Can't install virtio-win with EL7.7/Ovirt-4.3.8 -- rpm error
Hi, I was trying to install the virtio-win package, but it gives an error: ERROR You need to update rpm to handle: rpmlib(PayloadIsZstd) <= 5.4.18-1 is needed by virtio-win-0.1.173-6.noarch Is this a known problem with current 4.3.x and EL7.7? -derek -- Derek Atkins 617-623-3745 derek@ihtfp.com www.ihtfp.com Computer and Internet Security Consultant
Hello, I've got the same behavior on oVirt 4.3.8.2-1.el7 running on CentOS 7.7.1908. Thanks. On Thu, Feb 6, 2020 at 1:01 PM Derek Atkins <derek@ihtfp.com> wrote:

Is this a known problem with current 4.3.x and EL7.7?

Same problem. Looks like the virtio rpm is now built with the new compression method, but rpm for EL7 hasn't been updated to support it.
Forwarding this to virtio-win developers and packagers. Notice that virtio-win is a package in Fedora/Centos/RHEL and it is not an "ovirt/RHV" package so ovirt doesn't package it. On Sun, Feb 9, 2020 at 4:59 AM <eshwayri@gmail.com> wrote:

I worked around this problem by building a current version of rpm (4.15.1) from source. I prefixed the build to /usr/local, with the exception of var which I pointed to the system rpm db. The versions were close enough that I figured there was no major schema difference. I used the updated rpm command to manually install virt-win, then updated everything else with the normal system rpm. I thought of upgrading the system to the new version of rpm, looking at the installed rpm's SPEC file, there are many patches over the stock code. I don't have the time to go through and figure out which patches are minor fixes, and which may make major changes to the way rpm works on RedHat/CentOS. I decided I didn't want to introduce something that could cause me more problems in the future, especially not for a single package. I am concerned this type of problem may spread as more people build rpms that use the new compression method. RPMs that are supposed to be shared among EL6/EL7/EL8 should probably just use the old compression method for compatibility. Alternatively, the new compression method could be back-ported/enabled for the entire family if there is a desire to consolidate everything; seems excessive, but certainly possible. Just my 2c. -Edmond On Sun, Feb 9, 2020 at 3:20 AM Gal Zaidman <gzaidman@redhat.com> wrote:

Thanks for the cc Gal. Latest published virtio-win RPMs, 0.1.173-7, are back to using xz compression now. Seems like the new compression got picked up automatically by building on Fedora 31. Thanks, Cole On 2/9/20 3:20 AM, Gal Zaidman wrote:
