Convince someone to put it in unsupported. That's the only other way of doing it. I refuse to put contribs into updates.No way. If we start doing it for this one just as a "why not" then there is a future expectation to do it all the time. Policy is no updates for contribs, and that means *nothing*.Hrmph!Besides, how difficult is it to grab the mhonarc srpm and rebuild it on
whatever platform you want? Probably not too hard...
That is true enough, but it quite defeats the purpose and functionality of urpmi. This is a giant regression back to: for host in $ALL_HOSTS; do scp /usr/src/RPM/RPMS/i586/foo.rpm $host:/tmp ssh root@$host "rpm -Uvh /tmp/foo.rpm; rm /tmp/foo.rpm" [ sit there and put in password for every single host ] done
But then, I don't think unsupported is urpmiable anyways.
