We been working at making the install a little simpler (and quicker!) at
present they are based on the CVS version - eventually, I should think that
they will be the packages...
I am pretty much on the way of building a script to auto generate most of them
as well, which will be part of nadmin (mainly for 'somewhere safe to put it')
reasons..
The concept is
For redhat
(the generator script)
- have a list of required rpms
- find out what versions are in the 'official distribtution',
(the install script)
- install all of the official packages required to build midgard
obviously for debian, it just does an apt-get!
This appears to work in most cases, I have set up Debian Potato, Debian Woody,
redhat 6.2 and redhat 7.1 in vmware and have completed compiles on all
machines..
We are looking at a very automated install as far as possible for 'standard'
systems..
The only problems we have had so far - are dbinstall, could do with using
$ARGV[0].... [2] to enable it to work unattended.. (it also uses 'our $var'
somewhere which flakes out on some versions of perl.)
We will be looking at building the 'staging live', and auto apache conf
builder into it. -
