Thanks for the feedback guys. Of course I do Fedora and SuSE on my PC. But from Mo-Fr. I am not at home and use my companie's laptop where I can not install Linux and wouldn't really like to install additional software. And having two laptops around would be too much :) How can I package Fedora packages under these circumstances from Mo-Fr? Any ideas appreciated.
