Package Structure

Package Structure Modifications in EMI-2

Traditional modules have been split into runtime, development and utility packages as mandated by the applicable packaging rules. The resulting module structure for all L&B-relevant packages is shown in the table bellow. New ones are shown in bold.

EMI Product Teams depending on any of those packages for their builds need to change their dependency to the -devel versions of the modules/packages for EMI 2! Run-time dependence on any of these packages must be changed to the -progs version of the modules/packages for EMI 2!

EMI1, EMI2: Exceptions from Packaging Rules

GridSite

Explaining necessary exceptions from applicable packaging rules.

The affected programs (gsexec and =slashgrid) have special uses that require specific permissions. However, they will not be included in the EMI-3 release so EMI-3 will not suffer from this.

gridsite-slashgrid.x86_64: E: non-standard-executable-perm /usr/sbin/slashgrid 0744
A standard executable should have permission set to 0755. If you get this
message, it means that you have a wrong executable permissions in some files
included in your package. 

gridsite-slashgrid.x86_64: E: non-standard-dir-perm /var/spool/slashgrid 0700 
A standard directory should have permission set to 0755. If you get this 
message, it means that you have wrong directory permissions in some dirs
included in your package.

gridsite-slashgrid.x86_64: E: non-standard-executable-perm /etc/rc.d/init.d/slashgrid 0744
A standard executable should have permission set to 0755. If you get this
message, it means that you have a wrong executable permissions in some files
included in your package.

gridsite-slashgrid.x86_64: E: postin-without-chkconfig /etc/rc.d/init.d/slashgrid
The package contains an init script but doesn't call chkconfig in its %post
script.

gridsite-slashgrid.x86_64: E: preun-without-chkconfig /etc/rc.d/init.d/slashgrid
The package contains an init script but doesn't call chkconfig in its %preun
script.

gridsite-slashgrid.x86_64: E: no-status-entry /etc/rc.d/init.d/slashgrid
In your init script (/etc/rc.d/init.d/your_file), you don't have a 'status'
entry, which is necessary for good functionality.
