We added this sed in I422490ebe9a9c655552685bc2ff342d288335a9c to avoid installing python2 packages on python3-only systems and thus dragging in all of python2. We made a similar change to python-pip in I7d8ba9300039cce90965410a4e16ca9e711904c3; however we realised that the gate (and other consumers) were relying on this element having installed the python2 & 3 packages for consistency -- otherwise jobs would install the python-pip packages and overwrite the pip-from-source and mess everything up. We reverted that in I419dbdf4682394db68974944af1e5c432f3e0565 and added some clearer notes that this element brings in python2 & 3, and if you want something that doesn't do that then this element isn't for you. However, we never fixed up the virtualenv package install -- currently our Xenial images have a global virtualenv installed from source, but the python-virtualenv packages aren't installed. Thus if a job does "apt-get install python-virtualenv" it overwrites the from-source virtualenv with older parts and again messes everything up. Probably most jobs just call "virtualenv" and assume it is there; however in bringing up some rspec test for puppet I have hit this issue as some modules specify dependencies on the virtualenv packages. Thus install the python-virtualenv AND python3-virtualenv packages in this element. Change-Id: Ia84c38dc3c40a6080e144b563e10abca7dac2881
Image building tools for OpenStack
diskimage-builder
is a flexible suite of components for
building a wide-range of disk images, filesystem images and ramdisk
images for use with OpenStack.
This repository has the core functionality for building such images, both virtual and bare metal. Images are composed using elements; while fundamental elements are provided here, individual projects have the flexibility to customise the image build with their own elements.
For example:
$ DIB_RELEASE=trusty disk-image-create -o ubuntu-trusty.qcow2 vm ubuntu
will create a bootable Ubuntu Trusty based qcow2
image.
diskimage-builder
is useful to anyone looking to produce
customised images for deployment into clouds. These tools are the
components of TripleO that are
responsible for building disk images. They are also used extensively to
build images for testing OpenStack itself, particularly with nodepool.
Platforms supported include Ubuntu, CentOS, RHEL and Fedora.
