I made the same suggestion a while back, but it was shot down by Dann. And I didn't argue, because it seemed like a good reason. However, if we get agreement from those on the devel list, I'm ok with it. -Brian Thus spake Bernard Li ([EMAIL PROTECTED]): Hey Brian: May I suggest that we chang

2006-03-24 Thread Brian Elliott Finley
That is an interesting idea. I do believe that not needing root to build should be a requirement of ours. It has, however, been a lower priority problem to solve, and thus has lingered in our build system for a long time. Are there any other clever ways of solving this problem? Preferably wher

[Sisuite-devel] Building on Red Hat

2006-03-24 Thread Brian Elliott Finley
So, After a nice long hiatus, I once again have a Red Hat build system installed in my lab. I'd like to use it to be sure that things build properly on Red Hat as well as on Debian/Ubuntu, where I do my primary development. And, as many of you do SystemImager builds on Red Hat machines, rather

Hey Andrea: When you get a chance, can you test this patch on SuSE and if it works commit it into trunk? I don't have any SuSE test servers right now, otherwise I would probably do it myself... :-) BTW, is there a chance that af_packet resides in /lib64/ ? Thanks, Bernard > -Original Mes

This afternoon I happened to be on a system that only had command line access in a data center so I used links to access the sisuite.org website to look for an excellent article on netbooting. I was very surprised to see a TOTALLY different, much older website than what I had looked at a little bit

Hi Andrea: I think I have a working implementation which will check to see if the system is SuSE, if so, add the BuildRequires to be python-xml, otherwise, use PyXML. I just wanted to make sure that PyXML is sufficient for what we need. Can you give me something to test on my Red Hat system? Th
