Had to update the "latest" tag because this morning Rocky published ansible-5.4 and python38 which broke meza in the middle of a deploy.

rhel8-35.x branch as of 9b44a25 updates everything EXCEPT python and ansible.

rhel8-35.x as of commit 336c3c9 runs all the way to completion.

Here are the instructions to replicate.

• install Rocky 8.6 (can use kickstart file below to automate)
• Login as standard user
• Run the following commands

sudo git clone https://github.com/djflux/meza.git /opt/meza
cd /opt/meza
sudo git checkout rhel8-35.x
sudo bash /opt/meza/src/scripts/getmeza.sh
sudo meza deploy monolith

Provide hostname and database password (if desired) then wait about 15-45 minutes.

Need to test on a RHEL8 installation.

Kickstart files added into rhel8-35.x branch as of commit 84647b0

[djflux]

Had to update the "latest" tag because this morning Rocky published ansible-5.4 and python38 which broke meza in the middle of a deploy.

rhel8-35.x branch as of 9b44a25 updates everything EXCEPT python and ansible.

As of commit As of commit 03218f2 exclusions for python38 and ansible have been placed into the dnf/yum repo files in /etc/yum.repos.d by getmeza.sh on both Rocky and RHEL8. This change will allow ansible and python36 to be updated properly and also not update ansible to a version greater than 2.9.x.
