[spin-kickstarts] Fix fedora-install-fedora for new anaconda package selection.

commit bdd2e5cd074f6ad81deafc44ce373efc450d16a6 Author: Bill Nottingham <notting(a)redhat.com> Date: Mon Aug 27 17:20:18 2012 -0400 Fix fedora-install-fedora for new anaconda package selection. Anaconda package selection is determined by environments in the comps file which define environments to install, and groups that are options. Use those group lists, and drop individual packages since you can't select them anyway (outside of dracut/kernel). A few groups that are options for the workstation/development environment are commented out for space concerns.

spin-kickstarts branching?
by Bruno Wolff III 16 Aug '12

16 Aug '12

In the past we used to wait to branch spin-kickstarts until almost the next release. This was because it avoided having to do commits to two branches (in most cases) and with very little work being done specifically for the release past the next one. For F17 we did the branch close to when the release branched. It was anticipated that some F18 work would be going on before F17 was released. There didn't appear to be many issues as a result of this change. People seemed to remember to commit to both branches. Git makes this easier than perhaps it would have been under CVS. We did have one case where a merge of master back into F17 was done instead of cherry picking, but that wasn't too hard to fix. Given that background, what would people like to see happen for F18? I am slightly in favor of branching now, but if most want to wait until some F19 specific changes are needed, that would be OK with me.

Comps additions/changes for https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/ReworkPackageGroups
by Bill Nottingham 16 Aug '12

16 Aug '12

This is an annoucement/description for what's going to change in comps for: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/ReworkPackageGroups As you've noticed, the package selection screen has changed in anaconda - there is a list of choices to install on the left pane, and a list of options in the right pane. We want to describe these choices in comps. Here is how. The choices on the left side are called 'environments'. They are defined in comps like so: <environment> <id>gnome-desktop</id> <name>GNOME Desktop</name> <description>GNOME is a desktop.</description> <display_order>10</display_order> <grouplist> <groupid>base-x</groupid> <groupid>base</groupid> <groupid>core</groupid> <groupid>fonts</groupid> <groupid>input-methods</groupid> <groupid>admin-tools</groupid> <groupid>dial-up</groupid> <groupid>hardware-support</groupid> <groupid>printing</groupid> <groupid>graphical-internet</groupid> <groupid>gnome-desktop</groupid> </grouplist> <optionlist> <groupid>sound-and-video</groupid> <groupid>office</groupid> <groupid>eclipse</groupid> <groupid>games</groupid> <groupid>design-suite</groupid> <groupid>electronic-lab</groupid> </optionlist> </environment> Each environment has a grouplist that lists the groups that make up this enviroment - these are the required groups that will be installed if you select this environment. It also has a list of options for that environment, which are also groups in comps. Note that these groups do not need to have optional packages; there is no individual package selection in anaconda. Whenever an environment is selected in anaconda in the left pane, the right pane will be populated with: - the list of options for that environment in comps - any other user-visible groups in comps The latter is for compatibility with add-on repoitoriess that exist now. All the component groups of environments, and groups available as options, will be able to be installed with kickstart and/or yum post-install via @<name> syntax. Future work may be done in yum/kickstart to allow specifying environments directly. Patches are available for yum and anaconda for handling this; they should be built in the near future. What's left to change: - Addition/modification of groups in comps for enviroments/options - Addition of environment metadata in comps - (Potentially) removal of obsolete groups - (Potentially) changes of spin-kickstarts to refer to the new groups An example of the comps additions, with a few environments defined, is attached. These environments were based off of the live kickstarts. Bill

Install KS file not using rawhide
by Amit Saha 14 Aug '12

14 Aug '12

Hi, I just noticed that the fedora-install-fedora.ks [1] is not using rawhide repository, as it should be, right? I see that the others are using rawhide (for eg, fedora-live-base.ks). Or is it like that the Install DVD is built using against branched repos? [1] http://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/spin-kickstarts.git/tree/fedora-install-fe… Thanks, Amit -- http://echorand.me

JBoss Spin
by Gerard Ryan 12 Aug '12

12 Aug '12

Hi Spins SIG, I'm doing a Fedora JBoss Spin as my GSOC project at the moment. Most of my efforts so far have been in packaging stuff to put into the spin, and only recently has there started to be enough stuff to really call it a spin. I'm still waiting for a few packages to come through the review process before I will submit the spin for review/wrangling(?). If you want to have a look at what I've got so far, you can see the kickstart at [1]. Any comments or questions welcome, even flames: I've got pretty fire retardant skin! Once the spin is submitted for review, can stuff still be added to it, or what's the process for that? thanks Gerard.
