To clarify, Debian has serveral different distributions at any given time. Typically experimental, unstable, testing, stable and oldstable. Lenny is the current stable distribution. > In my opinion the SuSE build service as it is now is NO option: > - There are no usable packages for over half a year now.

Well, I was suggesting fixing the packages on the open build service. The main advantage that I was thinking of is that (in theory) they do builds for multiple architectures automatically. > @simon: Perhaps you want to host the packages?

I'm happy to host them, but only if you don't want to. -- Simon Horman VA Linux Systems Japan K.K., Sydney, Australia Satellite Office H: www.vergenet.net/~horms/ W: www.valinux.co.jp/en _______________________________________________ Linux-HA mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linux-ha.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-ha See also: http://linux-ha.org/ReportingProblems
