Make Gentoo package updates work more often
Some package updates are more complex and require things like --backtrack=99 to
be passed to emerge.  We also try harder to ensure the system is in a consistent
state as a last step.

0ff40cf63c Turn off strict_id mode for Ec2 datasource
Recent changes in the default configuration of cloud-init in Ubuntu
cause warnings when the Ec2 datasource is used on non-Amazon clouds,
see https://bugs.launchpad.net/cloud-init/+bug/1660385

We explicitly select the previous behavior when an Ec2 datasource is
desired.

7a962e9d1c Skip python3-virtualenv on <= trusty
If DIB_PYTHON_VERSION is < 3 on the !redhat path, that means we're on
an older platform that may not have python3-virtualenv packages.  Skip
install.

Ensure the order of operations happens by forcing the installs

Also add a note about limited platform support (patches welcome :)

79d4113cbe pip-and-virtualenv : install python2 & 3, and default to 2
Recent changes in project-config have shown that we leave the system
in an inconsistent state when installing from source.  On fedora, we
will have installed the python2 packages, but then used $DIB_PYTHON to
install python3 pip from source!

This tries to clarify the situation.  As described in the document,
with package installs, we just install the $DIB_PYTHON packaged
versions.

Source installs want to take over the global namespace.  This is the
price you pay for running the latest versions outside package managers
:) The only sane thing seems to be for us to normalise python2 &
python3 versions of pip, setuptools and virtualenv and then hacking
things such that "/usr/bin/pip" and "/usr/bin/virtalenv" remain
defaulted to python2 versions.

Documentation is added

ffd4820d59 Install pip with python interpreter
Currently we install pip/virtualenv with "/usr/local/bin/dib-python".
This means that every time you create a virtualenv, the python
interpreter inside it is called "dib-python" which is confusing.

Add an env var DIB_PYTHON that points directly the to interpreter
available during build, for use when running scripts.

1778fb57db Clean out apt index caches at end of image build
Apt gets confused if it talks to a mirror with an older index than the
index currently cached by apt. This can happen when image builds use a
newer index than the booted image. Avoid these problems entirely by
removing those index caches at the end of image building.

f068e6aa6e Fix package-installs-v2 output
The current output for package-installs-v2 is inscrutable [1]

The problem starts with process_output() which is not capturing
stderr.  This means that any stderr output is dislocated from any
stdout output around it.  This is *really* confusing as you get a
bunch of seemingly meaningless stderr output from any calls before you
see any stdout (e.g. in [1] you can see random yum error output that
should have been with the yum call)).  The simplest thing to do is to
redirect stderr to stdout which keeps everything in sync.

This causes a slight problem, however, because pkg-map outputs both
status information and errors on stderr.  To work around this but
maintain compatibility, we add a "--prefix" argument that prepends
mapped packages from pkg-map with a value we can match on.  The
existing status/debug output from pkg-map is low-value; modify the
call so that it will be traced only at higher debug levels (e.g. -x
-x).

The current loop is also calling pkg-map for every package in every
element (this is why in [1] the same message is repeated over and
over).  This is unnecessary; it only needs to pkg-map once for each
element, giving the package list as the arguments.  Create package
lists by element and pass those to pkg-map.

As a cleanup, there is no point in printing e.output if the
process_output fails for the install because we are already tracing
it; i.e. the output, even for failures, is already in the logs.
Printing it again just duplicates the output.

[2] is an extract showing what I feel is a much more understandable
log output for a fairly complex install.

6802cf7100 Run dib-run-parts out of /tmp
The dib-run-parts element was copying our internal version of
dib-run-parts into /usr/local/bin to be used running scripts inside
the target chroot.  However, it never cleaned up after itself.  This
means all images were left with an unmanaged local install of
dib-run-parts.

This copies dib-run-parts into the hooks directory of the chroot and
runs it from there.  It is cleaned up automatically on the exit path.

The dib-run-parts element is no longer required and it has been
removed from all dependencies.  It is left with a deprecation notice
in the README.  For compatability we convert it to simply install
dib-utils.

Codesearch shows no users depending on this unintentional implicit
install.  Note os-refresh-config depends on dib-utils and thus will
have an explicitly installed version.

fd424757a6 Don't provide dib-run-parts
It was an oversight during v2 development for dib to start providing
dib-run-parts.  The intention was for dib to use a vendored
dib-run-parts directly from $_LIB and have no dependencies on
dib-utils at all.  By exporting dib-run-parts, we created an
unintentional conflict with the dib-utils package which provides the
same script.

Tools that depend on dib-utils are unaffected by this
(os-refresh-config).

The only tool that installs diskimage-builder and then assumes
dib-run-parts is available in the path is instack.  I have proposed
Ibfe972208df40fa092b11b5419043524c903f1b4 to modify that to use our
internal version.

