Hi Stephen, would you maybe have had the possibility to look into a rpm for EPEL7? (not sure about either grammar or EPEL naming ... i think i am asking for something i can install via yum :)
I was just asking something in a different thread which got a nice and comprehensive reply by Christian Hammond ... also concerning a RB 3.x for yum ... quoting from (https://groups.google.com/d/msg/reviewboard-dev/2MuigbF_-X8/wU-aPDPKBgAJ) > For c), I'm not sure of the current status there. This is not a Review > Board issue exactly, but rather a packaging issue, which I think is being > solved now? Basically, we need some older versions of some modules for very > good reasons I don't want to go into at the moment (various > compatibility... things...) and this makes packaging a bit harder. I think > that's being addressed through a new modular packaging system in Fedora. > Stephen can go into details more. > This quote is about helping Reviewboard 3.x being made available for Redhat rpm yum stuff ... as he mentioned that you might comment on that, i'd like to take the opportunity to ask you about it :) Sadly, i am just a consumer and probably not versed enough to be helpful concerning your plea for help in supporting this kind of backporting stuff that is needed to make RB 3.x available via EPEL. I tried to install RB in a newer Version by following the instructions using pip but that lead to just a bunch of errors that i could not comprehend ... after that unsuccessful attempt i had the machine get reverted to previous "untouched" state and afterwards installed the rpm for 2.5.17 ... and now, like stated, i am thumbing my nose at all those nice stuff that is coming in with the 3.x releases :o) cheers Daniel Am Freitag, 20.
