#15: FEL with source + build packages -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Reporter: shakthimaan | Owner: chitlesh Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Fedora 11 'Leonidas' Component: FEL | Version: devel Keywords: Source | -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- I would like FEL to include source packages with documentation for various FEL tools that it ships with for the following reasons: 1. It should be a distro that one can install, use, and develop, without the need for an Internet connection. For upgrades, developers can obtain patches and re-build. 2. There are many people who are on dial-up in remote places in India, and the speeds are slow. It takes a really long time to download the source packages or refer documentation. It is only useful for chatting. And most of them on dial-up are on winmodems, and don't have driver support with Fedora. 3. It will be helpful to deploy this standalone solution in a lab. If the above can be done, it will be an off-the-shelf distro that one can simply install and use for learning, development and testing. I think FEL uses only 1.3 GB, so disk space shouldn't be an issue. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-electronic-lab/ticket/15> Fedora Electronic Lab <https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-electronic-lab> Design, Simulate and Program electronics. _______________________________________________ Fedora-electronic-lab-list mailing list Fedora-electronic-lab-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-electronic-lab-list
