OpenBSD 6.7 how to install xbase - openbsd

Question

I am updating our integration test environments to OpenBSD 6.7 (from 6.5)
We use ansible to install all the packages on the target system (openbsd 6.7, Vagrant image https://app.vagrantup.com/generic/boxes/openbsd6/versions/3.0.6 )
With the above image, I cannot install java openjdk 11.
obsd-31# pkg_add -r jdk%11

jdk-11.0.7.10.2p0v0:lz4-1.9.2p0: ok

jdk-11.0.7.10.2p0v0:png-1.6.37: ok
jdk-11.0.7.10.2p0v0:giflib-5.1.6: ok
Can't install jdk-11.0.7.10.2p0v0 because of libraries

Direct dependencies for jdk-11.0.7.10.2p0v0 resolve to png-1.6.37 libiconv-1.16p0 giflib-5.1.6 lcms2-2.9p0 jpeg-2.0.4p0v0

Couldn't install jdk-11.0.7.10.2p0v0
my guess is that xbase is not installed.
However, I cannot figure out how to install xbase without rebooting into a bootable installer (because I need to do it via a shell command running from ansible)
Is there a way?

Answer 1

The generic OpenBSD Vagrant image you're using was created as a command line environment, so the X windows files were were excluded during the install process.
There are lots of ways to add X windows to OpenBSD after installation, but the quickest method that comes to mind would be:
sudo su -l
curl -LO 'https://ftp.usa.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/6.7/amd64/x{base,serv,font,share}67.tgz'
tar xzf xbase67.tgz -C /
tar xzf xserv67.tgz -C /
tar xzf xfont67.tgz -C /
tar xzf xshare67.tgz -C /
rm -f xbase67.tgz xfont67.tgz xserv67.tgz xshare67.tgz
ldconfig /usr/local/lib /usr/X11R6/lib
If you would like to test for the presence of X windows on OpenBSD, try using the following shell snippet:
if [ -d /usr/X11R6/bin/ ] && [ -f /usr/X11R6/bin/xinit ]; then
echo "X windows has been installed."
else
echo "This is a command line only system."
fi

Answer 2

The xbase file set can be extracted manually via the following commands:
cd /
curl -LO https://ftp.usa.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/6.7/amd64/xbase67.tgz
tar xzvf xbase67.tgz
Note: this is the mirror used in the vagrant sources.

If you care about security enough to use OpenBSD, then you really shouldn't grab new package sets from the internet without also checking the hashes/signatures are valid. Try this script:
#!/bin/ksh
echo -n "Downloading ... "
curl --silent --fail --fail-early -O "https://ftp.usa.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/7.0/amd64/SHA256.sig" -O "https://ftp.usa.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/7.0/amd64/x{base,font,serv,share}70.tgz"
if [ $? != 0 ]; then
echo "X windows download failed. Terminating."
exit 1
fi
echo "complete."
signify -Cp /etc/signify/openbsd-70-base.pub -x SHA256.sig xbase70.tgz xfont70.tgz xserv70.tgz xshare70.tgz
if [ $? != 0 ]; then
echo "X windows signature verification failed. Terminating."
exit 1
fi
tar -z -x -C / -f xbase70.tgz && tar -z -x -C / -f xfont70.tgz && tar -z -x -C / -f xserv70.tgz && tar -z -x -C / -f xshare70.tgz
if [ $? != 0 ]; then
echo "X windows installation failed. Terminating."
exit 1
fi
echo "Installation complete. Happy hacking."
On the other hand if you just want a one liners:
# Install just x11 base set.
sudo ksh -c 'curl --silent https://ftp.usa.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/7.0/amd64/xbase70.tgz | gzip -d -c | tar -x -C / -f - '
# Install all the x11 sets.
sudo ksh -c 'curl --silent https://ftp.usa.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/7.0/amd64/xbase70.tgz | gzip -d -c | tar -x -C /-f - '
You can omit the sudo portion if you are already logged in as root. And for the vagrant folks, the lazy version looks:
# Install just x11 base set from the host, to a vagrant guest.
vagrant ssh -c "sudo ksh -c 'curl --silent https://ftp.usa.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/7.0/amd64/xbase70.tgz | gzip -d -c | tar -x -C / -f - '"
# Install all the x11 sets from the host, to a vagrant guest.
vagrant ssh -c "sudo ksh -c 'curl --silent -O \"https://ftp.usa.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/7.0/amd64/x{base,font,serv,share}70.tgz\" && tar -z -x -C / -f xbase70.tgz && tar -z -x -C / -f xfont70.tgz && tar -z -x -C / -f xserv70.tgz && tar -z -x -C / -f xshare70.tgz'"
