hi guys,
One bit of feedback at LinuxCon this year from people was that we should ship epel with a lower barrier to entry. And I have mixed feelings about that. But I wanted to know what everyone else thinks about :
- Shipping epel-release in CentOS-Extras, so its installable, usable
out of the box.
This one looks best from POV of amount of work needed and also because it won't be enabled by default.
I'd also suggest adding ELRepo...
+1 for both repos to have their *-release included in centos-extras. and we should also evaluate IUS.
Perhaps a big note in the release notes saying it's there but not endorsed etc etc?
Absolutely ! Something along "These packages are here for your convenience only; support for using these repos and for the packages taken from these repos should be asked for in their respective avenues".