1bdeaadc95 Fix opensuse-minimal element on non-SUSE hosts
zypper on non-suse hosts is not parsing the pattern repodata because
those are marked as an inofficial extension to the repomd specification.
This is not a big issue as there is meanwhile in newer openSUSE
distributions a pattern *package* that depends on the same packages like
the pattern would do, so we can just replace it with that.

When a glean is running on centos with multiple NICs, it will try to

4d4417c9a6 Use correct Ubuntu distro url on non-x86 arches
diskimage-builder usually provides defaults that work out of the box.
One default that does not work outside of x86 land is Ubuntu distro
mirror url. Considering there are only two valid default options, we can
automatically choose a better default.

This patch changes behavior only for architectures known to be using
http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports. All others still would use
http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu as default. It provides some guarantee
that we do not introduce a regression.

76ae374413 functests: skip qcow2 generically but add specific test
We somewhat discussed skipping qcow2 generation previously in
I9372e195913798a851c96e62eee89029e067baa1.  As recent issues with PPC
testing have shown, we are not actually testing the "vm" element and
hence the bootloader path in the functional tests.

I don't think we need to test this on every element; it overlaps
somewhat with the testing done by the nodepool jobs which build full
images and boot them.  I also didn't want to introduce a separate run
for this.  Thus it seems valuable to at least have one element
enhanced to do this installation and conversion in our default tests
for basic sanity.

This disables qcow generation by default, as per the other change, but
allows an element to drop a file that will override the output
formats.  The Xenial element is modified to produce a qcow2 using
this, and also introduces a dependency on the "vm" element so it tries
to install the bootloader.

We now exit if the .qcow2 fails to build as well.

fdd2c4b236 Semi-automatic doc generation of element dependency
Currently there is no description of dependencies in the generated
documentation of the elements: therefore a user of an element does not
know which other elements are automatically included and e.g. which
configuration options are available. In addition there are some
copy&pastes of parts of the README.rst scattered thought different
Ubuntu and Debian specific elements.

This patch adds a semi-automatic generation of dependency information
of all elements.  Nevertheless these are not automatically included.
The author of the element's README.rst can decide if and where the
dependency information should appear and can use the descriptor

.. element_deps::

for this.

This patch adds the dependency information for some Debian and
Ubuntu patches - and creates the base for later removing the
duplicated parts.

A call is added to element_dependencies._find_all_elements() to
populate reverse dependencies for Element objects.

ec7f56c1b2 Refactor: block-device handling (partitioning)
During the creation of a disk image (e.g. for a VM), there is the need
to create, setup, configure and afterwards detach some kind of storage
where the newly installed OS can be copied to or directly installed
in.

This patch implements partitioning handling.

d65678678e Move dib-run-parts into diskimage-builder
Move dib-run-parts from dib-utils into diskimage-builder directly.

For calling outside the chroot, we provide a standard entry-point
script.  However, as noted in the warning comment, the underlying
script is still copied directly into the chroot by the dib-run-parts
element.  I believe this to be the KISS approach.

This removes the dependency on dib-utils.  We have discussed this
previously and nobody seemed to think retiring dib-utils was going to
be an issue.

This also updates the documentation to not mention dib-utils, or using
disk-image-create via $PATH setup, but rather gives instructions on
installing from pip with a virtualenv.

97c01e48ed Move elements & lib relative to diskimage_builder package
Currently we have all our elements and library files in a top-level
directory and install them into
<root>/share/diskimage-builder/[elements|lib] (where root is either /
or the root of a virtualenv).

The problem with this is that editable/development installs (pip -e)
do *not* install data_files.  Thus we have no canonical location to
look for elements -- leading to the various odd things we do such as a
whole bunch of guessing at the top of disk-image-create and having a
special test-loader in tests/test_elements.py so we can run python
unit tests on those elements that have it.

data_files is really the wrong thing to use for what are essentially
assets of the program.  data_files install works well for things like
config-files, init.d files or dropping documentation files.

By moving the elements under the diskimage_builder package, we always
know where they are relative to where we import from.  In fact,
pkg_resources has an api for this which we wrap in the new
diskimage_builder/paths.py helper [1].

We use this helper to find the correct path in the couple of places we
need to find the base-elements dir, and for the paths to import the
library shell functions.

Elements such as svc-map and pkg-map include python unit-tests, which
we do not need tests/test_elements.py to special-case load any more.
They just get found automatically by the normal subunit loader.

I have a follow-on change (I69ca3d26fede0506a6353c077c69f735c8d84d28)
to move disk-image-create to a regular python entry-point.

Unfortunately, this has to move to work with setuptools.  You'd think
a symlink under diskimage_builder/[elements|lib] would work, but it
doesn't.

[1] this API handles stuff like getting files out of .zip archive
modules, which we don't do.  Essentially for us it's returning
__file__.
