Hi everyone,
I'm using a program called "depot", which I think used to be included
with IBM/Transarc AFS.
I'm planning to migrated from RHEL5 with cfengine to RHEL6 with
puppet. I use depot to manage many folders
of symlinks. What would you recommend as a replacement to depot?
What version are you running?
The version we are using is 5.15 from 2005, but also have the source
for 5.50 version from 2008.
Its README file lists these (which are not found):
ftp.andrew.cmu.edu:/pub/depot/depot.tar.gz

We only use it for links in AFS, not on local machines.
depot library (032) $Revision: 5.50 $ Compiled on: Wed Mar 24 12:04:03

We also use depot to manage a farm of links in AFS, not on the local
machine. We use depot to manage software that uses an installer, instead
of a package (RPM).
I ran a quick sum of the used space for all of volumes that are linked
from /opt/coe/bin, and the total comes to 988GB. We don't have enough
space on most of the workstation hard drives for that much software. on
top of that, we would lose the convenience of AFS ACL's, which are used
for some restricted-access programs.
