[one-users] Open Nebula 3.4.1 on Ubuntu 12.04

[Jaime Melis]

Hello Daniel,

it will probably take some time for the Ubuntu's community package to
update to 3.4. As you very well pointed out, the community packages and the
packages provided by opennebula.org aren't the same, meaning that you can't
move from one to the other freely.

We didn't create packages for Ubuntu 12.04 when we released OpenNebula 3.4
because 12.04 wasn't yet released. However, we will release packages for
ubuntu 12.04 for OpenNebula's next release (due in less than 3 months).

Answering your question I believe you have two options:
1 - Install from source. It isn't difficult at all, and the process is
documented [1]. It brings many advantages, such as immediate upgrades and
since it's in a git repo you can comfortably apply patches, and track the
changes you make to your OpenNebula files (many drivers are meant to be
slightly modified in order to adapt them to any datastore).
2 - Download the source deb from [2]. Recompile it for Ubuntu 12.04 and
install it. Another fellow OpenNebula user created this guide [3] on
upgrading the ubuntu package for Ubuntu 11.04 you might want to follow it.

cheers,
