Sometimes an element needs packages installed so that it can perform tasks but those package are not appropriate for the final image content. Add a "build-only" flag to package-install-squash which will cause package to be installed at the beginning of the phase and then uninstalled at the end of the phase.

The package-installs element allows for a declarative method of installing and
|
|
uninstalling packages for an image build. This is done by creating a
|
|
package-installs.yaml or package-installs.json file in the element directory.
|
|
|
|
In order to work on Gentoo hosts you will need to manually install
|
|
`dev-python/pyyaml`.

Setting phase, uninstall, or installtype properties for a package overrides
|
|
the following default values::
|
|
|
|
phase: install.d
|
|
uninstall: False
|
|
installtype: * (Install package for all installtypes)
|
|
arch: * (Install package for all architectures)
|
|
dib_python_version: (2 or 3 depending on DIB_PYTHON_VERSION, see dib-python)
|
|
|
|
Setting the installtype property causes the package only to be installed if
|
|
the specified installtype would be used for the element. See the
|
|
diskimage-builder docs for more information on installtypes.
|
|
|
|
Setting ``build-only`` will cause the package to be added both to the
|
|
list of packages to be installed and to the list of packages to be
|
|
uninstalled. This allows expressing build-time dependencies that should
|
|
not end up in the final image.
|
|
|
|
The ``arch`` property is a comma-separated list of architectures to
|
|
install for. The ``not-arch`` is a comma-separated list of
|
|
architectures the package should be excluded from. Either ``arch`` or
|
|
``not-arch`` can be given for one package - not both. See
|
|
documentation about the ARCH variable for more information.
|
|
|
|
The ``when`` property is a simple ``=`` or ``!=`` match on a value in
|
|
an environment variable. If the given environment variable matches
|
|
the operation and value, the package is installed. If the variable is
|
|
not available in the environment, an exception is raised (thus
|
|
defaults will likely need to be provided in ``environment.d`` files or
|
|
similar for flags used here). For example, to install an extra
|
|
package when a feature is enabled::
|
|
|
|
package:
|
|
when: DIB_FEATURE_FLAG=1
|
|
|
|
To install ``package`` when ``DIB_FEATURE_FLAG=0`` but
|
|
``other_package`` when ``DIB_FEATURE_FLAG=1`` (i.e. toggle between two
|
|
packages), you can use something like::
|
|
|
|
package:
|
|
when: DIB_FEATURE_FLAG=0
|
|
other_package:
|
|
when: DIB_FEATURE_FLAG!=0
|
|
|
|
DEPRECATED: Adding a file under your elements pre-install.d, install.d, or
|
|
post-install.d directories called package-installs-<element-name> will cause
|
|
the list of packages in that file to be installed at the beginning of the
|
|
respective phase. If the package name in the file starts with a "-", then
|
|
that package will be removed at the end of the install.d phase.
|
|
|
|
Using post-install.d for cleanup
|
|
================================
|
|
|
|
Package removal is done in post-install.d at level 95. If you a
|
|
running cleanup functions before this, you need to be careful not
|
|
to clean out any temporary files relied upon by this element.
|
|
For this reason, generally post-install cleanup functions should
|
|
occupy the higher levels between 96 and 99.
