Sunay:
Nice to see you in action again.
On the Belenix team, we're likely to move ahead with with RPM5 since
we've decided to not go ahead with IPS, and since Debian-legal are not
happy with Nexenta modifying dpkg and using it (which puts apt-get out
of reach by extension).
A nice to have for us
se Sun-isms, rpmbuild is able to
use the existing SFE specfiles and generate usable rpms.
We envision that Belenix could be part of the openindiana eco-system
for desktop spec files, use illumos for the ON bits, and borrow stuff
from CentOS and Fedora as and where needed.

You seem to be facing many problems with your current OI install,
which no one else has faced so far.
Is a reinstall an option for you?
Alternatively, one of the Belenix team members has written a Network
Installer for OI which you may want to try. This is described at
moinakg.wordpress.c
Both gcc-3.3 as well as gcc-4.x are available. I use these on OI
(actually illumos) for the working on the next Belenix releases. Apart
from a specific linking problem for one of the shared libraries, GCC
works fine on OI.

Yes, we're still working on Belenix. Our day jobs are very exciting

Hi everyone:
I saw the recent IRC logs of the OI-Dev meeting, and noted with
interest about collaboration between oi and illumos - especially
around having a common package pool, whereby oi would package the
compiled artifacts into IPS packages, while Nexenta would package into
dpkg.
This is inte

Thanks for the inputs, everyone. The reason I'd wanted to opt for an
openindiana based hosting is because it'd be ideal for an illumos
based distro's website to be hosted on an illumos based distro.
We've got some hosting space at v12.su from russaine39.

Should not be, since using stubs for dependencies when compiling and

We certainly need to adopt similar approaches in case we need to move
