resolves #73

[lakshmi-kannan]

How can I help test this? When you merge, should I just install the bundle and repeat the manual virtualenv creation steps?

[dennybaa]

@lakshmi-kannan same procedure actually. Just install stackstorm from el7 bintray repo, following the steps from manas gist for ubuntu. Then run packs.install, it should work. For el6 more difficult, you should run docker-compose run el6 and docker exec -it st2_packages_centos6test_1 bash and run packs.install from there.

Tested this on EL7 and it works.

However, looking at virtualenv_opts in st2.conf file, --always-copy is not set. Is this intentional for RHEL?

[vagrant@st2packages ~]$ grep "virtualenv_opts" /etc/st2/st2.conf
virtualenv_opts =
[vagrant@st2packages ~]$

[lakshmi-kannan]

@dennybaa Please confirm ^ and then I'll test EL6. I'll also add instructions for RHEL6 to this #83 while I do that.

[dennybaa]

@lakshmi-kannan, EL7 doesn't require --always-copy, it doesn't work with this parameter.
All others including EL6 have it.

[lakshmi-kannan]

@dennybaa Will validate EL6 today.
