Splitting the RPMs up was a *huge* step in the right direction. I think my last emails on the topic relayed why we aren't able to just directly import spec files over and over again, so once we have released tarballs and a single spec import (well, if ever on the spec import, a lot of times we just write our own that does what we want), then we are good. Beyond that, future thinking, is just that a collection of known interoperable tarballs is best for us. So, as Roland has mentioned many time, what's needed from me is a release, not a distribution. And the release need only consist of: dapl-2.0.3 + dapl-1.2.2 + ibverbs-1.1 + mthca-1.0.4 + blah, blah, blah are all known to work properly together. From that point, I just grab the appropriate tarballs that contain the releases mentioned, and I build them all through the build system and that's our release cycle. > Tziporet > > > _______________________________________________ > ewg mailing list > ewg@lists.openfabrics.org > http://lists.openfabrics.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ewg -- Doug Ledford <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> GPG KeyID: CFBFF194 http://people.redhat.com/dledford Infiniband specific RPMs available at http://people.redhat.com/dledford/Infiniband
