Ive temporarily changed the config of the VPC to pull from this branch. Running a fedora40 job https://ci.adoptium.net/view/Tooling/job/VagrantPlaybookCheck/1910/console

Looks OK, VPC fails, I think due to a similar issue I've had with Ubuntu 24.04.. if an older version of Python is available, you could try setting that up on the Fedora Box as part of the Vagrant file, and specifying the perl interpreter.

LGTM, feel free to merge post VPC success.

Python2 seems to work but then I hit this error

19:09:50 TASK [logs : Update Log File] **************************************************
19:09:52 fatal: [127.0.0.1]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "Aborting, target uses selinux but python bindings (libselinux-python) aren't installed!"}

The only available libselinux-python package on fedora40 is python3-libselinux which doesnt look like it helps if the default python is python2

Comment seems incorrect?

I think ive hit a wall with this. I am not able to get passed the error in #3663 (comment)

Haroon-Khel · 2024-07-30T12:19:23Z

Eventhough python3-libselinux is installed, python3.8 is having trouble finding it. Only python3.12 is able to find it

Trying the hack at https://dmsimard.com/2016/01/08/selinux-python-virtualenv-chroot-and-ansible-dont-play-nice/ of just copying the selinux directory over to the 3.8 library did not work

The wider solution is to update Ansible on the host, infrastructure-ibmcloud-vagrant-x64-1, so that it can use python3.12

Haroon-Khel · 2024-07-30T13:34:57Z

Installing selinux via pip looks promising, with pip being installed with python 3.8

Using selinux installed via pip and having /usr/bin/python3 point to /usr/bin/python3.8 I get as far as
