Building gLExec from src rpm gLite era

How to build gLExec from a .src.rpm

Different versions can be used, this is a working example and work in progress...

• Platform: Centos-4

• Yum Installed

rpm-build
gcc
gcc-c++
make
libtool

• For 64bit we also need to yum install (to fulfill a vdt dependency)

glibc.i686

• Installed extra packages (rpm -i)

32bit
vdt_globus_essentials-VDT1.6.1x86_rhas_4-9.i386.rpm
org.glite.build.common-cpp-3.2.1-2.slc4.i386.rpm
glite-security-voms-api-c-1.8.12-1.slc4.i386.rpm
glite-security-voms-api-cpp-1.8.12-1.slc4.i386.rpm
glite-security-lcas-interface-1.3.11-1.slc4.i386.rpm
glite-security-lcas-1.3.11-2.slc4.i386.rpm
glite-security-lcmaps-1.4.7-1.slc4.i386.rpm

64bit
vdt_globus_essentials-VDT1.6.1x86_64_rhas_4-9.x86_64.rpm
org.glite.build.common-cpp-3.2.1-2.slc4.x86_64.rpm
glite-security-voms-api-c-1.8.12-1.slc4.x86_64.rpm
glite-security-voms-api-cpp-1.8.12-1.slc4.x86_64.rpm
glite-security-lcas-interface-1.3.11-1.slc4.x86_64.rpm
glite-security-lcas-1.3.11-2.slc4.x86_64.rpm
glite-security-lcmaps-1.4.7-1.slc4.x86_64.rpm

• Alternative, for 32bit only: setup a Yum repository:

cat > /etc/yum.repos.d/glite-GLEXEC_wn.repo << EOF
[glite-GLEXEC_wn]
name=gLite 3.1 gLExec Worker Node
baseurl=http://linuxsoft.cern.ch/EGEE/gLite/R3.1/glite-GLEXEC_wn/sl4/$basearch/
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0
EOF
yum install glite-security-lcmaps glite-security-lcas glite-security-lcas-interface

Unfortunately org.glite.build.common-cpp-3.2.1-2.slc4.i386.rpm still has to be installed by hand from Etics.

• Installed from tarball into /opt/globus:

32bit
globus-4.0.3-VDT-1.6.1-9.tar.gz

64bit
globus-4.0.3-VDT-1.6.1-9.tar.gz

NOTE: it would have been sufficient to install vdt_globus_sdk-VDT1.6.1x86_rhas_4-9.i386.rpm (32bit) or vdt_globus_simple_ca-VDT1.6.1x86_64_rhas_4-9.x86_64.rpm (64bit), but unfortunately these don't contain the files /opt/globus/include/gcc64*/globus_config.h which is why it is easier to install the tarball. See also [1] for a way to rebuild the globus_config.h files.

• Created /etc/ld.so.conf.d/glite.conf and /etc/ld.so.conf.d/globus.conf:

32bit

echo /opt/glite/lib > /etc/ld.so.conf.d/glite.conf
echo /opt/globus/lib > /etc/ld.so.conf.d/globus.conf
ldconfig

64bit

echo /opt/glite/lib64 > /etc/ld.so.conf.d/glite.conf
echo /opt/globus/lib > /etc/ld.so.conf.d/globus.conf
ldconfig

• installed (rpm -i)

glite-security-glexec-0.6.8-3.src.rpm

• patch /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/glite-security-glexec.spec

• Create rpm:

cd /usr/src/redhat
rpmbuild -bb SPECS/glite-security-glexec.spec

• TODO:

provide a script which does all the above steps...
