Error in prereqs.sh #829

Closed ruttkowa closed 3 years ago

ruttkowa commented 3 years ago

Describe the bug While running the prereqs.sh Script I encountered an error while installing the prerequisites

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. $ curl -sS -o prereqs.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cardano-community/guild-operators/master/scripts/cnode-helper-scripts/pr
  2. $ chmod 755 prereqs.sh3
  3. $ ./prereqs.sh
  4. Error: Unable to find a match: libsodium-devel srm An error occurred while installing the prerequisite packages, please investigate by using the command below: sudo yum -y install python3 coreutils pkgconfig libffi-devel gmp-devel openssl-devel ncurses-libs ncurses-compat-libs systemd systemd-devel libsodium-devel zlib-devel make gcc-c++ tmux git jq gnupg libtool autoconf srm iproute bc tcptraceroute dialog sqlite util-linux xz It would be best if you could submit an issue at https://github.com/cardano-community/guild-operators with the details to tackle in future, as some errors may be due to external/already present dependencies

Expected behavior A clear error message / docmentation which repository should be present

--> Looks like epel-release is needed. Either we should point to this in the docs or make it more clear during script runtime. Got it fixed with

yum -y install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-8.noarch.rpm 
sudo yum update

The yum repository management is a pre-requisite (Guild doco does not intend to go into setting up linux itself, they're part of SysOps) As regards epel-release, prereqs would try to install it if its available to your repo management, as you can see here

Well apparently the install didn‘t work on a RHEL 8 machine. Also - according to the current official quickstart documentation at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL#Quickstart the epel release should be added via URL not „epel-release“. Maybe this should be changed accordingly? Or am I missing something?
