Openscap plugin dependencies

Support
1

Hi all,

Is the openscap plugin designed to run on RHEL based systems? I was
attempting to install this today and found that it depends on openscap 1.2,
which does not seem to be available directly from any of the EL7
distributions. My system is running Scientific 7.1 with Foreman 1.9.2 with
the normal repos for EPEL, PuppetLabs, Foreman/Foreman-Plugins and
Scientific Linux.

Any suggestions would be extremely helpful! Thank you kindly!

Weird, it should come with foreman repoclosure.
See here:
https://github.com/theforeman/foreman-packaging/blob/rpm/develop/repoclosure/yum_el7.conf#L39-L43
(and install manually…)
Hope this helps

You'll need to mirror the package from this repository:
http://copr-fe.cloud.fedoraproject.org/coprs/isimluk/OpenSCAP/

I think it's due to be in 7.2 or something.

(When using the installer and with direct internet access you can pass
–foreman-plugin-openscap-configure-openscap-repo=true to enable it
automatically.)

Thank you sir! I guess that would explain it, but I'm not sure how I'm
going to get around it.

I'm running on an isolated network using a server that can jump between
networks to mirror repos.

Yeah, it's a tough one… Couldn't find in
http://www.open-scap.org/page/Download

Maybe install from source? (GitHub - OpenSCAP/openscap: NIST Certified SCAP 1.2 toolkit
)

Thanks Dominic!

It does seem there's more to setup than just the repo mirror. I'm not
entirely sure what the best way to tackle it is, but it seems like if the
SCAP clients don't have access to a repo where the
rubygem-foreman_scap_client package exists. So it looks like that comes
out of foreman-plugins repo, which I'll have to mirror and distribute to
all my SCAP clients. Normally I wouldn't expect to have the
foreman-plugins repo distributed to every system on my network, even if
they were connected to the Internet.

Can you think of anything else I'm missing?
