Description Fabian Arrotin 2016-11-08 13:32:24 UTC 
Description of problem:

rebuilding Ansible as a noarch fails if caught by a non x86_64 builder due to BuildRequires: docker (so arch specific)


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:

Try to rebuild ansible on another arch (ppc64 as an example)
See https://cbs.centos.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=129504

For epel, it seems the job in koji was caught by an x86_64 builder so that build issue wasn't caught : 

https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//packages/ansible/2.2.0.0/3.el7/data/logs/noarch/

Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.

Actual results:


Expected results:

No, I am well aware of the issue. ;) 

Just there was no other better choice. docker is only used for the tests/check section of the build. It's not used at runtime at all. So the choices were: 

1. Make ansible an arch package. But that doesn't make sense because it really is noarch, it only uses docker for tests. 

2. Disable docker tests, but then we don't get full unit test coverage. 

3. Add docker BR but keep things noarch. yes, this does mean you have to shop around for builders sometimes, but alas, thats the way it goes. 

I'm open to any other ideas here, but I don't see any better options. 
Unless you do, I am inclined to close this NOTABUG. :)

Comment 3 Kevin Fenzi 2016-11-09 21:11:58 UTC 
ok. Talked with upstream here and they adjusted the tests so it skips those tests if docker is not available. 

I'm going to push a fixed one into rawhide in a min here... but we do we need to push this to all the other fedora/epel branches too? or ?

I encountered this issue on EPEL7 for AArch64, so pushing it to EPEL7 would be appreciated.
