An RPM, having been built once, can be distributed to many machines at your site. They also have advantages with regard to tracking the software on the machine; permitting clean uninstalls; permitting extra queries ("what files are in this package?", "what package owns this file?"), etc.
I said that only because I believed that I had to do "configuer/make..." for the kernel module., but Derek gave me the solution to avoid that steps. In that case, I agree with you (although there are around the world some makefiles which provide a "make uninstall". It is also convenient to install on several machines with only a "make install", provided you have an nfs mount of your server) cheers, -- Pierre Frenkiel _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
