A ppc64el or riscv64 management node installs the amd64 Genesis. xCAT and
xCATsn declare Architecture: amd64 ppc64el riscv64 and one unrestricted
Depends: xcat-genesis-scripts-amd64, so every architecture gets it. That
package is Architecture: all, so apt reports no error. It lays down
/opt/xcat/share/xcat/netboot/genesis/x86_64 and pulls the 128 MB
xcat-genesis-base-amd64, and the node receives no Genesis for its own
architecture. xcat-genesis-scripts-ppc64, the package that would carry it, is
uninstallable: it depends on xcat-genesis-base-ppc64, and builddeb-genesis-base
names the ppc64el base deb xcat-genesis-base-ppc64el.
xCAT/debian/control and xCATsn/debian/control now restrict the dependency by
architecture, the way xCAT.spec does with
%{?genesistarch:Requires: xCAT-genesis-scripts-%{genesistarch}}. amd64 gets
xcat-genesis-scripts-amd64, ppc64el gets xcat-genesis-scripts-ppc64el, and
riscv64 gets neither, because its Genesis is the OpenEmbedded image.
xCAT-genesis-scripts/debian/control-ppc64el builds xcat-genesis-scripts-ppc64el
and depends on xcat-genesis-base-ppc64el. It conflicts with and replaces the
old name, which shares the same files.
debian_control_arch_coverage.t asserts the genesis scripts an architecture
receives are that architecture's own, and that control-<arch> builds
xcat-genesis-scripts-<arch> against xcat-genesis-base-<arch>. Eight of its
assertions fail without this change.
