Hi All,

 

Yesterday I tried to update one of my OF boxes and I had to realize that
many packages were removed after "conary updateall". I even tried the update
on a pure installation, but the result was the same. At this time
iscsi-target, RAA and several other packages cannot be used at all which
makes OF pretty useless.

 

So obviously my questions are:

 

1.       Were those packages been removed on purpose ?

2.       When can we expect the availability of the same packages again ?

3.       Global announcement regarding such changes would be very useful to
all OF users even if the software is free. Can you implement such
announcement for the future ? (perhaps on this mailing list or main web
site)

 

Another topic.

 

OF distribution is still missing proper VMware support. At this time I can't
see any VMware drivers & tools included neither on Conary nor ESX Image. If
someone knows a good and painless way to implement those packages
(especially the optimized VMware network driver) then please post the
suggestions here on the same mailing list. Running OF on the top of VMware
is terribly slow at the moment because the lack of memory and other
component optimization.

 

Regards,

 

Andrey
