This is my first mail, and I want to know your feeback on this.
I want to have something for Linux user which do not have Internet connection at home or neighbor,
Instead of internet repo , You can do something different.
Instead of small small rpm, we separate them into some big chunk of bundle with added configuration, which can be interdependently install on a system without getting any dependency error.
For this we can start form LSB (linux standard base) and make bundle of rpm which are small small (`~~100 MB ) repository for single big software like (Xdisplay , open office , FireFox etc) with all added dependency's on it. So this will be much like distributing software specific small repo bundle which can be directly installed without worrying about any dependency's and somewhat similar to installing exe files. (Just click and set the path of installation)
However this approach will generate a lot of redundancy in term of space, But who cares, a 2GB software will take 10 GB or 20 GB but it will become a distributable unit.
This sort of packaging is possible so that /media/software drive will become transferable/shareable unit to share software,
