I was having issues building Centos template for 4.0 so I decided to first see if it would build for 3.2.

Doing setup script templates only. I editing example-confg 3.2 conf file and removed the FC version from DISTS_VM line.

I built it per component and it fails on the last one linux-template-builder.
os

In the centos7-template.log it shows the following conflict error

file /etc/dconf/profile/user from install of qubes-core-vm-3.2.23-1.el7.centos.x86_64 conflicts with file from package dconf-0.26.0-2.el7.x86_64

Ultimately I want to build these for 4.0 but figured first getting it working for 3.2 as its suppose to work there already.

The template for CentOS in Q4 is still not completely achieved. I still need time to fix several things.

But the error I am getting is for Q-3.2 not 4.0. Its listed in my first post,

I had not included the 4.0 errors as I thought it might just be a needed update of software version or module but here they are from 4.0 in case they are of any use to you.

Shouldn't 3.2 still be buildable ?

Instead in 3.2 I am getting the following during $ make linux-template-builder :

Sorry I read too fastly. The errors in Q4 for the python dependencies are exactly some of the reasons why it is long to do the template. Some python3 packages are not built for CentOS...For you problem I need to perform the rebuild with the latest version of r3.2 packages. I keep you in touch.

Sounds good. I figured that was the issue for the Q4 but Q3.2 error was the one that surprised me as its been a good build in the past.

Just an FYI I am building this in F23 but did bring in the correct python2.sh. Have had no issues building standard Q3.2 and 4.0 ISOs.

I solved the problem. You can track the update here: https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-core-agent-linux/pull/97

I succeed to build the template in R3.2. The R4.0 is still pending...

AWESOME!!!

Thanks for taking the time post the update. I will build as soon as I get home and report back.

Should it build ok as part of the qubes os iso as well?

You's welcome. No problem, the time Marek do the necessary, you can cherry pick the commit.

You mean you want to build it and generate an ISO with CentOS? Sure you can.

Great that was failing basically on all non standard templates i.e. not fedora, debain, or whonix. They would all fail but it seems each had issues ubuntu, centos, arch. Seems they are each getting fixed for 3.2 and getting updated for 4.0 now. I was just testing to ensure things were still working for building as I know many prefer to build their own iso and templates vs binary. I am one. Figured if docs had to be updated I would do that but it seems at most just a tweak or two in docs is all thats needed.

Thanks again for you and Marek getting it working

Indeed, it was just an adjustment with respect to the rpm spec of the conflicting package. CentOS is shipping a file in their own dconf but not Fedora. Recently a file /etc/dconf/profile/user has been used and provided by Qubes and that is why there was a recent conflict. The template for R4.0 is on the road! I finished last week to do all the necessary and Marek is currently implementing it.

Just tried to build the standard template only under 3.2 and got this conflict

Transaction check error:
file /etc/dconf/profile/user from install of qubes-core-vm-3.2.25-1.el7.centos.x86_64 conflicts with file from package dconf-0.26.0-2.el7.x86_64

It fails on $make template

It's the same conflict - I guess you need to wait for the change to be
merged to 3.2

Yes sorry about that it was very late and I was a bit punchy.

Since Marek updated the qubes builder to address the security bulletin issue the tag for centos is no longer valid so it fails the update after choosing the centos template with a invalid / no valid tag found error but does proceed to allow choosing of the templates to build.
