freeipa.git/ipapython/platform, branch WIP

Don't run restorecon if SELinux is disabled or not present.

2012-02-27T16:37:08+00:00

Also check for the existence of restorecon. This may be overkill but
it will prevent a client installation from failing for no good reason.

Add SSH service to platform-specific services.

2012-02-14T03:21:54+00:00

Add method for getting configuration directory path of a service,
so that a different SSH configuration directory can be specified on
different platforms.

Handle upgrade issues with systemd in Fedora 16 and above

2012-02-09T01:11:20+00:00

Since 389-ds-base-1.2.10-0.8.a7 Directory Server's systemd settings are
configured via /etc/sysconfig/dirsrv.systemd. It means logic change in
systemd/fedora16 platform of FreeIPA.

Additionally, existing installs need to be handled during upgrade.

Refactor backup_and_replace_hostname() into a flexible config modification tool

2011-10-11T22:21:41+00:00

backup_and_replace_hostname() was doing three things:
    1. Given config file in 'key=value' style, replace value for a
       specified key (HOSTNAME)
    2. Backup original file and install a replacement
    3. Restore original security context after editing

We have several more places where parts of the functionality are needed,
thus making two tools in ipapython.ipautil:

    1. config_replace_variables(filepath, replacevars=dict(),
                                appendvars=dict())
       Replaces or appends values to specified keys, adding new key=value
       pairs if key was absent

    2. backup_config_and_replace_variables(fstore, filepath,
                                           replacevars=dict(),
                                           appendvars=dict())
       Backups config file and calls config_replace_variables()

A caller must handle security context after using these two tools.

In addition, as before, there is
ipapython.services.backup_and_replace_hostname() that uses
these common tools and restores security context after editing.

The code will be used extensively for systemd integration for Fedora 16.

The return value of restorecon is not reliable, ignore it.

Introduce platform-specific adaptation for services used by FreeIPA.

2011-09-13T09:25:58+00:00

Refactor FreeIPA code to allow abstracting all calls to external processes and
dependencies on modification of system-wide configuration. A platform provider
would give its own implementation of those methods and FreeIPA would use it
based on what's built in packaging process.
