[container build broken] Installing openstack-tripleo-common after openstack-tripleo-common-container-base is broken

[Jiří Stránský]

Installing openstack-tripleo-common after openstack-tripleo-common-container-base is broken with:

  Installing : openstack-tripleo-common-7.3.1-0.20170726221158.408f8a1.el7.centos.noarch 1/1
Error unpacking rpm package openstack-tripleo-common-7.3.1-0.20170726221158.408f8a1.el7.centos.noarch
error: unpacking of archive failed on file /usr/share/tripleo-common: cpio: rename

This breaks container image builds.

The problem is that we first create

/usr/share/tripleo-common as a regular directory with openstack-tripleo-common-container-base, and then tripleo-common tries to replace it with a symlink, which fails.

I'll submit a patch to RPM spec to fix this.

To further clarify the issue, this is while only openstack-tripleo-common-container-base is installed:

()[root@a63a23b81eef /]# ll -d /usr/share/tripleo-common
drwxr-xr-x. 3 root root 25 Jul 27 14:21 /usr/share/tripleo-common
()[root@a63a23b81eef /]# ll -d /usr/share/openstack-tripleo-common
ls: cannot access /usr/share/openstack-tripleo-common: No such file or directory

()[root@a63a23b81eef /]# rpm -qf /usr/share/tripleo-common
file /usr/share/tripleo-common is not owned by any package
()[root@a63a23b81eef /]# rpm -qf /usr/share/tripleo-common/healthcheck
openstack-tripleo-common-container-base-7.3.1-0.20170726221158.408f8a1.el7.centos.noarch

And because of that, this later fails:

The fix was merged in RDO, we just need a promotion to get it into current-tripleo.
