Default behaviour now is to write to wherever the last message came from, or to the bare JID (usually becomes a broadcast) if there wasn't any recent msg. - Added a switchboard_keepalives setting which should solve some issues with talking to offline MSN contacts.

As you may have noticed, the RHEL 6 Beta released today. For more details about RHEL 6, look here: http://press.redhat.com/2010/04/21/red-hat-enterprise-linux-6-beta-availabl… But, I'm here to let you know some of the specific changes of relevance for EPEL.

which were present in RHEL 5, but are absent in RHEL 6. Most of these packages are accounted for because of the dropping of gtk+ support, updating of configuration tools, standardization on hunspell, move from scim to ibus, or the move to KDE4. Some are just obsolete, and others were removed for space concerns.

pygsl package maintainer
by Doug Schouten 26 Apr '10

26 Apr '10

Hi all, I am relatively ignorant when it comes to building and maintaining RPM's, so I am wondering if, as described here (https://fedoraproject.org/wieki/EPEL_Package_Wish_List) there is anyone willing to maintain an EPEL version of the pygsl package already in Fedora. dependencies, afaik are: scipy, numpy, gsl, gsl-devel, python-devel (all are available in the RHEL package repositories) Link to Fedora package details: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/acls/name/pygsl?_csrf_token=7cab1c958… cheers!

Request of MONO-2.4 in EPEL5
by Kirby Zhou 24 Apr '10

24 Apr '10

Hi! There are people around that would like to see some of your Fedora packages in Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (EPEL) [1] -- I for example would like to see mono-2.4 in EPEL5 and mainly send you this mail on behalf of the EPEL team as you didn't yet let the team know via the Contributor Status [2] page if you are planning to build some or all of your Fedora packages for EPEL. Are you interested in maintaining your packages in EPEL? EPEL is similar to Fedora Extras -- just that EPEL is a add-on repo for RHEL and compatible spinoffs such as CentOS. EPEL uses the same CVS and the same build servers as Fedora and a lot of Fedora maintainers are EPEL maintainers as well; the main difference is just that packages in EPEL are updated more carefully and supported for a longer timeframe. See [3] and [4] for details. In short: EPEL tries to ship a package once and update it to later versions only when there is a strong need to. For branching your packages for EPEL follow the standard Fedora procedure[5] -- instead of FC-6 or F-7 targets just use EL-4 or EL-5 as branch names. If you maintain several packages (> 2) you can also use a scripted branching method (all packages from a contributor) by using the scripted branch process[6] . If you are not interested in EPEL please let the EPEL contributors know and update the information on [2] to avoid further mails like this -- that just takes a minute or two and would be a great help for the EPEL team. Please note that EPEL maintainers that might want to see your package in EPEL will likely start to maintain the package in EPEL sooner or later and thus become co-maintainers [7] of your packages for EPEL. I have done a little work by patching your mono-2.4 spec to make it can be build under the RHEL5 environment. The attachment is the nosrc.rpm. The EPEL team appreciate your help with EPEL.

libtalloc conflict
by Ray Van Dolson 24 Apr '10

24 Apr '10

I see there is a libtalloc 2.02 in EPEL5 now. This conflicts with libtalloc in RHEL5 which is build as a subpackage from samba3x. Maybe this should be renamed to libtalloc2? Ray

Transmission
by Michael Stahnke 23 Apr '10

23 Apr '10

After battling a while trying to get either a newer version of transmission into EPEL or back-porting security fixes for it, I have decided I don't have the skills nor desire to continue working on it, specifically because I don't use transmission. If somebody else is interested in getting the fixes taken care of with it, please do so. Otherwise it needs to be dropped from EPEL. stahnma

Considering that gcc 4.5 was released a few days ago, not surprising. :) I'll take cadaver from rhel5 if he Fedora owner isn't interested, I use it a lot in rhel.
