You are correct, packaging guidelines would prohibit bundling in libraries. But with over 9000 packages in the repositories, developers and packagers have found that it's not (in general) that hard a bar to get over. At a quick glance:
Euca2ools: You package in python-boto, which is already in Fedora. It should be trivial to stop bundling this, and simply RPM requires: it. Your package has a requirement on m2crypto, which is already in Fedora, so that's easy. Eucalyptus: You bundle in axis2c and rampartc, and neither are in Fedora, but you package them separately so it's quite possible they could be included in Fedora directly. Eucalyptus-common-java has a bunch of JARs, most of which you shouldn't be bundling I think. But that's the worst of it. -- Matt Domsch Technology Strategist Dell | Office of the CTO -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of graziano obertelli Sent: Monday, August 30, 2010 11:23 AM To: Fedora Cloud SIG Subject: Re: Eucalyptus 2.0 and Fedora Of course we would love to do so. My understanding is that out packages won't be included as they are, since we package a lot of our dependencies into them and we don't have the expertise or capabilities to package and maintain all the dependencies. If I'm mistaken, and such pacakges are allowed. please let me know and we'll readily start the process. cheers, graziano On Mon, Aug 30, 2010 at 10:30:08AM -0500, [email protected] wrote: > Will you be submitting your packages into the standard Fedora package > collection, as you have with Ubuntu? > > Thanks, > Matt > > -- > Matt Domsch > Technology Strategist > Dell | Office of the CTO > > > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] > [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of graziano > obertelli > Sent: Sunday, August 29, 2010 9:47 PM > To: Fedora Cloud SIG > Subject: Eucalyptus 2.0 and Fedora > > Hello, > > I just wanted to mentioned that with the release of Eucalyptus 2.0 [1] we are > now providing packages for Fedora.
