This patch covers a few changes to get the yum test case working on ppc64le
CentOS. Specifically we needed to enable the EPEL repository on CentOS
as well as ensure some of the architecture-specific tasks use the right
set of binaries during their test.
When targeting 'foo*' in tests, it pulled in packages other than the dummy packages in our testing repo that have many dependencies, some of which were causing tests to fail.
Also change 'bar' package name to avoid the same issue in the future.
* YUM4/DNF compatibility via yum action plugin
DNF does not natively support allow_downgrade as an option, instead
that is always the default (not configurable by the administrator)
so it had to be implemented
- Fixed group actions in check mode to report correct changed state
- Better error handling for depsolve and transaction errors in DNF
- Fixed group action idempotent transactions
- Add use_backend to yum module/action plugin
- Fix dnf handling of autoremove (didn't used to work nor had a
default value specified, now does work and matches default
behavior of yum)
- Enable installroot tests for yum4(dnf) integration testing, dnf
backend now supports that
- Switch from zip to bc for certain package install/remove test
cases in yum integration tests. The dnf depsolver downgrades
python when you uninstall zip which alters the test environment
and we have no control over that.
- Add changelog fragment
- Return a pkg_mgr fact if it was not previously set.
