#497 Stop creating empty directories
Closed: Fixed 7 years ago Opened 7 years ago by lsedlar.

Even empty variants still have all the subdirectories in compose/. We should not create them nor add them to metadata if there is no content there.


I'm interested in this feature (one of my Variants is aarch64-specific, and I don't want it to appear in composes that are x86_64 only).

For now my workaround is to use two separate Kobo conf files and variant XML files, but if we could eliminate the empty variants altogether it would be even better.

We have a few fedora composes using the same variant XML file and different pungi config files, we do not get empty variants for one's not part of the compose. What we are getting empty directories for is when the variant does not have rpms and install trees. If it's just images we get a skeleton for a rpm variant. Feel free to ask for an extra set of eyes to look over your configuration files

Thanks Dennis, I should look into this more closely. I wonder if this has to do with the fact that RH Ceph Storage uses the create-unified-isos script.
