Not against teaching this to rpm-ostree directly, though worth mentioning another approach which doesn't require changing rpm-ostree at all is to just have an |

It would only download the new packages since the base packages are already cached. But yeah, it's not very clean. (E.g. in the developer case, we can't assume that the cache wasn't just nuked entirely). I think this is somewhat related to #442 too where we'll want to solve the exact same problem depsolve-wise (adding packages to a base). |
Ah wow, yes...not sure I'd want to rely on that.
Yeah. |
This adds support for a new `package-extensions` key in the treefile as well as a new `rpm-ostree compose extensions` command which takes a treefile and a base OSTree rev, performs a depsolve, and downloads the extensions to a provided output directory. This is intended to replace cosa's `download-extensions`: https://github.com/coreos/coreos-assembler/blob/master/src/download-extensions The major advantage here is that we have a guaranteed depsolve match and thus can avoid silly issues we've hit in RHCOS (like downloading the wrong `libprotobuf` for `usbguard` -- rhbz#1889694).

This adds support for a new `rpm-ostree compose extensions` command` which takes a treefile, a new extensions YAML file, and an OSTree repo and ref. It performs a depsolve and downloads the extensions to a provided output directory. This is intended to replace cosa's `download-extensions`: https://github.com/coreos/coreos-assembler/blob/master/src/download-extensions The input YAML schema matches the one accepted by that script. Some differences from the script: - We have a guaranteed depsolve match and thus can avoid silly issues we've hit in RHCOS (like downloading the wrong `libprotobuf` for `usbguard` -- rhbz#1889694). - We seamlessly re-use the same repos defined in the treefile, whereas the cosa script uses `reposdir=$dir` which doesn't have the same semantics (repo enablement is in that case purely based on the `enabled` flag in those repos, which may be different than what the rpm-ostree compose ran with). - We perform more sanity-checks against the requested extensions, such as whether the extension is already in the base. - We support no-change detection via a state SHA512 file for better integration in cosa and pipelines. - We support a `match-base-evr` key, which forces the extension to have the same EVR as the one from a base package: this is helpful in the case of extensions which complement a base package, esp. those which may not have strong enough reldeps to enforce matching EVRs by depsolve alone (`kernel-headers` is an example of this). - We don't try to organize the RPMs into separate directories by extension because IMO it's not at the right level. Instead, we should work towards higher-level metadata to represent extensions (see openshift/os#409 which is related to this). Closes: coreos#2055

As part of implementing coreos/fedora-coreos-tracker#401 I propose adding an
extensions
key to the manifest. It'd look like:Same semantics as the
packages
key.Then one would
rpm-ostree compose tree ... --output-package-extensions /path/to/dir
and we'd depsolve and download those packages plus the dependencies that aren't in the base tree into the output directory.It'd be up to higher level tooling (like coreos-assembler) to run
createrepo_c
etc. and manage them.The reason to add this to rpm-ostree is to handle the "depsolving from base tree" problem.
