Hello all, I am starting some activity in getting the prerequisites for Spacewalk Server on RHEL 8 (actually CentOS 8...) sorted.
I have forked the COPR spacewalk/nightly and am trying to get as many packages build as possible. I am currently at around 50%. 1. Do you have any suggestions on how to get the ant 1.10.1 ant-junit issues sorted? My experience with COPR is 0. My current step is to get the spacewalk-backend package built. Here, I am stuck with the python2-rhn-client-tools due to conflicts with the Python 3 version. So I analysed whether the requirement/dependency could be upped to the Python 3 version. 2. Can you please verify my approach/assumption: # grep -rlnw ./git/spacewalk/backend -e 'from up2date_client' # Search all files in backend for an import of the "python2-rhn-client-tools" python files backend/satellite_tools/satsync.py backend/satellite_tools/xmlWireSource.py backend/satellite_tools/repo_plugins/uln_src.py So python2-rhn-client-tools only seems to be required for "satellite_tools" #grep -rlnw backend -e 'from satellite_tools' - no results - So satellite_tools seems to be standalone in backend. From that, I would conclude that satellite is the only impact for that dependency. Verifying those three files for Python 3 should do the trick to remove the Python 2 dependency. Do you see it the same way? 3. Can you share any pre-work that has been done so far so I can focus on open items instead of redoing the same work you did? 4. Can you give any guidance/coordination to use time/efforts most effectively? Thank you and best wishes, Stefan _______________________________________________ Spacewalk-devel mailing list Spacewalk-devel@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/spacewalk-devel
