zypper | World's most powerful command line package manager

I've just realised that Slackware uses slackpkg as package manager. Not quite sure if this is the library you need, but try installing with:

It seems to be a new major issue.

Seems to be tracked by https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1190670 see: https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/1926064#step/docker_image/182

dlopen: file "/usr/lib64/libm.so"

I don't know anything about Guile, but the problem appears to be that it is trying to dlopen libm.so.

On Linux with GLIBC, libm.so is a linker script, not an ELF file. The real ELF library (and the library guile should be dlopening) is libm.so.6.

You can see that your libm.so (at 110 bytes) is way too small to be an ELF file. If you run file -L /usr/lib64/libm.so*, you should see something like this:

Error message: Failed to connect to download.newrelic.com port 443: Connection timed out

Seems that it tries to download some additional files. Try to install this package manually on a test environment to see the full error.

Or maybe outbound to download.newrelic.com port 443 is firewalled?

The environment property of the bash resource is to supply existing environment variables to execute the bash command(s).

(These variables must exist for a command to be run successfully.)

Specifying environment variables here will not set them in the shell. Also from within the code block you will not be able to access the Ruby's ENV hash.

There may not be a straight-forward way to do this. One of the options is to write this package (list?) to a file. Then we can read the file contents into variable, and use it with zypper_package resource.

Example:

Since you have used for loop in Shell, I believe you get a list of packages, so I am considering pkg_list as Array. I've set compile_time to true as the variable assignment below bash resource will only run during compile time.

replace qdbus command with qdbus-qt5

I'm not familiar with Suse, but I think the name of the package is python3-pip.

Simply remove the quotes from the spawn line.

So I assume 2.14 is not installed

Correct.

therefore I need to install it,

No: it doesn't follow that you need to install GLIBC-2.14.

What you should do instead is either obtain or build from source the psycopg2 package targeting your system and your version of GLIBC.

I have no clue, this server was set up a couple of years ago and there was no documentation left

Whoever did this setup had no clue either. Rather than making hacks which may work some of the time, or may break something else, you should do sane thing: either upgrade the entire server to some recent distribution, or install software appropriate for your old one.
