Software Requirements
- `iproute2 <http://www.linuxfoundation.org/en/Net:Iproute2>`_
- `arping <http://www.skbuff.net/iputils/>`_ (part of iputils)
- `ndisc6 <http://www.remlab.net/ndisc6/>`_ (if using IPv6)
-- `Python <http://www.python.org/>`_, version 2.4 or above, not 3.0
+- `Python <http://www.python.org/>`_, version 2.6 or above, not 3.0
- `Python OpenSSL bindings <http://pyopenssl.sourceforge.net/>`_
- `simplejson Python module <http://code.google.com/p/simplejson/>`_
- `pyparsing Python module <http://pyparsing.wikispaces.com/>`_, version
you can try installing them using ``easy_install`` command.
For example::
- $ apt-get install python-setuptools
+ $ apt-get install python-setuptools python-dev
$ cd / && sudo easy_install \
- affinity
+ affinity \
+ bitarray \
+ ipaddr
On Fedora to install all required packages except RBD, DRBD and Xen::
$ yum install openssh openssh-clients bridge-utils iproute ndisc6 \
pyOpenSSL pyparsing python-simplejson python-inotify \
- python-lxm socat fping
+ python-lxm socat fping python-bitarray python-ipaddr
For optional packages use the command::
`utf8-string <http://hackage.haskell.org/package/utf8-string>`_
libraries; these usually come with the GHC compiler
- `deepseq <http://hackage.haskell.org/package/deepseq>`_
+- `curl <http://hackage.haskell.org/package/curl>`_, tested with
+ versions 1.3.4 and above
Some of these are also available as package in Debian/Ubuntu::
$ apt-get install ghc6 libghc6-json-dev libghc6-network-dev \
- libghc6-parallel-dev libghc6-deepseq-dev
+ libghc6-parallel-dev libghc6-deepseq-dev \
+ libghc6-curl-dev
Or in newer versions of these distributions (using GHC 7.x)::
$ apt-get install ghc libghc-json-dev libghc-network-dev \
libghc-parallel-dev libghc-deepseq-dev \
- libghc-utf8-string-dev
+ libghc-utf8-string-dev libghc-curl-dev

the Haskell platform. You can also install ``cabal`` manually::
$ apt-get install cabal-install
+ $ cabal update
-Then install the additional libraries via
-``cabal``::
-
- $ cabal install json network parallel utf8-string
-
-The compilation of the htools components is automatically enabled when
-the compiler and the requisite libraries are found. You can use the
-``--enable-htools`` configure flag to force the selection (at which
-point ``./configure`` will fail if it doesn't find the prerequisites).
+Then install the additional libraries (only the ones not available in your
+distribution packages) via ``cabal``::
+ $ cabal install json network parallel utf8-string curl
Haskell optional features
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Optionally, more functionality can be enabled if your build machine has
-a few more Haskell libraries enabled: RAPI access to remote cluster from
-htools (``--enable-htools-rapi``), the ``ganeti-confd``
-daemon (``--enable-confd``) and the monitoring agent
-(``--enable-monitoring``). The list of extra dependencies for these is:

-The most recent Fedora doesn't provide ``curl``, ``crypto``,

-desired. The other packages can be installed via ``yum``::
+In case you still use ghc-6.12, note that ``cabal`` would automatically try to
+install newer versions of some of the libraries snap-server depends on, that
+cannot be compiled with ghc-6.12, so you have to install snap-server on its
+own, esplicitly forcing the installation of compatible versions::
