Now I am aware that ruby gem is not an Ubuntu method, but the above clearly shows it is doing apt-get install which is. Furthermore OpenSCAP is itself installable on Ubuntu via

apt-get install libopenscap8

and after this the command

oscap -V

Produces the result of

OpenSCAP command line tool (oscap) 1.2.8
Copyright 2009--2016 Red Hat Inc., Durham, North Carolina.

(and a lot of other info.)

If OpenSCAP is not supposed to work between TheForeman and Ubuntu as a server then TheForeman should not allow running this install option for this plugin at all. As it does it should work and it does not.

we don't have deb packages for openscap plugin, is openscap itself packaged in ubuntu? what is the version present there?

  • Subject changed from Installing OpenSCAP in Ubuntu fails to Installing OpenSCAP plugin in Ubuntu fails

I did indicate in my original report that OpenSCAP does separately install successfully under Ubuntu via apt-get install libopenscap8 and that this results in

oscap -V

produces the result of

OpenSCAP command line tool (oscap) 1.2.8
Copyright 2009--2016 Red Hat Inc., Durham, North Carolina.

So yes OpenSCAP is available for Ubuntu 16.04 in the standard Ubuntu repositories and the version it gives is 1.2.8

Again as I pointed out the installer triggered by the command

foreman-installer --enable-foreman-plugin-openscap

does know to use the apt-get command instead of yum because it has recognised it is being run on Ubuntu. (See results in original report.)

What is open for discussion is whether there is or should be a ruby version of OpenSCAP for Ubuntu. I suspect the answer maybe no. If TheForeman will only work with a ruby version then the plugin installer should not run it should fail immediately before running.

Ruby itself, Ruby4Rails, etc. are all available for Ubuntu.

Would using fpm as per https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-use-fpm-to-easily-create-packages-in-multiple-formats make it possible to produce an Ubuntu aka deb style package?

Actions #4

Updated by John Lockwood about 6 years ago

There are rubygem files at https://rubygems.org/search?utf8=✓&query=openscap

These can be installed in Ubuntu by

gem install name

Unfortunately while the install works and they are then listed via

gem list

Nothing shows up in theForeman web app.

Actions #5

"gem install" is a very bad idea.

Please see https://www.theforeman.org/plugins/#2.3AdvancedInstallationfromGems and be sure you do all that as "foreman" user, not as root.

While it's technically possible to package the OpenSCAP plugin(s), I'm unsure if there aren't parts missing for it to really work on Debian based distributions.
