bcfg2 yum support under SLES10SP2

[https://www.google.com/accounts/o8/id?id=AItOawntJ05hIp41Y-72vdUTMMBOIn4BrYWCDOE]

I'm currently trying to get yum to work under SLES10SP2 with the Packages plugin. On the client side, I've configured yum and I'm able to install rpms using the yum command manually.

I had to update the following line in Packages.py in order to get yum to even execute from inside the bcfg2 client: (added the suse group below)

basegroups = ['redhat', 'centos', 'suse']

Here's a test for installing the "mc" package, running bcfg2 -qvd. I omitted the large RPM listing that gets generated during the beginning of the client run:

installOnlyPackages = ['kernel', 'kernel-bigmem', 'kernel-enterprise', 'kernel-smp', 'kernel-modules', 'kernel-debug', 'kernel-unsuppo rted', 'kernel-source', 'kernel-devel', 'kernel-default', 'kernel-largesmp-devel', 'kernel-largesmp', 'kernel-xen', 'gpg-pubkey'] erase_flags = allmatches? pkg_checks = true pkg_verify = true installed_action = install version_fail_action = upgrade verify_fail_action = none version_fail_action = upgrade Reading Local RPMDB Baseurl(s) for repo: http://instsrc-00.i/SLE10-SDK-SP2-Updates/sles-10-x86_64?

Running YUMng.Install() Attempting to install packages

/usr/bin/yum -d0 -y install mc

What's interesting is that it just sits there on the last warning line. Yum is still running in the background, but the "mc" rpm actually is installed. It just looks like the client is getting hung up for some reason.

Relevant Configs:

And the bundle is associated with the group the client is in.

Thanks for your help, Ed

This should be working properly in 1.1.0rc5. (We have other reports of success using yum/sles10 with Packages and YUMng)
