So I have at one point had this going via Beanstalk, using Amazon Instance (2013.09) ami-35792c5c . At the time this ebextension scripts worked great when placed in the root of your repo in .ebextensions/
00_repo.config
packages:
rpm:
pgdg-redhat93-9.3-1: 'http://yum.postgresql.org/9.3/redhat/rhel-6-x86_64/pgdg-redhat93-9.3-1.noarch.rpm'
remi: 'http://rpms.famillecollet.com/enterprise/remi-release-6.rpm'
files:
"/etc/yum.repos.d/pgdg-93-redhat.repo":
mode: "000644"
owner: root
group: root

So now when I use the same instance and launch my environment, I get this error regarding a dependency.
Error: Package: gdal-libs-1.9.2-5.rhel6.x86_64 (pgdg93)
Requires: libpoppler.so.5()(64bit)
You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
Looks like the same repo is now returning a newer version of poppler, it was 12.x and now its 22.x and gdal needs the old version.
I also tested this out on an EC2 Instance and got the same error. But then I ran into this document from amazon on locking an AMI to its original repository version.
So adding this to User Options via the EC2 Console when you launch fixes the problem on EC2:
#cloud-config
repo_releasever: 2014.03
What is the best way to always have this option when your Beanstalk launches the EC2 Instance on your behalf? I read about cloud-init and perhaps a script deployed via ebextensions would be the best bet?
Any insight on this is appreciated, thanks.
So I now have a working ebextensions workflow on 2013.09 stack ami ami-35792c5c. For the 2014.09 stack see the other solution. The solution below works with postgis by installing the needed gdal component, 00_repo.config needs to look like this:
files:
"/etc/yum.repos.d/pgdg-93-redhat.repo":
mode: "000644"
owner: root
group: root
content: |
[pgdg93]
name=PostgreSQL 9.3 $releasever - $basearch

gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-PGDG-93
commands:
epel_repo:
command: yum-config-manager -y --enable epel
remi_repo:
command: yum-config-manager -y --enable remi
packages:
rpm:
pgdg-redhat93-9.3-1: 'http://yum.postgresql.org/9.3/redhat/rhel-6-x86_64/pgdg-redhat93-9.3-1.noarch.rpm'
remi: 'http://rpms.famillecollet.com/enterprise/remi-release-6.rpm'
qt4-devel: 'http://mirror.centos.org/centos/6/os/x86_64/Packages/qt-4.6.2-28.el6_5.x86_64.rpm'
The 2nd extension stays in tact. This works on Amazon Instance (2013.09) ami-35792c5c, I haven't tried the newer containers yet with it.
Alternative 1:
If you want less dependencies on repos / rpms from the ebextensions file, you could upload all required rpms to S3 and update the ebextensions 'packages' to point to your s3 rpms. Setup your S3 bucket for public get access using CORS headers.
Alternative 2:
Create a custom AMI where you compile all dependencies from source. This way there will be no rpm conflicts and you don't have to temper with the default repos supplied by the AMI you are customizing. See this answer: Configuring Amazon Elastic Beanstalk with PostGIS
