisms to deal with specific NFS configuration.
This version will also be a good base for bug fixes.
Remember that this version does not provide yet all the capabilities OSCAR were
used to provide. For this version, we focused on the implementation of a stable
OSCAR core and cleaning up; which should allow us to move forward. More
capabilities will be included in future OSCAR-6.x releases.
Right now, OSCAR-6.x supports only RHEL/CentOS 5 for both x86 and x86_64 in a
production environment. The support of Debian systems is still experimental
since we found a critical bug in opkgc (which should be fixed shortly).
OSCAR-6.0 is available via our YUM/APT on-line repositories. For more details
about how to use those repositories, please refer to
http://svn.oscar.openclustergroup.org/trac/oscar/wiki/repoTesting. The next
version of OSCAR-6.x will be available via the same repositories, providing an
easy way to update OSCAR.
Thanks,
Geoffroy Vallee
OSCAR Chair
