Public bug reported:
Installation of the base library package (slurm-drmaa1) does not create
a libdrmaa alternative. This is done in the development package, where
it installs an alternative for "libdrmaa.so" and a symbolic link for
"libdrmaa.so"
me@hostname[~/build/slurm-drmaa]: update-alternatives --query libdrmaa.so
update-alternatives: error: no alternatives for libdrmaa.so.
me@hostname[~/build/slurm-drmaa]: sudo dpkg --install

me@hostname[~/build/slurm-drmaa]: update-alternatives --query libdrmaa.so
Link: libdrmaa.so
Status: auto
Best: /usr/lib/slurm-drmaa/lib/libdrmaa.so
Value: /usr/lib/slurm-drmaa/lib/libdrmaa.so
Alternative: /usr/lib/slurm-drmaa/lib/libdrmaa.so
Priority: 40
Slaves:
drmaa.h /usr/lib/slurm-drmaa/include/drmaa.h
It seems to me that the base library package should handle any
alternatives for the library. The development package would simply add
the slave for the drmaa header files.
I've handled this in our environment by adding a slurm-drmaa1.postinst
and slurm-drmaa1.prerm command to manage the alternative. Seems to work
OK, and happy to provide my work.
Thanks
Michael
