[Pkg-ganeti-devel] Debian paths and status

[Guido Trotter]

Hi!

With svn rev188 we can personalize both the export dir and the os scripts search
path. We might be able to have in cluster initialization time configuation for
at least export later on, but for now that's a good start.

My proposal is to use /var/lib/ganeti/export as --with-export-dir value (or is
/var/share better?) and the following for --with-os-search-path:

/srv/ganeti/os (rationale, it's the default ganeti one, no harm for ganeti using
it, it's there)
/usr/local/lib/ganeti/os
/usr/local/share/ganeti/os (rationale, it makes sense for OSs the local admin
has installed to override the default ones outside of local/, both lib/ and
share/ are accepted because we don't know whether the admin will put in binaries
or scripts, and we don't care)
/usr/lib/ganeti/os
/usr/share/ganeti/os

Is this fine for you? I'd say that for the rest we're pretty much all set! Any
other issues pending?

Thanks Leonardo for providing the initial configure patch, sorry I couldn't use
it as is but I think using the search path for the OS buys us a lot in term of
flexibility...

Regards,

Guido
