Stew,

I didn't do an extensive analysis, but a quick comparison against my
local repository gives 239 of those in mian I don't have, so apparently
they aren't too critical, since I build ISOs from my local repository:


You have your own repository? In which way does it differ from the one on
kenobi (and the mirrors)?



It differs as the list below. I build things here and upload to Paris, since the Paris PPC machine went away some time ago.

hmmm...

They have an alpha machine in the office in Paris, dusting away somewhere. After 9.1 is out I hope somebody can find a spare hour to install it to a usefull state and perhaps let me put my rebuilding stuff on there. The box is so much faster than my little alpha...

I build ISOs here
from what I have, since it would seem doubly crazy to download the stuff
back here, build ISOs and send them back to Paris.

I don't build ISO's: the alpha port is not "supported" --> can't be promoted --> is only used by a few people. Alpha is dead anyway (that's what the intel marketing folks want you to beleive).

Anyway, iIt's a prove of concept thing for me.

Alpha, i586 and src.rpm get mirrorred to my machine every hour, the build script builds what hasn't been built before (or hasn't been rebuilt in the last XX days). Then the sync script uploads the packages missing in the alpha port. Circle complete. For me the distro in Paris is leading.
