Hi Seth,
Connie was out sick, and I had e-mail trouble, sorry for the delay.
To me this looks very nice. It is a little different than we expected, we
sortof just expect the rpm's to be listed, but I like the way you list the
groups, then rpm's.
It does get a little messy when you have groups with 'mandatory groups'
'default groups' and 'optional metagkgs', and then Mandatory Packages' and
Default packages'
While I, as a group maintainer like that, I think your average sys-admin is
just wondering what groups and packages are going to be installed if they
install that group.
Here's an example of a messy group
---------------------
Group: OSS
Required Groups:
Openafs Client
Dialup Networking Support
X Window System
Sound and Video
KDE
Fermi Kerberos
Editors
Administration Tools
Openssh Server
Printing Support
Graphics
Text-based Internet
Graphical Internet
Fermi Desktop Large Onsite
Default Metapkgs:
Development Tools
Office/Productivity
Optional Metapkgs:
Openssh Server
Kernel Development
GNOME Desktop Environment
Mandatory Packages:
zz_force_workgroups_cdrom
upsupdbootstrap
OSS-tag
Default Packages:
upsupdbootstrap-generic
zz_a2ps_stdout
zz_tex_tweaks
-------------------------
Is there any way we could just say 'groups' and 'packages', I think that would
make things more clear, but that is just my opinion.
I'll let Connie say what she thinks, she should be in today.
