This conversation has gone past 2 full loops now. The only issue, as far
as I can tell, not cleared up is that can packages in the stock EL4 and
EL5 srpm tree be used against spacewalk 0.6 and 0.7 ?

They might be 'outdated' in that perhaps all features may not be
present, but is there an issue of these packages not being usable at all
due to an api incompatibility ?

Will look at that.

And this as well.

thanks for acting as issue catcher, its good to know that stuff I farkup
is going to be caught along the line :)

btw, the major point of getting these packages into a repo was to work
on the code that allows us to produce a package-db api. After a lot of
feature creep and de-creep there is something that should mostly work.
I'll post more details on that in the next few days.

Also, by this weekend there should be yum-security working capability in
this ft-testing repo. I'll post an email here when thats in place.

What do you mean by " i've built a centos for my powerpc laptop" ?
The complete distro ? a ppc package ?
If that's the complete disto, are your patches available somewhere ? (as
some packages including glibc.ppc and kernel doesn't build for ppc by
default)
I'd be curious to know about all that ! :D
PS : we have a centos-ppc meeting this Friday, in a pre-Fosdem meeting,
to discuss about the current ppc/ppc64, and the infrastructure around it.

Same here! :)

Well, I was in IRC mid December and we (z00dax, amongst others) were
discussing a PowerPC port of CentOS (especially as upstream will provide
a PowerPC port of RHEL6). I do have some maschines here (I also could
and would like to enable shell access to), the biggest one being a dual
Power4+ (1.45GHz) 275. Also, I could provide ISP services like web
space, maybe CVS/SVN stuff, mailing lists etc for free.

Well, are your modified CentOS sources available somewhere ? We'd be
happy to look at it.
Have you produced a ppc or ppc64 build ?

Not now, but maybe in upcoming releases of Spacewalk.

Spacewalk is meant to be used with the Spacewalk client tools, not the RHE ones.
