[Spacewalk-list] Missing RPMs for SLE_15

[William Hongach]

Hi All,

I'm trying to install/build Spacewalk 2.8 for SLE_15 running on s390x. Most of the RPMs in noarch and/or src get the job done, but I am missing two in particular as follows:

2 Problems:
Problem: nothing provides newt-python3 needed by python3-rhn-setup-2.8.25-3.5.noarch
Problem: nothing provides python3-spacewalk-usix needed by python3-rhncfg-5.10.122-4.2.noarch

I'm using the standard repo at: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/systemsmanagement:/spacewalk:/2.8/SLE_15/

I noticed that the server has the "python3-newt" package installed, so the first error might be a typo in the dependency that it is checking (server also has full newt package installed). However, I definitely cannot locate a source RPM or noarch RPM for python3-spacewalk-usix.

I do have python2-spacewalk-usix installed. Will this suffice? If not, can someone point me in the right direction to obtain the python3 version? It seems like our SLE_12 servers were happy using the python2 libraries, but SLE_15 wants to use the python3 libraries for all of these Spacewalk 2.8 RPMs.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. I understand most of the SLE binaries will be for x86_64, so I'm happy to obtain the source RPMs and build our own for s390x.

Thanks in advance.

Hi William

I ran into similar issues and decided to build the packages for SLES 15 by myself.

Yes, newt-python3 should be python3-newt. Not sure, but I guess Red Hat and Suse have different naming conventions for packages. This is easy to fix in the .spec file

The spacewalk-usix rpm was built with python2-spacewalk-usix. However, I didn't install these packages and was able to register my SLES 15 system and work with it as usual. I am not saying this packages are unnecessary, they just might be needed for spacewalk functionality I don't use.

Javier

Hi Javier,

I am guessing the python3-spacewalk-usix issue only affects rhncfg as you have discovered. The rest of the suite probably works fine. Unfortunately, we make use of Spacewalk's configuration management so I will need to get it working. I considered changing the spec file's requirements for SUSE and rebuilding rhncfg with python2, but it looks like Klaus is working on a fix. So I am hopeful we can get this worked on using python3 going forward.

Hi All,
Problem: nothing provides newt-python3 needed by python3-rhn-setup-2.8.25-3.5.noarch

That's a packaging bug I'm going to fix right now.

That's another packaging bug since there's no python3-variant being
build.

Sorry for the mess.

Hi Klaus,

No worries. SLE_15 is sufficiently new that we expected some issues with open source packages. We are currently still in the testing phase with regards to our SLE_15 image.

Will these fixes be uploaded to the Spacewalk 2.8 repo at download.opensuse.org, or will they be slated for the future release of Spacewalk 2.9? Let me know if I can assist with testing. Thanks.

The python3-newt dependency is already fixed. Building -usix for
python3 needs a bit more work and should be ready sometime next week.

Hi Klaus,

Sounds great. I will check back next week and let you know when it is tested successfully on our system.

Thank you!

Hi Klaus,

Any progress on the python3-usix libraries? If I can assist with testing, let me know.

Hi

I think it should be fixed now and you just need to wait a bit until the
rebuild is finished and the repo is published.

Hi Michael,

The python3 packages (noarch) installed successfully and I am now able to manage SLES 15 nodes via Spacewalk 2.8 on s390x architecture. Thank you for your assistance.
