Hello,
Just upgraded from Cobbler 2.2.1-1 to 2.2.3-2 on RHEL58 x86_64, starting
cobblerd service gave the following error message;
Starting cobbler daemon: No module named ctypes
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/cobblerd", line 76, in main
api = cobbler_api.BootAPI(is_cobblerd=True)
File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/cobbler/api.py", line 127, in __init__
module_loader.load_modules()
File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/cobbler/module_loader.py", line 62, in
load_modules
blip = __import__("modules.%s" % ( modname), globals(), locals(),
[modname])
File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/cobbler/modules/authn_pam.py", line
53, in ?
from ctypes import CDLL, POINTER, Structure, CFUNCTYPE, cast, pointer,
sizeof
ImportError: No module named ctypes
If found the following about it;

After installing the package python-ctypes, cobblerd service started fine.
In the sandbox the same upgrade went fine, as this package was already
installed some time ago (dependency of func/smolt package).
So, should the dependency list op the rpm of Cobbler 2.2.3-2 (and onwards) be
updated with this package?
# rpm -qpR cobbler-2.2.3-2.el5.noarch.rpm
python >= 2.3
httpd
tftp-server
mod_wsgi
createrepo
python-cheetah
python-netaddr
python-simplejson
python-urlgrabber
PyYAML
rsync
mkisofs
yum-utils
/sbin/chkconfig
/sbin/chkconfig
/sbin/service
/bin/sh
/bin/sh
/bin/sh
rpmlib(PayloadFilesHavePrefix) <= 4.0-1
rpmlib(CompressedFileNames) <= 3.0.4-1
#
I tried to find the EPEL package maintainer for the cobbler packages but had no
luck.
