Hey,
IIUIC host-deploy is currently installing some packages manually:
https://gerrit.ovirt.org/gitweb?p=ovirt-host-deploy.git;a=blob;f=src/plugins...
Can't these dependencies moved to vdsm - or if not - can't they be moved to a ovirt-host package? Then we'd have all package related informations in one place.
I find it odd that host-deploy is taking care of package installation, imo it should be sufficient to install a single package and have a host ready.
host-deploy can then focus on just configuring the existing packages.
Thoughts?
Everything that vdsm requires should be explicitly expressed in vdsm.spec. vdsm-cli not being their was a bug. If there's anything else missing, it should be added.
However, we may have softer requirement: qemu-kvm-tool is nice to have for deep debugging, but not reallly necessary. In the future, I'd like ovirt-host-deploy to conditionally not pull iscsi packages if the datacenter does not require it. Thus I prefer keeping things as they are, even though it means that ovirt-node largely duplicates the list of packages from ovirt-host-deploy.
Just a reminder that ovirt-host-deploy is not installed on the target host, it's just executed there through ssh after having it copied there as a tarball. So the installation of the packages can't be done in a different manner. On Node, you should have ovirt-host-deploy-offline installed: it should pull in all needed deps without installing anything else "manually".
