Can't install due to missing dependency package

[gavinltomra]

From OpenSUSE Leap 15.5 (with the Virtualization:Appliances:Builder repo added), I'm trying to run the following:

sudo zypper in python3-kiwi_boxed_plugin

But am met with:

Problem: 1: nothing provides 'python3-progressbar2' needed by the to be installed python3-kiwi_boxed_plugin-0.2.37-lp155.1.1.noarch
 Solution 1: do not install python3-kiwi_boxed_plugin-0.2.37-lp155.1.1.noarch
 Solution 2: break python3-kiwi_boxed_plugin-0.2.37-lp155.1.1.noarch by ignoring some of its dependencies

Oddly there does appear to be a matching package in the build system but it doesn't exist in the download repository. Is another repository required now too? I didn't find any info about this in the docs.

[gavinltomra]

So I instead tried:

sudo zypper in python3-pip
sudo pip3 install kiwi-boxed-plugin

And this installed, but on first attempt to actually run it, it just says:

[ INFO    ]: 03:21:01 | Reading box plugin config file: /usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/kiwi_boxed_plugin/config/kiwi_boxed_plugin.yml
[ ERROR   ]: 03:21:01 | KiwiBoxPluginConfigError: Failed to validate /usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/kiwi_boxed_plugin/config/kiwi_boxed_plugin.yml: {'box': [{4: [{'arch': [{3: [{'name': ['unallowed value ppc64le']}]}]}]}]}

Not sure why it's even looking at ppc64le; I was trying to use --box leap as per the docs.

Side note: following the pip install, kiwi-ng help reports that no man page was installed.

I'm also seeing this running from tumbleweed, using the version from Virtualization:Appliances:Builder repo

@gavinltomra Just a heads up, reverting back to v0.2.36 worked fine for me, if you're in a pinch and want a quick fix. I just rebuilt with osc locally and installed the resulting RPM, but you could do it a number of different ways.

[gavinltomra]

For the moment I've ended up using the version of Kiwi in the Leap 15.3 repository (without using the boxed plugin for now), because I kept getting weird package version conflicts between these and the Builder repo, despite me setting the Builder repo to a higher priority. It's working well enough, though it complains about BDB/NDB mismatches.

(I'm running Kiwi inside Docker, rather than using a box.)

KiwiBoxPluginConfigError: Failed to validate /usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/kiwi_boxed_plugin/config/kiwi_boxed_plugin.yml

@gavinltomra yes that was my fault, sorry for this one. It got fixed with commit #61dc5aa7

So you should not see this in v0.2.38 anymore

regarding the package dependency to the progressbar I build that package in Virtualization:Appliances:Builder but only for the following targets

openSUSE_Leap_15.5   x86_64     succeeded
openSUSE_Leap_15.5   aarch64    succeeded
openSUSE_Leap_15.5   ppc64le    succeeded
openSUSE_Leap_15.5   s390x      succeeded
ALP                  x86_64     succeeded

So you are saying we need it also for other distros ?

I guess this is solved

It's come back now (Leap 15.5 appliance builder repo):

Problem: 1: nothing provides 'python311-progressbar2' needed by the to be installed python311-kiwi_boxed_plugin-0.2.38-lp155.2.1.noarch
 Solution 1: do not install python311-kiwi_boxed_plugin-0.2.38-lp155.2.1.noarch
 Solution 2: break python311-kiwi_boxed_plugin-0.2.38-lp155.2.1.noarch by ignoring some of its dependencies

[schaefi]

Thanks, yeah the py3.11 stack in Leap had some side effects. I'm going to fix the packaging

[schaefi]

[ 22s] RPMS/noarch/python311-progressbar2-4.0.0-lp155.11.1.noarch.rpm

should be found now
