Hi, I agree with you and i started to work on that for Debian packages. I can currently create the following packages: oscar, oscar-bin (typically OSCAR scripts), liboscar (OSCAR libs), oscar-base-server, oscar-base, and oscar-base-client. The problem, at least for Debian, is that it is really better to install OSCAR stuff directly into the system (i.e., not in /opt), so i had to create patches. The current code also still suffer of important limitations to create those packages. One example: http://svn.oscar.openclustergroup.org/trac/oscar/ticket/416
Anyway, if you want to work on this point, let me know, i can explain what i did, give the list and details about packages i have for Debian. I think we should have similar approaches for Debian and RPM based systems. Also note that everything i did for Debian on that topic is in pkgsrc/tools/oscar-debian On Saturday 15 September 2007 15:52, DongInn Kim wrote: > Geoffroy. Yes, that is exactly what I am thinking.
