Hi, Sandro

we have problems recently with having $contentdir in new qemu-ev repo release[1], because it's not set anywhere. It's not an exaggeration to say that it's blocking the whole TripleO CI in Openstack and anything else that uses CentOS 7.5 in Openstack[2].

Can you please fix this problem in the package?

The problem is not in the package. On a centos instance installed with anaconda the $contendir variable is filled by /etc/yum/vars/contentdir which is supposed to be installed by centos-release rpm.

The introduction of this variable has been proposed in https://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-devel/2018-March/016542.html and has been implemented in CentOS 7.5 GA.

Looking at it, deeper I see:

# LC_ALL=C rpm -qf /etc/yum/vars/contentdir file /etc/yum/vars/contentdir is not owned by any package Seems like centos-release rpm has a packaging issue.

A bug has been opened on https://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=14786 which identified the bug happening in OpenStack CI as a bug in diskimage-builder.

That said, I think centos-release-qemu-ev-1.0-3 is doing the right thing there.

Thanks
