I wanted to give a status on this work: Completed: - tar.bz2 files for rpm5, smart and createrepo. - an IPS repo containing rpm5.
These are on my computer, and I've tested these on clean boot environments and everything works well. I've tested a build of nginx across boot environments, and all's well on that front. What's next: - rpm dev tools - I intend to have a look at what Fedora publishes, and see which of these we should take. - Publish an IPS repo at ips.belenix.org to contain rpm5 - Publish an RPM repo at belenix.org to contain smart and createrepo For the belenix.org work, I'll need access from Moinak/Angad. I expect that the tar.bz2 files would get uploaded only by Tuesday night India time. I also tried to build smartos, but am facing some errors. I think that providing rpm5 + smart on SmartOS would be useful to have, and could become the foundation of "Belenix - Data Centre Edition" (or something like that). -- Sriram On Tue, Jul 26, 2011 at 11:33 PM, Sriram Narayanan <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi everyone: > > A colleague at work is interested in contributing to Belenix and asked > me about the roadmap.
