 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.
 


If someone builds packages, I'm happy to mirror them.

 However, we can not support all distributions like Scientific Linux 4.
 But you could easily provide such repositories, we would be happy to
 mirror them.

[Ekiga-list] Ekiga for stable OS releases

2007-02-06 Thread Alan Sill
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.
