Hello all.
I am trying to install oVirt on Debian. So far I've managed to install
a good chunk of the dependencies.
Nice to see interest in getting oVirt on Debian! I'm adding Milan Zamal who
was looking into getting vdsm running on Debian.
However I haven't been able to
install otopi, ovirt-host-deploy, ovirt-js-dependencies,
ovirt-setup-lib since Debian has no packages for these. With the
exception of otopi (whose build instructions I was unable to make
sense of on GitHub),
everything else is to be gotten from Fedora/EPEL repos.
Please note that otopi is not supporting Debian yet.
It's missing support for the packaging system used by Debian. It currently
support only yum and dnf package managers.
Being ovirt-host-deploy and ovirt-setup-lib depending on otopi, you'll need
to work on otopi code first.
I had thought of using alien to convert from rpm to deb, but
apparently the recommended thing is to compile from source, since
using alien can lead to a complex version of dependency hell.
I can download WildFly from source, though again the recommended
procedure is to install ovirt-engine-wildfly and
ovirt-wildfly-overlay.
I would suggest to get in touch with Wildfly community about having wildfly
packaged for Debian.
Any assistance in tracking down the source code of the above packages
so that I can install them is appreciated.
