Note that not only am I thinking of 'a' repository hosting solution, I was thinking it may be worthwhile to have the best available per platform.
For example, if adding the repo was 'yum copr enable xcat/core' or 'add-apt-repository ppa:xcat/core', I think that's actually better than current situation for online situation. I don't know about ease of enabling offline deployment and the 'xCAT-genesis-base' package sticks out as something that doesn't get built in a particularly orthodox way that could be an issue for those environments….

The OpenSUSE build service seems to support most of the main stream Linux distributions: CentOS, Debian/Ubuntu, Fedora, RHEL, SLES; I did some quick investigation, the ppc64/ppc64le support of these build services might be a problem. We need more investigation before we could decide. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Li,Guang Cheng (李光成) IBM China System Technology Laboratory Tel: 86-10-82453499 Tie-Line: 9053499 Email: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Address: Building 28, ZhongGuanCun Software Park, No.8, Dong Bei Wang West Road, Haidian District Beijing 100193, PRC 北京市海淀区东北旺西路8号中关村软件园28号楼 邮编: 100193 [Inactive hide details for Jarrod Johnson ---2015/06/13 01:58:19---I think overall we have an idea of what a post-sourceforge li]Jarrod Johnson ---2015/06/13 01:58:19---I think overall we have an idea of what a post-sourceforge life will look like already, except for t From: Jarrod Johnson <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> To: "xCAT Users Mailing list ([email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>)" <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Date: 2015/06/13 01:58 Subject: [xcat-user] Move package repositories? ________________________________ I think overall we have an idea of what a post-sourceforge life will look like already, except for the online package repository. Perhaps we should consider moving our package repositories to ppa/copr/opensuse build service? We'd still download an archive for offline package repositories, but the online update strategy would move to one or more of those services. ppa and copr have integration with Ubuntu and dnf for the respective platforms, so adding the repository might be easier and more consistent with other projects.
