[Enhancement] Switch from Tar to Rpm for Ansible Playbook

Open peterzhuamazon opened this issue 3 years ago • 3 comments

With RPM being released on 2.0.0-rc1 (preview) and 1.3.2 today (2022/05/05), we can finally switch from Tar to Rpm for RH-based linux distro.

@saravanan30erd has talked to me about before to have this switch happen.

We can discuss about the approach as we currently dont have deb yet to support Ubuntu.

Thanks.

Or we can think about whether we want to maintain both tar and rpm, or just rpm. The problem with only rpm is the versions pre-1.3.2 will not have rpm to install.

Thanks.

I think it's not worth doing .rpm and .deb. We need to use a single format .tar for all distributions. This will make the role more versatile.

Hi @ssi444 not really saying we need to add new .rpm playbook, but @saravanan30erd was talking about replace existing .tar to .rpm setup.
