I would like to: 1.) Keep the format the same for all OSes, for what goes up on SourceForge for the releases. 2.) Avoid having to build a zillion different Linux variations. What I mean by that is, I'd rather avoid putting up all these different packagaes: ooRexx-4.2.0-6212.fedora11.x86_64.rpm ooRexx-4.2.0-6212.fedora13.x86_64.rpm ooRexx-4.2.0-6212.fedora14.x86_64.rpm ooRexx-4.2.0-6212.kubuntu87.x86_64.deb ooRexx-4.2.0-6212.ubuntu87.x86_64.deb ooRexx-4.2.0-6212.kubuntu90.x86_64.deb ooRexx-4.2.0-6212.ubuntu91.x86_64.deb And have people asking us: I using Fedora 12 and there is no RPM for me. What should I do? When any one of the rpms listed above will work on Fedora 12. -- Mark Miesfeld > > I think this gives a lot more information about the RPM and its intended > target > operating system.
