Install on Centos 7 fails at CherryPy

[ChadMac]

Error is : Package: kimchi-1.4.1-1.el7.centos.noarch (okay) Requires: python-cherrypy >= 3.2.0

Also installed CherryPy and installer still errors.

Hi @ChadMac ! Did you install python-cherrypy >= 3.2.0? Which version are you using?

Hi @alinefm,

same problem here on centos 7 with EPEL. There is only cherrypy 2.3.0 available as package (from EPEL):

I don't see cherrypy in the requirements page, are you using it only as a web server? If so maybe don't require it in the rpm?

I also can't seem to find the .spec file for the rpm, could you please provide that?

[alinefm]

Hi @mrflow,

Hrm... we should update the spec file to update that. Usually, the Kimchi community do tests on Fedora23 and RHEL7.

I verified on EPEL repository and the only package found is that you pointed (https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/7/x86_64/repoview/python-cherrypy2.html)

But I have a RHEL7.1 system which has the required package installed and seems it came from EPEL.

[root@rhel-vm ~]# yum info python-cherrypy-3.2.2-4.el7.noarch Loaded plugins: langpacks, product-id, rhnplugin, subscription-manager There was an error communicating with RHN. Red Hat Satellite or RHN Classic support will be disabled. Error communicating with server.

Hi @JGjorgji,

Cherrypy is used as a reverse proxy by Wok. The dependency is properly listed in the README file: https://github.com/kimchi-project/wok/blob/master/docs/README.md#install-dependencies

Kimchi spec file can be found at: https://github.com/kimchi-project/kimchi/tree/master/contrib Wok spec file can be found at: https://github.com/kimchi-project/wok/tree/master/contrib

Ok so i think the problem is that it used to be in epel but it is now retired in the meantime since it's now provided by Redhat in RHEL 7.2 and not epel. We'll have to wait for Centos 7.2 to land, I'm building a newer version from the fedora srpm's to try in the meantime.

@alinefm and the rest:

The package is no longer hosted in EPEL [1], since it is included in RHEL 7.2. So most probably it will also be included in CentOS 7.2

1: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/package/python-cherrypy/

You can still manually install the latest build that was included in EPEL from here:

http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=489389

Then most probably you will get future updates directly from the CentOS repository.
