Installing Euca2ools on OpenSUSE 11.2

This document shows you how to install Euca2ools 1.3 from RPM packages on OpenSUSE 11.2. In the following steps, the value of $VERSION must be substituted accordingly (e.g., as 1.2, 1.3.1, etc.) for example we can set the value of 1.3.1 using bash:

export VERSION=1.3.1

There are two options for downloading and installing the packages:

  1. Zypper option

  2. These packages are available from our repository. To use this option:
    zypper ar --refresh http://www.eucalyptussoftware.com/downloads/repo/euca2ools/$VERSION/yum/opensuse Euca2ools
    
    next, refresh the repository
    zypper refresh Euca2ools
    and answer "yes" to the question about trusting the packages:
    File 'repomd.xml' from repository 'Euca2ools' is unsigned, continue? [yes/no] (no): yes
    
    now install Euca2ools
    zypper install euca2ools
  1. Tarball option

  2. Download the appropriate tarball for your architecture (64-bit: x86_64 or for 32-bit: i386) from http://open.eucalyptus.com/downloads

    Untar the bundle in a temporary location, and install euca2ools

    tar zxvf euca2ools-$VERSION-*.tar.gz
    cd euca2ools-$VERSION-*
    sudo -s
    zypper install swig
    rpm -Uvh  euca2ools-$VERSION-*.rpm

    NOTE: please use '-Uvh' and not '-i'.
