Description Benoit Leveugle 2021-05-17 06:54:30 MDT

Hi,

It has been a while I build slurm, and I always face the same issue, which is minor, but in case of.

Operating system: RedHat 8

By default, if you rpmbuild the sources, it requires on a basic system:

dnf install -y pam-devel readline-devel perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker

But, in fact, it cannot build without mariadb:

Processing files: slurm-slurmdbd-20.11.7-1.el8.x86_64
error: File not found: /root/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/slurm-20.11.7-1.el8.x86_64/usr/lib64/slurm/accounting_storage_mysql.so

Which is solved by:

dnf install mariadb mariadb-devel

So maybe a missing dependency in the spec file ?

With my best regards

Comment 1 Tim Wickberg 2021-05-17 11:41:10 MDT

Due to the mix of systems Slurm needs to support, and the inconsistencies in upstream packaging, we intentionally omit any dependency on MariaDB and/or MySQL at this time.

If we do address this, bug 6488 will have further details.

I understand your POW and the needs to cover multiple distributions.

Then you can close this ticket :-)

Thanks a lot for the answer.
Have a nice week

With my best regards

Benoît
