openSUSE/SUSE specific Settings =============================== openSUSE and SUSE have a small difference with upstream default. This means the SUID root binaries distributed by singularty are executable only by users belonging to the group 'singularity-ce'. Otherwise, users will get an error message like this one: FATAL: while executing /usr/lib/singularity-ce/bin/starter-suid: permission denied To add a user to the group singularity, execute (as root): # usermod -a -G singularity <user_login> Create Apptainer Images from openSUSE/SLE =========================================== To create openSUSE/SLE singularity-ce images from scratch a number of bootdef variables need to be specified: 1. Create a bootdef file (for instance 'sle.def'), add BootStrap: zypper 2. Set the OS version: OSVersion: 15.0 The version number corresponds to the Leap version or the SLE version and service pack level: <version>.<service_pack_level> Example: SLE-12 SP4 would be 12.4. The inital release of a major version corresponds to <service_pack_level> 0. 3. For openSUSE the following additional variables need to be specified: * MirrorURL: URL to the installation repository. Check 'man 8 zypper' for supported formats * UpdateURL: (optional) URI of the update repository 4. For SLE, all required settings are obtained from SCC. The following variables are recognized: * Product: The product code: The following forms may be used: <product_id> <product_id>/<os_version> <product_id>/<os_version>/<arch> <product_id>: SLES, SLE-HPC (SLE-12), SLE_HPC (SLE-15), SLED <os_version>: optional, if ommitted, the value of OSVersion will be used. The variable %{OSVERSION} is recognized and replaced by OSVersion. <arch> : The architecture to use. Defaults to 'uname -m'. * User: The email a subscription is registed with SCC. * Regcode: The SCC registration code provided with the subscription. * ProductPGP: The PGP key used to sign the repositories. Each line must be terminated with \n. Long lines may be broken using the continuation character '\'. See below. Note: this is not required when an installer repository is provided with MirrorURL. Beginning with version 15, the URI to the installer image needs to be provided as well: * MirrorURL: Repository containing the SLE Installer (see also above). Since SLE-15 consists of modules, a list of modules to be used should to be specified as well: * Modules: Specify the modules in a comma separated list without spaces. Example: SLEModules: sle-module-basesystem,sle-module-server-applications,sle-module-web-scripting,sle-module-hpc Examples ======== Example defintions for SLE12-SP5 and SLE15-SP3 are in the same directory as README.SUSE ProductPGP ========== SLEpgp: -----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----\n\ Version: rpm-4.11.2 (NSS-3)\n\ \n\ mQENBFEKlmsBCADbpZZbbSC5Zi+HxCR/ynYsVxU5JNNiSSZabN5GMgc9Z0hxeXxp\n\ YWvFoE/4n0+IXIsp83iKvxf06Eu8je/DXp0lMqDZu7WiT3XXAlkOPSNV4akHTDoY\n\ 91SJaZCpgUJ7K1QXOPABNbREsAMN1a7rxBowjNjBUyiTJ2YuvQRLtGdK1kExsVma\n\ hieh/QxpoDyYd5w/aky3z23erCoEd+OPfAqEHd5tQIa6LOosa63BSCEl3milJ7J9\n\ vDmoGPAoS6ui7S2R5X4/+PLN8Mm2kOBrFjhmL93LX0mrGCMxsNsKgP6zabYKQEb8\n\ L028SXvl7EGoA+Vw5Vd3wIGbM73PfbgNrXjfABEBAAG0KFN1U0UgUGFja2FnZSBT\n\ aWduaW5nIEtleSA8YnVpbGRAc3VzZS5kZT6JATwEEwECACYCGwMGCwkIBwMCBBUC\n\ CAMEFgIDAQIeAQIXgAUCWEfrHwUJDsIitAAKCRBwr56BOdt8gpqUB/wPSSS5BcDu\n\ Oi4n02cj4Hdt7WITKBjjo0lG1fXG1ppx1wOST+s8FertMVFY53TW6FGjcYtwVOIq\n\ rsMYiV6kf1NxUV/jcAy7VmC5EZnO0R/D3sT4Oh5hsLtERauZolK5BZmd0S51Qa8e\n\ TxZ5mX9PL2i3s/ShETc30drf83ugc7B4yZPNQWXNDPgGcC+hEeC5qw48RzHYIpUt\n\ RzHmefR5Z3ioTUbDlzy+SGP2uA7mhR4Lfk/df5fYxWfCoKlyGjtrvA65cB+Pksyn\n\ xrAeBuB+vBM+KnDrxW2Sn4AbWkzH//dfz9OJDJu4UM91hb7qxM0OkrXHQV3iNqzg\n\ MDEhky/9NqMy\n\ =GdP5\n\ -----END PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----
