Title: Re: [Oscar-devel] distro directories
Hey guys:
 
It is not always <distro><version>-<arch> though, some times it could be just <distro>, or <distro><version>.  I think this could be cleaned up a bit so that we are more certain of the directories there, any opinions about this??  So basically what I'm saying is dictate that it is _always_ <distro><version>-<arch> even it may not be necessary and perhaps we can just symlink the directories if they work across the same distro (eg. noarch)?  This is possible with subversion right?
 
Regarding SuSE, the folks at Seneca College have checked in some code into tmp/:

http://svn.oscar.openclustergroup.org/oscar/tmp/suse-seneca/
 
The plan is to wait for 5.0 to branch, then they'll create their own branch (oscar-suse) then start merging their code in.  It will be supporting OpenSuSE 10.0.
 
Cheers,
 
Bernard

No, no update info. During one release the APIs are not supposed to change
(glibc stays the same, for example), only the bugs are fixed. That means if
you need update-specific packages, something's badly broken.

yes. 9.3 is a version number, not an update.

But where did you get the nice sles and suse support? Could you include it
into OSCAR? ;-) Just kidding...
