I have problem with uploading info about packages to spacewalk. Spacewalk
accepts only some types of architectures, problem is accepting
architecture "all",
because spacewalk knows only equivalent "noarch".
I see 2 possible solutions:
- change type of architecture from "all" to "noarch" before uploading
- patch spacewalk to accept architecture "all"
Can you help me choose the better solution?
Change of all to noarch will be very easy, but I think it will bite us
later.
Patching spacewalk to accept architecture of all is IMO propper way.
I gave it 5 minutes to study and it seems there will be no need to
change the code (at least backend) and it should be enough to only
insert few rows to some tables.
According to my findings it should be enough to insert new rows into
rhnChannelPackageArchCompat.sql
new row to
rhnPackageArch
with reference to lookup_arch_type('rpm'), which means new row in
rhnArchType
new row to:
rhnServerPackageArchCompat
And if we gave debian systems new server_arch, like solaris have we we
only enable to use all architecture for debian systems and not for rpm
systems.
I would vote for i386-debian-linux and amd64-debian-linux and so on.
