correct kernel modules for RHEL4 and RHEL5. But for a lot of
problems above a rewrite of VMwareTools is needed.

assumption because someone with a marketing background wants to hide the

If your business relies on CentOS, you'd better be sure Red Hat stays in
business and is a market leader. Because you benefit from that as much as
an

packages.
Good luck and please report back !

I just noticed that my email client (alpine) was still configured to use
th
merging simply because new
incompatibilities are easy to introduce and Fedora will never accept a
policy where they validate compatibility before making available.
Now, I always thought that RPMforge wouldn't have the resources to
start making the repositories compatible, but appare
PMforge, there must be something
that is missing from EPEL ?
I am happy to learn what you want to do though, because it is easy to
criticize, but it takes time to do some work.
(And I hope the solution is not another repository, because we have been
there :-))

e fact that you
for some reason need RPMforge is the proof).
If the last user wants to turn off the light, then I know I can start
doing something else ;-)
PS To be honest, we could use some more people that want to help, if
something is missing or not being maintained, offer to maintain it !

It is not. Everything that works, works. The things that do not work, can
be fixed. I don't want to remove things that can be fixed because
recreating a package from sc
want him to help me fix those things for free.
So I guess we are both very alike, we want each other to fix those things
for free :)

The difference is that you can only install one distribution, but you can
install tons of incompatible repositories.
And the believe that one repo will rule them all (which is what Fedora and
EPEL wants you to believe) is just
to the RPMforge subversion so you can maintain those
things from within RPMforge if you like.
Maybe this discussion can induce some change in how we work or who we
accept.
