Ian Wienand 5bd8158862 Target map-packages deprecation message Currently every run of install-packages puts out a warning that map-packages is obsolete. This happens even if map-package does no mapping. The caller can't prevent the call (it's part of install-packages) and it gives no actionable help if there is something wrong. Keep track of any mappings we are doing in the obsolete map-packages run and only output a warning if we actually translate anything. If we do output, tell the caller what packages were translated so they can make appropriate pkg-map entries. Change-Id: Ibfe69dc84246662ed8caa0d4c3e2edf68314c87e		2017-02-07 15:44:51 +11:00

=============
redhat-common
=============
Image installation steps common to RHEL, CentOS, and Fedora.

Requirements:

If used to build an image form a cloud image compress with xz
(the default in centos), this element uses "unxz" to decompress
the image. Depending on your distro you may need to install either
the xz or xz-utils package.

Environment Variables
---------------------

DIB_LOCAL_IMAGE
  :Required: No
  :Default: None
  :Description: Use the local path of a qcow2 cloud image. This is useful in
   that you can use a customized or previously built cloud image from
   diskimage-builder as input. The cloud image does not have to have been built
   by diskimage-builder. It should be a full disk image, not just a filesystem
   image.
  :Example: ``DIB_LOCAL_IMAGE=rhel-guest-image-7.1-20150224.0.x86_64.qcow2``

DIB_DISABLE_KERNEL_CLEANUP
  :Required: No
  :Default: 0
  :Description: Specify if kernel needs to be cleaned up or not. When set to
   true, the bits that cleanup old kernels will not be executed.
  :Example: DIB_DISABLE_KERNEL_CLEANUP=1
