Unfortunately I did actually mean the latter :) In particular we want a config file that can have different options for read/write splitting. We just realised a perl script that creates packages out of a Symfony2 application [0] (not for inclusion into actual Debian though, just for deployment) and realised that it would be awesome if dbconfig-common could do this. I can understand that since it's not really for Debian itself, it's a bit hard to prioritise this. OTOH, there's also the argument that anyone who is setting up HA or LB should be able to edit config files and set up servers themselves :) 0: https://github.com/mjollnir/sf2debpkg#readme Cheers, P -- /* --------------------------------------------------- Penny Leach | http://mjollnir.org | http://she.geek.nz GPG: 8347 00FC B5BF 6CC0 0FC9 AB90 1875 120A A30E C22B --------------------------------------------------- */
