Add new app to repo & db install question

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



I've got two questions that I'm curious about.  One of for the
maintainers of CentOS and the others is for the community at large.


1)  At what point does a third party app get rolled into the production
repository (not sure if I said that correctly)?  Example: At what point
is it OK for the OS maintainers to adopt a newer version or PHP, MySQL,
Apache, etc.?

2)  I have read mixed opinions with how to install a database server.
Some articles say install it via YUM for compatibility purposes; while
others say install it from a tar ball or source to ensure other packages
do not try to upgrade and break the database.  What are your thoughts?
I plan on running a web server farm for a CMS/DB that needs to have a
five 9 uptime.
