We build RPMs for RHEL-based distributions and make them available through dnf/yum. The repo files are available at:
- RHEL RPMs: https://cern.ch/xrootd/xrootd.repo
- Fedora RPMs: https://cern.ch/xrootd/xrootd-fedora.repo
For example, to use the official repository on Alma 9, one can fetch the repository with:
curl -L https://cern.ch/xrootd/xrootd.repo -o /etc/yum.repos.d/xrootd.repo
Each of these repo files define three repositories: xrootd-stable, which
contains stable releases, xrootd-testing, which tracks the devel branch
upstream, and xrootd-source, which provides the source RPMs to allow one to
download sources and patches for a release and build/rebuild custom RPMs
locally. By default, only the main xrootd-stable repository and the
xrootd-source repository for the sources are enabled. All RPMs on these
repositories are signed with the following GPG key:
- XRootD Developers (RPM Signing Key) xrootd-dev@slac.stanford.edu
- Fingerprint:
B3D5 6D10 62CA 39A5 92CD 70EA E07D BF0E FD32 3FF0 - From: https://xrootd.web.cern.ch/repo/RPM-GPG-KEY.txt
Once the official RPM repository is configured, it is possible to download the latest source RPMs and rebuild it locally with yum/dnf as shown below:
CentOS 7
yum install -y yum-utils
yumdownloader --source xrootd
sudo yum install -y centos-release-scl epel-release rpmdevtools
rpmdev-setuptree
sudo yum-builddep -y xrootd-*.src.rpm # the file just downloaded
rpmbuild --rebuild --without tests xrootd-*.src.rpm
or, on Alma 9
dnf install dnf-plugins-core
dnf download --source xrootd
sudo dnf install -y epel-release rpmdevtools
sudo dnf config-manager --set-enabled crb # or powertools on Alma 8
rpmdev-setuptree
sudo dnf builddep -y xrootd-*.src.rpm # the file just downloaded
rpmbuild --rebuild --without tests xrootd-*.src.rpm
There are two main methods for building RPMs using the xrootd.spec file at
the root of the XRootD git repository. If you just would like to build the
latest release, the steps are as shown below (using Alma 9 as example):
curl -L https://github.com/xrootd/xrootd/raw/master/xrootd.spec -o xrootd.spec
sudo dnf install -y epel-release rpmdevtools dnf-plugins-core # install pre-requisites
sudo dnf config-manager --set-enabled crb # enable crb repository by default
rpmdev-setuptree # create ~/rpmbuild and subdirectories
sudo dnf builddep -y xrootd.spec # install XRootD build dependencies
spectool -g -R xrootd.spec # download upstream source tarball
rpmbuild -bb --without tests xrootd.spec # build RPMs
sudo dnf install -y ~/rpmbuild/RPMS/*/*.rpm # install RPMs
Note that most steps can be performed as a regular user, only installation of
dependencies needs to be done as root.
The other method allows to build RPMs for the currently checked out git branch.
In this case, we should produce a tarball ourselves, and then use --with git
to build:
git clone https://github.com/xrootd/xrootd
cd xrootd
rpmdev-setuptree
git archive --prefix xrootd/ -o $(rpm -E '%{_sourcedir}')/xrootd.tar.gz HEAD
sudo dnf builddep -y xrootd.spec
rpmbuild -bb --with git xrootd.spec
sudo dnf install -y ~/rpmbuild/RPMS/*/*.rpm
This is the method used in the continuous integration system to build RPMs. The versions created when building in this mode are based on the last tag, the number of commits that come after it, and a git hash corresponding to the last commit in the branch.
We build official DEB packages for Debian and Ubuntu distributions. If you would like to use our repositories to get more recent versions of XRootD on your distribution, please see below how to enable it.
First, the GPG key used to sign the repositories needs to be installed, to
allow apt to trust our repository. We sign the DEB packages with the same
key used for RPMs. To install it, simply download the public key and place
it into /etc/apt/trusted.gpd.d/:
curl -L https://xrootd.web.cern.ch/repo/RPM-GPG-KEY.txt -o /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/xrootd.asc
Note that the extension .asc is important here. If you do not use this
extension, apt may try to process the key as binary instead of ASCII armored
text.
Next, you need to choose the right repository URL and component to use. We
provide repositories for Debian 11 (bullseye), Debian 12 (bookworm), Ubuntu
22.04 (jammy), and Ubuntu 24.04 (noble). Similarly to our RPM repositories, we
offer two repositories: stable and testing. The stable repository (i.e.
the apt component) contains XRootD stable releases and should be the preferred
option. The testing repository contains development versions of XRootD based
on the devel branch from git. To setup the repository on Debian 12, using the
stable component, you can run
echo "deb https://xrootd.web.cern.ch/debian bookworm stable" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/xrootd.list
On Ubuntu 24.04, run the following instead
echo "deb https://xrootd.web.cern.ch/ubuntu noble stable" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/xrootd.list
Depending on the distribution, you may need to use the file /etc/apt/sources.list
instead of using the directory /etc/apt/sources.list.d. Nevertheless, the line to
be added is the same as in the command above.
Once the repository is setup, one can install the packages as usual:
apt update
apt install xrootd-client xrootd-server python3-xrootd
Starting with XRootD 5.7.0, the official repositories also offer a metapackage
xrootd which will install both xrootd-client and xrootd-server together.
XRootD uses GitHub Actions and GitLab CI for continuous integration. Incremental builds are accessible on each of these platforms at the links below:
-
GitHub Actions: https://github.com/xrootd/xrootd/actions
-
GitLab CI: https://gitlab.cern.ch/dss/xrootd/pipelines
Build artifacts can be downloaded from the links above for a short period before they expire. If you have a fork of XRootD, the builds to create DEB/RPM packages can also be run on demand. Please see the link below for instructions on how to do that:
