Category: Candidate Group: 4.2 >Status: Open Resolution: Postponed Priority: 5 Submitted By: Thomas Naughton (naughtont) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: oscar-release RPM Initial Comment: During an SSS teleconf, Paul Hargrove ask if there was a way to have true RPM-level dependence on a specific OSCAR version. He mentioned the 'redhat-release' approach. This seems easy enough and would help some pkg authors to include distro specific (and named) RPMS for oscar. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Thomas Naughton (naughtont) Date: 2005-06-20 16:54 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=288102 Changing "Status" back to "Open" -- otherwise we'll never see it again, the "Postponed" entry in "Resolution" should suffice. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Thomas Naughton (naughtont) Date: 2005-06-20 16:53 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=288102 It has been decided that this "feature" raises more issues than it solves given the current installation mechanism and upgrade capabilities (none) provided by OSCAR. It is somewhat misleading or possibly mistakable as to what this could me w.r.t. the installation status of OSCAR since OSCAR is only fully installed at the end of the wizard process...too late for folks to RPM level checks. There are better ways to enforce checking at the OPkg (meta oscar pkg) level. It was decided that we would postpone this feature request until such time as we're able to install oscar (the core/libs/oca/etc., not nec. packages/) via an RPM. In that way we will install oscar via an RPM and it will be the release/version entry in the RPM DB. Therefore, I'm marking this a "Pending" & "Postponed" until we have such capabilities.
