Currently, Azure, vSphere, and OpenStack are supported. See
https://github.com/weldr/lorax/pull/826 for more details about this new
feature.
I've called the upload library "lifted" as a reference to Seuss'
The Lorax -- in the book, the Lorax lifts himself up by the seat of his
pants through a hole in the smog clouds, and they start calling him the
"Lifted Lorax."
This adds new features to the /compose route under API v1
We need to be root to read the certificates that give access to the
package repos. Right now, the alternative seems to be changing
permissions on the certs themselves, which seems less good. We're
running anaconda as root anyway.
Anaconda, Lorax, lorax-composer, and livemedia-creator can all now run
with SELinux in Enforcing mode. It does not need to be disabled and if
there are denials they should be reported as a bug.
Log the current state of SELinux when starting, update the
documentation.
Running lorax-composer --no-system-repos will prevent it from copying
the dnf repositories from /etc/yum.repos.d/ into the lorax-composer repo
directory. It will *only* use repositories setup using the sources api
or written to /var/lib/lorax/composer/repos.d/
If lorax-composer has previously been run without this switch the system
repos will need to be removed from the composer/repos.d/ directory. It
would also be a good idea to remove the cached metadata in
/var/tmp/composer/

Depending on how lorax-composer is run setting up an empty blueprints
directory can fail. So this moves checking/creation until after the
other directories are created and uses make_owned_dir to make sure
ownership is correct.
It needs to be root in order to set the ownership and permissions on the
directories that are under /var/lib/lorax/composer/
Refactor the directory creation into a utility function, and use a umask
of 0o006 to ensure that the parent directories created do not have o+rw
set on them (makedirs behavior is different between Python 3.6 and 3.7
so umask of 0 doesn't work consistently).
When the kickstart is handed off to Anaconda for building it will
download its own copy of the metadata and re-run the depsolve. So if the
dnf cache isn't current there will be a mismatch and the build will
fail to find some of the versions in final-kickstart.ks
This adds a new context to DNFLock, .lock_check, that will force a check
of the metadata. It also implements its own timeout and forces a
refresh of the metadata when that expires because the dnf expiration
doesn't always work as expected.

A value of 1 is too low for heavy users of the API, such as the weldr-web
interface.
This is also systemd's default for sockets it opens. Using lorax-composer with
socket activation already results in a backlog of SOMAXCONN connections.
A bad system repo can cause lorax-composer to fail to start. Instead of
a traceback log the error and exit.
(note that the exit still results in an OSError traceback due to part of
it running as root, this needs to be addressed in another commit).
Depsolve the packages included in the templates and report any errors
using the /api/status 'msgs' field. This should help narrow down
problems with package sources not being setup correctly.
