716247 - install python isodate module on all socorro servers (dev, stage, prod)

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(mozilla.org Graveyard :: Server Operations, task)

Description

[Robert Helmer [:rhelmer]]

The Socorro 2.4 release (currently on staging) requires a new dependency - the python isodate module (available from pypi).

I didn't see it available as an RPM from the usual places, so for right now I built an RPM using pypi2rpm: http://people.mozilla.org/~rhelmer/temp/python26-isodate-0.4.6-1.noarch.rpm

This RPM is on crash-stats-dev (installed by my) and stage (installed by rbryce), we should remove this if we have a better source to use.

Could we have this package renamed to python-isodate instead of python26-isodate? I believe current RHEL6 packages do not include '26' in the name as the default python version is 2.6. Or you could provide me the SRPM and I could do it.

I used pypi2rpm to generate this RPM (http://pypi.python.org/pypi/pypi2rpm), I will see if I can get it to generate an SRPM or just change the name at least.

I hacked pypi2rpm to drop the SRPM instead:
http://people.mozilla.org/~rhelmer/temp/python26-isodate-0.4.6-1.src.rpm

I'll submit a patch to get a command-line option or two added (to just generate spec, srpm, etc)

rhelmer thanks! Created rpm from source rpm - modified name to python-isodate. Added to puppet configurations. Should be on the host within the next hour.

QA verified, per conversation in irc nothing would be currently working if this hadn't properly landed.

Thanks jason for rocking it.
