Use devel client tools when applicable #717

Open mbologna opened 4 years ago

mbologna commented 4 years ago

Introduce a configuration parameter to allow the usage of devel client tools on top of the released/beta client tools (devel tools must have higher priority than regular client tools) in automated/testing deployments.

Via Salt in sumaform:

Good point!

This could be a problem ATM. Do we allow vendor change at Uyuni/SUSE Manager? Because SUSE is the vendor for Releaded and Beta client tools, while IBS Devel:Galaxy is the vendor for the Devel client tools.

NOTE: That's only when sumaform deploys SUSE Manager. For Uyuni both Devel and Stable client tools have the same provider.

Yes, we allow equivalent vendors that include SUSE (only for SUSE Manager), OpenSUSE, and Devel:Galaxy :

Good to know.

Then we don't really need to worry about <version.release>, at least for SLE and RES/RHEL/CentOS/Oracle.

The Head projects for such clients have:

Release: 401.<CI_CNT>.<B_CNT>.develHead

And at 4.0:

Release: 400.<CI_CNT>.<B_CNT>.devel40

So release should always be greater, even when version is the same.

Ubuntu could be another story, however. We don't have this, and I don't know if it will work. I will try tomorrow.
