Hi all, A bit of historical background; I started packaging the missing bits of OFED 1.3 for debian etch for my own private use, as I needed some bits that were not present. (openSM, srp-tools, and a set of OFED 1.3 kernel modules+headers that I could build lustre against, which was the ultimate aim of the exercise). Now that OFED 1.4 + lenny has been released, my aim is to build on that work and push the remaining unpackaged bits of OFED 1.4 bits upstream. I am not repackaging any of the bits that Roland has already done. (in fact, my packages depend on them). (for the record, the unpackaged bits of OFED which I now have packages for are below) dapl_2.0.15-1 ibutils_1.2-1 infiniband-diags_1.4.4-1 libibcm_1.0.4 libibcommon_1.1.2 libibmad_1.2.3-1 libibumad_1.2.3-1 libnes_0.5 libsdp_1.1.99 mstflint_1.4 ofa-kernel_1.4 ofed_1.4 ofed-docs opensm_3.2.5 perftest_1.2 qlvnictools_0.0.1 rds-tools-1.4 sdpnetstat_1.60 srptools_0.0.4 tvflash_0.9.0 Cheers, Guy -- Dr. Guy Coates, Informatics System Group The Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute, Hinxton, Cambridge, CB10 1HH, UK Tel: +44 (0)1223 834244 x 6925 Fax: +44 (0)1223 496802 -- The Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute is operated by Genome Research Limited, a charity registered in England with number 1021457 and a company registered in England with number 2742969, whose registered office is 215 Euston Road, London, NW1 2BE. _______________________________________________ general mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openfabrics.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/general To unsubscribe, please visit http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general
