perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

[Phil Reese <>]

    Andy,
    
    Thanks, I really appreciate your attention to this niggly issue.
    
    However, I'm not sure we're out of the woods yet (though I might
    just be impatient and more updates may be bubbling through).  Your
    email and github issue focus on the nagios rpm.  Was that the only
    update needed?  
    
    If so, I'm still getting this:
    
    $ sudo dnf install maddash -y
    Last metadata expiration check: 0:32:04 ago on Wed 04 Oct 2023

    Error:
     Problem: conflicting requests
      - package maddash-5.0.5-1.el9.noarch from perfSONAR requires
    nagios-plugins-perfsonar, but none of the providers can be installed
      - package nagios-plugins-perfsonar-5.0.5-2.el9.x86_64 from
    perfSONAR requires python-pyjq, but none of the providers can be
    installed
      - nothing provides python3-pscheduler needed by
    nagios-plugins-perfsonar-5.0.5-1.el9.x86_64 from perfSONAR
      - nothing provides python(abi) = 3.9 needed by
    python-pyjq-2.4.0-2.el9.x86_64 from perfSONAR
    
    So far the only updates n the perfSONAR REPO list of RPMS are:
    nagios-plugins-perfsonar-5.0.5-2.el9.x86_64.rpm
    perl-Nagios-Plugin-0.36-1.el9.noarch.rpm
    
    If I need to just wait, great, I'll keep checking but if there is
    more todo I wanted to let you know soonest!
    
    Phil

Hi Phil,

New EL9 packages were uploaded that should fix the MaDDash install issue.

Thanks,
Andy

Hi Phil,

This only affects MaDDash’s on EL9. I ran into this while testing 5.0.5 packages and created an issue on it earlier this week: https://github.com/perfsonar/nagios/issues/22

Per the issue, there are two things in the nagios package that need fixing. One is just a difference in package naming between the OSes and is an easy fix in the spec. For the other it looks like we have to build perl(Nagios::Plugin) and any dependencies on our own for EL9. Didn’t want to block 5.0.5 on that, but will probably do a 5.0.5-2 of just those packages on EL9. Likely won’t be today but hopefully won’t leave you waiting too long.

Thanks,

Andy
