@ -15,35 +15,16 @@ We'll need to do five basic tasks:
5) Sanity check the tree
Gathering Packages
Using yumdownloader / reposync like code in combination with a comps file
makes sense here. We can define what we want at the top level and let yum
depsolve the rest. The tricky bits here are figuring out multilib stuff and
the uglyness that is noarch packages with ExcludeArch/ExclusiveArch crack.
We could skip over this by assuming that repos will exist that are pre-
populated with multilib/noarch safe packages and we just pull whats there.
There is some code in the Extras push scripts. See also yum/comps.py for
dealing with comps.
See gather/PLAN
Running Anaconda Tools
These should be ran on the release it is releasing. This means using mock
in some way, either make mock a req of the tool and the tool calls mock
or allowing the tool to run in userspace but suggest the tool get ran in
a mock call. Some cooperation will need to happen with the anaconda folks
to make sure we're moving in the same direction they are wrt the tools we
would use.
See pungi/PLAN
Split Tree Into CD Size Chunks
This will be a fun task. Really, I mean it. Anaconda folks have made some
noise about making buildinstall take a flag to make CDs and do all the
splitting itself. That would be handy, but it may not happen by the time
we need to do this. Perhaps work on this part last, focus on the
installable tree stuff.
See pungi/PLAN
Create Isos of the Chunks
This is a pretty straightforward call to mkisofs. There are some fun things
to consider when making isos for ppc(64) and possibly other arches that may
come to play. Code here will need to be somewhat modular to allow for
different mkisofs calls per arch.
See pungi/PLAN
Sanity Check the Tree
This could/should be an ever growing set of post-tree build sanity checks.

gather/ is the module for repoclosing and downloading a set of packages.
pungi/ is the module for running anaconda tools against a set of packages

functionality of the code.
Making it all happen
There really is space for two tools, or something inbetween. There is the
task of creating a repo of packages multilibbed up. Think rawhide. The

ROADMAP
a) Create repodata for the package sets, using comps
b) Run buildinstall
c) Run pkgorder
d) Run splittree
a) Run buildinstall
Pretty straight forward. Needs to be ran on arch specific chroots so
mock may be involved, if this entire process isn't. THere is some talk
of making stage2 type stuff a package itself, so that we don't have to
create it at compose time. This will cut down the necessary packages
for building a tree and time it would take.
b) Run pkgorder
Again, pretty straight forward
c) Run splittree
Gets more tricky here, have to know disk sizes before hand. Should noop if
isos are not requested.
d) Create Isos
There are some arch specific calls here, but doesn't have to be ran ON the
different arches. Should be able to opt out of this task.
CONSIDERATIONS
QUESTIONS
How much of the tree layout do we hardcode, and how much do we allow to be
configurable?
do we make isos here or somewhere else?

This dir holds files useful for testing functionality.
comps.xml - A fairly minimal comps that includes enough to create an
installable tree and a bootable system.
yum.conf.[i386,x86_64] - Yum configs that point to arch specific location.
(needed as $basearch is resolved from the host OS)
