Combining all of these into one script seems like a fine idea, but I think it would make sense to make it optional which component(s) it is configuring the database for. I also considered whether such a script belonged upstream or not. Right now it's doing some Fedora specific stuff though, like offering to install mysql-server for you if it's not already installed. It could eventually be made more generic, but that takes time and effort. :-) -- Russell Bryant _______________________________________________ cloud mailing list cloud@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/cloud
