Hi,
I got this auto-reply. The most open source projects have at least one
open mailing list for user questions. But your project has only one
and which is closed. :-(
I cannot say I have ever seen an open source project mailing list
(or any other mailing list in the recent years, for that matter)
that allows posts from non-subscribers, purely due to spam volumes
that this results in.
My view is that anybody who cares enough about an answer to their
question should also care enough to spend 30 seconds subscribing,
before they ask the question, and another 30 seconds unsubscribing
once they have gotten their answer. If they don't care enough to
do that, I don't see why anybody should care enough to spend
what is likely to be much longer than that answering their question.
I have included the list with this reply, but unless the responders
hit reply-to-all you won't see their responses except by looking
at the list archives.
I have a pre-usage question and IMO makes it no sense to be subscribed
as long I don’t use RedSleeve it . So how can I get an answer on my
question below?
Most questions in the world of ARM Linux distributions of today are
pre-usage, usually related to requesting help with getting things
running on a system that doesn't have a pre-generated image already
(and given the number of ARM boards out there, images will never
be available pre-generated for more than a handful of the most popular
devices).
I have checked the repositories and find ipa-client and
ipa-admin-tools, but there is ipa-server? The Raspberry Pi would be
a good choice for a replica server in my environment but RedSleeve
7.1 is the only distribution which includes a to CentOS 7.1
compatible version but only the client. Fedora 20 contains only
FreeIPA 3.x and Fedora > 20 supports only Raspberry PI 2. CentOS
offers also only an ARMv7 image and this is pre-alpha. So RedSleeve
would be the right choice if it would include the server part :-(.
Any plan to add the server part? IMO is any server function a
must-have for an enterprise system ;-).
The primary reason it isn't included is this snippet from the
source package .spec file:
%ifarch x86_64 %{ix86}
# Nothing, we want to force just building client on non-Intel
%else
%global ONLY_CLIENT 1
%endif
This comes from the upstream package. I don't know whether the
build of the server component has been attempted on the non-x86
platforms.
Jacco, have you tried it?
If not, Silvio, can you please raise a ticket on
https://bugs.redsleeve.org about this and I'll check if it
builds without any additional patches on RSEL7 over the next
few days.
Gordan
