I wonder if there could be a way to build a 'userspace' version of fedora/ubuntu or something with faster updates where the entire thing lives in its own path with machine-processed package updates to keep it there. That is, use some other distro's work for the overall internal consistency and dependency management but don't let it break your system stability when you just need to run that one package that needs a newer library/module than CentOS/EPEL provide. It seems like there should be a more lightweight way to do that than running a whole virtual machine. Maybe the concept for RHEL software collections could be generalized to handle any disto's rpm/deb repos in their own area. -- Les Mikesell lesmikes...@gmail.com _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
