No problem it was the "CC:" is why. It deleted my dev list copy. Here's again to dev list for KB. If needed I'll do the BR.

Karanbir,
Can you look into closing out the bugs that can be closed etc?
Yes, I will try and get to that either today or early in the day tomorrow.
Thanks
Can also [1,2] be looked into to confirm package depends on abrt / report (hidden gotchas). Look at the example spec file at the changes that are required and the level of them that the Application Backend will have to support. Is there someone that can take on the App Server end?
Also needed to know if you are symlinking from "redhat-release" to "centos-release" or not. That depends on how other packages need to be patched, ie "lsb_release".
I am keen on looking at using a centos-release with a link over from redhat-release, but lets consider / look at the implications and fallouts before deciding on something for sure. There should not be any reason to patch redhat-lsb;
This here in the spec file needs to be done so it does not imply to the user that it is RHEL:
redhat-lsb.spec.orig 2010-01-15 01:57:55.000000000 -0500 +++ redhat-lsb.spec 2010-12-02 06:15:17.000000000 -0500 @@ -46,7 +46,7 @@ %define lsbrelver 4.0 %define srcrelease 1
-Summary: LSB base libraries support for Red Hat Enterprise Linux +Summary: LSB base libraries support for CentOS
whatever we do should not, ideally, have any impact on code and expectations from other apps ( specially since there might be implications to third party apps that we cant / dont want to have a feedback loop into )
What do you see as needing patched into redhat_lsb, that would fallout
Well doing it by using a sym link in /etc nothing needs changing. CHECKFIRST="/etc/redhat-release" as so that will catch the link sym link so nothing will be changed in it.
If you do the reverse of the above CHECKFIRST="/etc/centos-release" then it needs a fix me up. So I say go with the symlink
