Thank you for reminding me that I have been forgetting to post updates. I have been absolutely consumed with work on getting RHEL bits into Conary repositories in support of rPath's commercial support for RHEL 4 and 5. (A good deal of that work will apply to boots, but that fact hasn't made boots packages magically appear.) While I have done a bootstrap import of a complete set of RPMs for the f12 release as previously mentioned, the repository is not publicly available for infrastructure reasons -- in order to make building go faster, I'm using systems that are located in close physical proximity within rPath's network to get started. Once I've completed the initial import, I'll move the repository to a public location for further imports... I'm hoping to work on this over vacation. One of the biggest things for doing an import beyond the initial f12 packages is the bodhi integration for ordered updates. I can point mirrorball at base f12 and it happily imports it, but to then import all the updates in order we really need bodhi integration. Bertux hasn't had a chance to do this because we haven't had a chance to merge our mirrorball branches to make the interface public. My mistake. So, Bertux: I just pushed the code to a branch: hg clone http://bitbucket.org/johnsonm/mirrorball-boots/ That's our latest branch that we haven't yet been able to merge back into trunk. (Really, it will become our trunk once we merge our dependent infrastructure with it, but with distributed version control the idea of what "trunk" is depends on your point of view. :) Now it's ready for bodhi integration! :) _______________________________________________ Foresight-devel mailing list Foresight-devel@lists.rpath.org http://lists.rpath.org/mailman/listinfo/foresight-devel
