perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

[Matthew Woodward <>]

Got the Net-Install ISO up on a VM. Tried to install SaltStack Minion 
via yum but am running into a conflict.

Perfsonar seems to rely on the "python-Jinja2" version 2.8 package, 
while SaltStack-Minion requires "python-jinja2" version 2.7 package. 
(Note that these are named slightly differently. The one has a capital 
"J" in Jinja, while the other has a lowercase "j" in jinja. Also, the 
version 2.8 package comes from "a-Internet2-staging" repo, while the 
other comes from "base/7/x86_64" repo.)

Since 2.8 is already installed, I'm running into a conflict in getting 
the 2.7 jinja2 dependency installed for the SaltStack Minion.

Does Perfsonar require version 2.8? Can I safely downgrade to 2.7?

Any guidance on this would be helpful.

Cheers,

- Matt
