Feature changed by: Michael Löffler (michl19) Feature #305851, revision 8 Title: Include kiwi-ltsp in Factory - openSUSE-11.2: Unconfirmed + openSUSE-11.2: Evaluation Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Jigish Gohil (cyberorg) Description: I've been maintaining KIWI-LTSP: LTSP5 implementation on openSUSE using KIWI in server:ltsp Build Service repository, now it is at the stable and production ready state. This is request to include the packages(not all of them) in openSUSE Factory, and possibly 11.3 later. Relations: - Include kiwi-ltsp in Factory (novell/bugzilla/id: 474360) https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=474360 Discussion: #1: Jigish Gohil (cyberorg) (2009-02-10 08:42:08) Should this have gone on https://features.opensuse.org/ ? #2: andrea florio (anubisg1) (2009-02-10 09:16:58) +1 for me... kiwi-ltsp is great and works fine! #3: Shrenik Bhura (sbhura) (2009-02-11 05:20:31) The inclusion will largely serve as an impetus for further development of this great project. With increased exposure, the motivation to deliver a quality project shall also increase. #4: Ken Yap (ken_yap) (2009-02-11 06:31:44) Yes, please include it in OpenSUSE, it will make OpenSUSE more attractive to people who want to build thin client clusters. #5: Stephan Kulow (coolo) (2009-02-11 06:53:23) why not Factory:Contrib? And I agree with #1 Having it in Factory means currently that someone from novell needs to review them and that's why we created contrib where everyone capable can maintain packages that go with a specific openSUSE release. And for having it on the DVD it's a bit too special use case, so it would be online repo only anyway. + #11: Michael Löffler (michl19) (2009-03-25 16:18:11) (reply to #5) + I agree with coolo - contrib. Any yes we should make server:ltsp repo + more prominent. Support for ltsp parts in initrd needs to be verified #6: Jigish Gohil (cyberorg) (2009-02-11 07:00:00) Not on the DVD, but Factory and OSS online repo. Instead of Contrib isn't current location - server:ltsp more appropriate? Idea is to include it officially in the distribution. I am sure we can make a same kind of arrangement we have in place for compiz to maintain this as well. #8: Patrick Barber (pdjbarber) (2009-02-14 20:10:16) This is a useful package for education, busniesses and homes alike, i use it to provide a consistant environment for my kids no matter where the log on...and its continued develpoment would benfit everyone #9: Lars Vogdt (lrupp) (2009-02-19 12:58:53) Looks like we need at least the following packages in openSUSE: * kiwi-ltsp, * kiwi-desc-ltsp, * ltspfs, * ltsp-server Please give me some days to review them. #10: andrea florio (anubisg1) (2009-02-23 00:59:45) probably also kiwi-pxebootprebuilt isn't it? -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/305851
