OpenNebula package mantainer request
 

Hello,

We are about to release OpenNebula 2.0 [1], which is a Cloud Computing
framework, and we would like to include it in EPEL.

Is there anyone interested in being OpenNebula's package mantainer for EPEL?

If it helps, we have already built RPM packages, so we have a spec
file that works, but it should be reviewed by actual package
mantainers, since we didn't follow all the good practices listed in
the Fedora Packaging guidelines document.

Regards,
Jaime Melis

I can't commit the time to being the EPEL maintainer, but I'm definitely
interested in this. I wouldn't mind looking some at the packinging and being
a co-maintainer.

Hi Jamie,

I am interested and even started doing it a few months ago.
At that time I got stuck with your sqlite requirement which is why
the following has been done.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=571458
Though since then of course RHEL/EPEL6 is on it's way which
makes a good starting point.

We also of course as you well know use opennebula where I am.

may also interest you, I've added opennebula it's
wishlist.

Certainly it helps.

OpenNebula package mantainer request
 

Hello,

great to see interest regarding this request!

Mathew: thanks for your offer, I will let you know once the rpm gets
submitted to EPEL, or even before if we stumble with tricky things so
you can give us a hand if you have time for it.

Steve: I didn't know you were trying to package OpenNebula, that's
great. As you said there are tricky dependencies, especially sqlite.
One possible solution is to entirely disable sqlite, since OpenNebula
2.0 now fully supports mysql, so maybe we could remove sqlite from the
rpm package and use mysql by default.

There is also another dependency that concerns me: xmlrpc-c. For the
moment we use the xmlrpc-c and xmlrpc-c-devel packages from the
centos.karan.org repo.

regards,
Jaime

There's a new version of cmake well on the the way into EPEL5, this may well
help with xmlrpc-c being added.

OpenNebula package mantainer request
 

Hi,

Steve: thanks for the info, good to know.

Today we changed some code in OpenNebula and now it's compatible with
the current sqlite-devel package, so there's no more need to use newer
versions of sqlite (at least for opennebula).

The only "missing" dependency now is xmlrpc-c.

regards,
Jaime
