Hi René and T2 team,
I did quick tests and so far i encountered these:
when starting sshd service, got 'Privilege separation user sshd does
not exist', can be solved by adding sshd user or by editing
sshd_config, look for line UsePrivilegeSeparation.
Should be fixed by also building the user and group lists for cross builds:
Committed revision 34577.
when trying to change password, passwd:module is unknown, this look
likes its caused by missing pam_cracklib.so file
also perl install is somewhat broken, Can't locate File/Glob.pm

Hi all,
yes, I know, it's been some time since the last T2 binary release.
First the university mirror shuffling out T2 binaries at TB scale was
to be removed, and then we just kept being very, very, ueber busy. I
even got married in the meantime:

:-)
Another good thing is, T2 progress always was rock solid, as our
impressive commit graph does show:

ChangeLog:
http://svn.exactcode.de/ChangeLog-t2
I now started seeding 8.0-rc ISOs for i486, x86-64, ppc, and ppc64.
They should show up on mirrors, soon.
The sparc64 result has hickups with SILO being not properly loaded by
the OpenFirmware, that's being under review. The sparc64 iso fill
follow as soon as this ahs been fixed (oh, and the ppc32 ISO is not
yet tested, will do on my home Apple Cube tonight, but I do not
expect much troube).
On a side note: the minimal builds have slightly changed. They are
now *all-cross-built*. Thanks to the most advanced cross compile
support out there that T2 does offer. This is mostly to avoid waiting
a week for my last, aging UltraSPARC @360MHz to build thru it, ...
and delaying releases anymore.
Another side note: we're going to only release minimal binary builds
in the future for multiple reasons: one is that most people only need
parts of the X.org, KDE, GNOME etc. bits, and so everyone can build
the rest and save traffic, another is to cut on release cycles: we'll
be going to have minimal ISO builds on a regular, dependable basis,
just like (for example) OpenBSD.
Have fun and a good weekend,
Yours (truly),
René
