What we have been discussing really is Fedora Extras rebuilt for RHEL/CentOS/etc. We aren't making additional guarantees to the consumer of the packages about the suitability of the packages for running on their servers (except that we will be supporting the packages for the increased lifetime of the CentOS/RHEL distro.)
So is there any preliminary information about which RHEL version is decided fo rebuilding all FE packages for RHEL? I mean there are currently RHEL 3,4,5 with various updates that mean totally if i am correct 13 version in all present of RHEL. And how can i solve then dependencies problem if i decide to rebuilt my FE package for RHEL3? RHEL is known as stable product because it always contains old but stable packages from upstream releases. So how can we solve dependencies problems like if some packages need latest or newer version of dbus or hal for any FE packages?
