Rich-- Not an unreasonable assumption :) But Shawn is right. For now,
anyway, pkg-discuss is the place.
I'd like to have some sort of "having trouble?" link which would help
in troubleshooting, but we're not quite there yet.
Shawn-- this might be a potential enhancement for publisher/0-- where
the user should seek technical assistance with connectivity (or other)
problems for said repository. That could be a webpage, or a url,
or something else I suppose. Sort of like the old HOTLINE field
in SVR4 packaging, except that was useless.
It could also be rendered on the web app at some point, too.
Suggest a name and we can add it to the pkg.client.publisher.Repository
object which in turn would have it go into the publisher/0 output and be
useable by the BUI.
Perhaps:
maintainer: John Smith <jsmith AT foo com>
support_uri: http://helpme/
?
Cheers,
-Shawn
