Empaquetado de Configuración por Producto

All packages MUST have a global default configuration. This configuration will be used whenever a Product-specific default configuration is not required. (For example, if a non-Product install is in use or only Fedora Cloud has a custom configuration and Fedora Workstation was installed).

Any package that requires a per-product default configuration MUST provide all alternate configuration files in the same package.

Any package that requires a configuration that differs between Products MUST obtain permission from that Product’s Working Group before packaging it.

The global default configuration MUST be provided by the package that requires it.

The global default configuration MUST be named based on the package’s normal naming scheme, with the main part of the name being suffixed by -default. For example, if the package normally uses foo.conf, then the global default configuration MUST be named foo-default.conf.

For each Product requiring a unique default configuration, the packager MUST provide a copy of the default configuration file, modified as appropriate for the specific product.

The product-specific configuration file MUST be named based on the package’s normal naming scheme, with the main part of the name being suffixed by a dash followed by the name of the product. For example, if the package normally uses foo.conf, then the Server version MUST be named foo-server.conf.

If the configuration will be symlinked in place, the product-specific configuration file MUST be located in an appropriate part of the /etc hierarchy. The divergent config file MUST be specified as %config(noreplace) in %files as per the usual /etc packaging guidelines.

If the configuration will be copied in place, the product-specific configuration file MUST be located in an appropriate part of the /usr/share hierarchy. The divergent config file MUST be specified as a normal file in the %files section.

It MUST first check whether the final config file already exists. If so, the script MUST make no changes.

%posttrans
if [ ! -e %{_sysconfdir}/foo/foo.conf ]; then
    ...
fi

Then it MUST use the value of the Fedora VARIANT_ID to symlink or copy one of the divergent config files (or the default) to the final config file location. It will get this value by importing the contents of /etc/os-release as shell values. Known values of this field at the time of this writing are "atomichost", "cloud", "server" and "workstation". For more detail, see the os-release(5) man page.

. /etc/os-release || :
case "$VARIANT_ID" in
    server)
        ln -sf foo-server.conf %{_sysconfdir}/foo/foo.conf || :
        ;;
    *)
        ln -sf foo-default.conf %{_sysconfdir}/foo/foo.conf || :
        ;;
    esac

Lastly, the final config file location MUST be listed in the %files section with %ghost:

%ghost %config(noreplace) %{_sysconfdir}/foo/foo.conf

For tracking purposes, the package providing the various configuration files MUST also contain a virtual Provides: for each variant configuration that may be applied:

Provides: variant_config(Atomic.host)
Provides: variant_config(Cloud)
Provides: variant_config(Server)
Provides: variant_config(Workstation)
