Hello,
We have updated the server that pushes out the security errata and builds the
repoview area's.
Along with the server update, we have updated createrepo and repoview.
createrepo is now being run with the -d option which "generates sqlite
databases for use with yum."
I know that several people had asked for this.
We have also updated repoview to version 0.6.4.
rpmforge have a package of repoview 0.5.2 but I can't find a
package of 0.6.4 or an SL package of repoview. Should those
of use building local repos be using it ?
This has a different
template. It also puts the corresponding repoview web areas in a different
place. Instead of putting the web pages in <area>/repodata they are now in
<area>/repoview
For instance
http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/5x/i386/updates/security/repoview/
http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/4x/i386/errata/SL/RPMS/repoview/
http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/309/i386/errata/SL/RPMS/repoview/
I haven't remove the old repoview area's, that are in the repodata directory,
but I plan on doing that in a couple weeks. Probably just replacing their
main index.html web page with a redirecting web page.
