Re: [opensuse-factory] Re: Lime JeOS: The openSUSE based JeOS
Ok. I'll send the email to Adrian next week. Meanwhile I'll try to set up my own buildservice on a virtual machine and see how difficult would be to add the appliance things. By the way, JeOS is about 350MB. I think there is still some stuff that can be remove, but I'll try that on a later stage (like documentation and some Perl-Modules).
I do have a question for the factory guys. AppArmor is in the minimal system. Should be this way? If we create a software appliance and not configure properly AppArmor, would not that be a problem more than a benefit? Or is it a good idea to have AppArmor even though it is not configured (or configured with the default configuration)?
thanks,

Hi AJ,
thanks for the email. Actually I am basing the JeOS on the minimal pattern. I tried to set up a project on the buildservice that was linking all the minimal pattern rpms (and dependencies), so software appliances could be projects on the buildservice that where build on JeOs project (from a technical point of view. The UI may be a new web application). However, some rpms are missing (the kernel for example) and it looked like I could not set up my project as a build platform.
This is something to discuss with the Build Service guys - perhaps on their list.
That makes me consider installing my own build service and define JeOS as a build platform and then modify the web UI or make a new one that runs the kiwi and is more software appliance oriented. That will have a lot of sense, especially when multiple build services can be connected.
Meanwhile, I've started conversations with possible sponsors, so I am looking for a very good server with very good bandwith, and that is not costless ;) . However the conversations are still in a very early stage.
So, what do you think is the best approach? Especially for updating to the new versions of JeOS to the new openSUSE versions.
I suggest you talk with Adrian next week (he's currently travelling) and see what's possible, Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, Director Platform / openSUSE, aj@suse.de SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126 ______________________________________________ Enviado desde Correo Yahoo!

If you have some ideas on the packaging side, e.g. notice some dependencies on packages that you consider unneccessary or packages that come with far too much documentation, please bring it up.

If you do not configure it properly, it only gives a wrong sense of security - you could remove it as well.
