No, I am a different one. I am familiar with whom you speak of, as we
have been on the same lists for some time. And it seems to frequently
confuse people. ;)

Some Python Packaging Questions
by Jeff Pitman
Hi:
I was wondering what your opinions on a going-forward solution to
Requires in Python packages. Especially with respect to the newer
"Provides: python-abi = %{pybasever}".
This previous thread is relevant:
http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-list/2004-May/msg00698.html
Some packages are using this as a Requires:, but not all. Fedora.us
implements a slightly different scheme in the spec template. If you
were coming from a "forget what was done in past Python packaging"
viewpoint, would you move everything over to "python-abi"? If not,
why?
Oh, and what's the difference between %{pybasever} and %{pyver}? Is it
like this:
%{pyver} = 2.3.4
%{pybasever} = 2.3
Lastly, in the fedora.us spec template, I still don't see how
differentiation on the directories produces anything useful:
# For noarch packages:
Requires: %{python_sitelib}
# For arch-dependent packages:
Requires: %{python_sitearch}
On my systems, this will always expand to the same versioned library
directory. Does this have to do with 64-bit somehow?
Thanks for your input!
take care,

Newer MySQL?
by Young, Michael
Hello all,
Could someone please enlighten me? Why isn't a newer version of MySQL,
like 4.x, shipping with FC? Is it because Postgre is the DB of choice,
or is it a license thing?
Thanks in advance.

I'd be excited if I could just see Sandia Peak - or better yet eat some
green chili.
Not much of that here in San Diego...

Can't say it would be much worse than the east side, considering the
lack of snow this year. May be a little steeper though. :)

Thanks for the reply Steve. I figured it might be something like that.
Sure would like to see the version get bumped though. I prefer using
out-of-the-box apps on my machines.

So true, but the left turn sure beats the right turn in my opinion.
