This commit adds a stderr_to_stdout option to Command.run method to
redirect stderr to stdout.
Additionally this commit also includes to the debug log the dracut
call output, including both, stderr and stdout.
Fixes#1114
This commit extends the bootstrap macro management to also consider
the case where image was already bootstrap. Note this is a common case
for building derived container images and also the situation when
`--allow-existing-root` flag is in use.
The method checked for the presence of /usr/bin/rpm. But
that binary is also provided by another toolkit named
busybox. Thus to check if the rpm we are aiming for is
present the check has been modified to look for /usr/bin/rpmdb
which is exclusively provided by rpm only. This Fixes#1037
@classmethod are used in Python to represent methods that can
query and update the class (cls parameter). Is expected to be
used for metaprograming, or advanced techniques that require the
access to the class itself, before we have an instance.
@staticmethod are used to associate a function to a class. It will
not be have access to the instance (self) not the class (cls). In
other programming languages are known as class methods.
This patch replace all the @classmethod with @staticmethod when
there is not need to access to the cls parameter, because the
intention is to be used as normal functions.
In reference to bsc#1112357 it was required to add the compat
symlink /var/lib/rpm such that zypper can read the signing
keys. Unfortunately zypper does not use the configured rpmdb
from the rpm macro setup.
During the image build the custom rpm macro %_install_langs
is configured with the <locale> setup from the KIWI XML
description. This allows to filter language specific packages
on the rpm level and Fixes#771
The location of the rpm database is no longer a standard
path one can trust. Some distributions put it to /var/lib
others to /usr/lib. This introduces the problem of dealing
with different locations between the bootstrapping (host rpm)
phase and the image installation (image rpm) phase.
This commit implements a solution based on an intermediate
rpm database configuration. KIWI creates the macros.kiwi file
inside of the image root which is read by any call of rpm
in the inner and outer system. During bootstrap phase the
rpm dbpath from the host system is used and later in the
install phase the dbpath from the rpm package as it was
installed by the target image distribution is used. In case
of a dbpath difference the database is automatically moved
to the new location by setting the _dbpath_rebuild macro
to the correct location. At the end the custom KIWI macro
is deleted.
As this process allows custom macro defintions during the
KIWI run it also serves as the base for a solution to
Issue #771 which will be done in a follow up request to
this commit.
Also the workaround for bsc#1112357 which uses a static
dbpath to store an optionally given signing key will be
addressed with this commit. The macro setup happens before
the import_trusted_keys method which makes any specification
for a strict dbpath obsolete.
Last the implementation deletes the obsolete
dump_reload_package_database code. rpm is able to automatically
do the conversion of different db versions such that the code
in kiwi is obsolete. In addition that code only worked for
rather old db versions. The public API has not changed though,
but the method is marked obsolete and does nothing anymore.
In addition to the deletion of obsolete code a new API
method post_process_install_requests_bootstrap has been
introduced to handle actions required after bootstrap
and before installing of packages from inside the new image
In case of a literal decoding failure it tries to decode
the result in utf-8. This is handy in python2 environments where
python and the host might be using different charset configurations.
In python3 this issue seams to be solved.

* Use systemd-firstboot in order config basic settings
This commit updates locale and keyboard settings in order to make
use of the systemd tools, as this will be the only valid method starting
from SLE15.
Fixes#577
* Added CommandCapabilities utils class
This commit includes a post build constraint validation into the
Result class. With this commit any file included to the result
tuple is verified not to exceed the maximum size configured into
the runtime configuration file config.yml.
Fixes#468
If the checksum should be created from a compressed file
it is expected that the checksum of the uncompressed file
is added to the checksum file. This is because in a pxe
deployment the uncompressed version of the file is put
on disk and compared with the reference information in
the checksum file
Allow to list information about the image description.
In a first implementation one can show the image name
as well as run a dependency resolution for the packages
listed in the XML description
The configuration files /etc/sysconfig/bootloader and
/etc/default/grub needs to be created/updated with the
relevant values regarding the bootloader setup done by
kiwi. This Fixes#226
The method target_supports_extended_attributes() checks if the
sync target directory supports extended filesystem attributes.
The method is called on sync_data() and will remove the -X / -A
options if provided. A warning message is issued to the caller
if the rsync option list has changed because of the underlaying
filesystem limitations
