Hi TomP! Good questions all, I hope this email clarifies my earlier brevity! No part of LinuxCNC uses Redis, and none ever has. If someone has a use for Redis, it is available completely independently of LinuxCNC for Ubuntu Lucid and later (though not for Ubuntu Hardy). > I was hoping to use the tool change / tool information aspects. LinuxCNC's tool information does not use Redis in any way, and it never did. > This announcement does not explain what redis was for, > and so does not touch on what is being lost. Nothing is being lost. Redis is not used by LinuxCNC. It was added in preparation for future work on LinuxCNC that would have made use of Redis. This future work hasn't happened, and it's unclear if/when it will happen. If changes are made to LinuxCNC to use Redis in the future, we'll make sure Redis is available on the proper platforms by way of a separate debian package. -- Sebastian Kuzminsky ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites.
