Turn off verification per packages in Packages plugin

[Jack Neely <[email protected]…>]

There is no way to turn off verification of specific packages when using the Packages plugin.

I'm testing on Fedora 11 and authconfig is altering the PAM configurations using symlinks:

# rpm -V pam
....L....  c /etc/pam.d/fingerprint-auth
....L....  c /etc/pam.d/password-auth
....L....  c /etc/pam.d/smartcard-auth
S.5....T.  c /etc/pam.d/system-auth

Verifying package instances for pam
        0:1.0.91-6.fc11.i586
        verify_flags = ['', 'nomtime', 'nomd5', 'nosize']
 {'files': [['RPMVERIFY_LINKTO', 'c', '/etc/pam.d/fingerprint-auth'], ['RPMVERIFY_LINKTO', 'c', '/etc/pam.d/password-auth'], ['RPMVERIFY_LINKTO', 'c', '/etc/pam.d/smartcard-auth']], 'nevra': ('pam', None, '1.0.91', '6.fc11', 'i586')} 
*** Instance 0:1.0.91-6.fc11.i586 failed RPM verification ***

I'm not able to teach Bcfg2 that the PAM package is okay.

There is a workaround that you can put verify='false' into the bundle with the Package in it. We will have a better mechanism for this in 1.0.1
