Re: [Ekiga-list] Ekiga for stable OS releases
Hi, Yes, this is exactly the problem! The snapshots do not have anything for the stable branch of the "Red Hat"-like distributions. Fedora Core is based on the unstable branch and is also no longer supported. CentOS and RHEL (as well as Scientific Linux, which is quite like CentOS and is provided by the large labs such as CERN and Fermilab) use the stable branch. The FC4 variant does not install or play well on the stable-branch distributions. We could boil down this request to provide a CentOS 4 - compatible snapshot rpm package. That would be very helpful.

But you could easily provide such repositories, we would be happy to mirror them. -- _ Damien Sandras (o- //\Ekiga Softphone : http://www.ekiga.org/ v_/_ NOVACOM : http://www.novacom.be/ FOSDEM : http://www.fosdem.org/ SIP Phone : sip:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ ekiga-list mailing list ekiga-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/ekiga-list
[Ekiga-list] Ekiga for stable OS releases
One big barrier to adoption of Ekiga on our Linux systems is that we tend to use the "stable" branch rather than the "latest-greatest" developmental one of our OS installations. Our current systems are based on CentOS 4.4, Scientific Linux 4, and RHEL 4 with the former being as bleeding-edge as we become. Is it possible to set up download repositories, preferably yum- accessible, for instalaltions of Ekiga and its associated dependencies? Having been through the painful compilation process more than once over the past few years, I can say that compiling from source on our (many, widely distributed) client machines is not an acceptable option and we would like to see a release system aimed at adoption and not experimentation.
