If you can manage it (with xen?), I suggest building on a fully virtualised RHL<ancient> and RHEL-clone<recent,recent>. You don't need to distribute binaries for both, just verify the build and execution for both before releasing binaries. I s'pose one could use recent Fedora rather than RHEL-Clone. -- Cheers John -- spambait [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please do not reply off-list ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 -------------------------------------------------------- This message w/attachments (message) may be privileged, confidential or proprietary, and if you are not an intended recipient, please notify the sender, do not use or share it and delete it.
