I assume that means that you cannot install both the compiled qmail and 
source at the same time?

No, it means that you cannot distribute binary (compiled) RPMs.   So 
while .src.rpm files are OK, i386.rpm or .x86_64.rpm is not allowed.


The only way I could think of around this would be to distribute 
tarballs of the source as .i386.rpm and have the postinstall script 
actually compile and install it.

I was actually thinking about distributing unpatched binaries for all
djb licensed stuff and have yum patch them using binary diffs.

Seems a bit complicated and a lot could go wrong thoguh . . .

Re: [qmailtoaster] QMail toaster yum repository?

2007-04-26 Thread PakOgah

Hai,
can we do the repos just for other packages which not came from DJB
like simscan, vpopmail, clamav, spamassassins, squirrelmail,control-panel
zlib, qmailmrtg.. and.. autorespond what else ?? (are courier-* also)

I know these ones its from djb..
qmail, ezmlm, djbdns, ucspi-tcp,  what else...

so for packages from DJB yes we only can donwnload the src... but for 
others I think we can create the yum repos..

I could provide a space on my webhost for mirroring it.

btw : at least can we make yum repos for clamav and spamassasins ? 
because those two package seems has a faster update.


thx

Re: [qmailtoaster] QMail toaster yum repository?

2007-04-26 Thread Johannes Weberhofer, Weberhofer GmbH

If you are interested: I have repos for SuSE 9.3 i586, openSuSE 10.1 
i586/x86_86 and openSuSE 10.2 i586/x86_86 - for internal use. I could remove 
the DJB things and offer a link to the packages.

Best regards,
Johannes Weberhofer

We've all been drooling, Aaron. ;)

The problem is somewhat twofold. The first being that repos would need to be
built for each distro/version that is supported. That's not too big of a deal.

The primary issue is DJB's licensing. While many of the toaster packages
could be made yum-able, the DJB portions (qmail, daemontools, ucspi-tcp)
would need to be distributed as source. That's just the way DJB chooses to
make his software available to the community.
