Category: Installation Group: 4.2 Status: Open Resolution: None >Priority: 8 Submitted By: Erich Focht (efocht) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: ia32el RPM missing from Centos Initial Comment: Image build on a Centos 4.1 ia64 (RHEL4 clone) fails because the package ia32el isn't included in CentOS. I think the reason for not including this is that the license of this package in RedHat-EL4 is LGPL/Commercial. The ia32el package contains the ia32 execution layer needed for running ia32 applications. This is some sort of an emulator and I bet the rights for the package are more in the hands of Intel than those of RedHat. We can solve this in 2 ways: - Leave the package out of the rpmlist (which would be fine with me, recently I didn't see anybody trying to run ia32 applications on Itaniums) - Create a centos-ia64 rpmlist without this package and put an advice in the manual to select this rpmlist when creating an image on centos-4-ia64. ScientificLinux includes the package, by the way. A third solution could be to add a download link to the manual for Centos users. How should we proceed? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Erich Focht (efocht) Date: 2005-08-30 19:54 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=338721 this is a show-stopper for centos-ia64, so I raise the priority. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=109368&aid=1276855&group_id=9368 ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is Sponsored by the Better Software Conference & EXPO September 19-22, 2005 * San Francisco, CA * Development Lifecycle Practices Agile & Plan-Driven Development * Managing Projects & Teams * Testing & QA Security * Process Improvement & Measurement * http://www.sqe.com/bsce5sf _______________________________________________ Oscar-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/oscar-devel
