Yum install once about baremetal-deploy HOT 5 CLOSED

My read of this is the second install is happening only when a self host registry is being configured for disconnected. The packages would not be needed otherwise.

Do you think they should be installed when not needed?

install_depends(){
  PACKAGES="ansible git usbredir golang libXv virt-install libvirt libvirt-devel libselinux-utils qemu-kvm mkisofs python3-devel jq ipmitool"
  EXTRA_PACKAGES="podman httpd httpd-tools"
  [ "$ENABLEDISCONNECT" -eq "1" ] && PACKAGES+=" ${EXTRA_PACKAGES}"
  echo "Installing required dependencies..."
  echo ${PACKAGES}
}

Also, it would be nice to use a http container instead installing httpd (containers everywhere!)

@e-minguez @sreichar - Once we get disconnected installs and cacheing as part of the Ansible playbook, can we retire baremetal-prep.sh?

from baremetal-deploy.

Closing as we are not going to make any enhancements to baremetal-prep.sh
