Hi all,

If you talk about this page :
http://www.mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=updates_policy&s[]=update&s[]=policy <http://www.mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=updates_policy&s[]=update&s[]=policy>

I think that I'm the stupid guy. I don't really understand where is the issue with
this page and e17.

I understand that e17 don't provide "stable" release with tarball. But I never see
a "mageia forbid to package software without stable release".

And if yes, I mean, if it's what you want, how I can use E17 on mageia ?
(others than completly old and obsolete tarball).
To be honest, most E17 users i personally know use
something like http://omicron.homeip.net/projects/#easy_e17.sh
and compile and keep it up-to-date for themselves.

As all e packages provide SPEC templates for rpm builds,
maybe we could whip up some script which eases compilation
and installation of E17 packages, similar to nvidia-mgabuild.sh
for Nvidia drivers from Anssi.
Would be unsupported, but would provide a way for E17
users to have their preferred desktop and keep it
up-to-date as they wish?


regards,
trem

I am a little bit stupid, but can you explain how it solve the issue of
not bypassing our update policy ?
