Summary: Review Request: <libtune> - <standard API to access the kernel tunables> https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=210007 ------- Additional Comments From Nadia.Derbey@xxxxxxxx 2006-11-23 11:53 EST ------- (In reply to comment #16) > I think I was not specific enough.

What I meant here was not portability for the spec file, but for a binary linked with the libtune. > > I am not sure what you mean by "somebody downloading the kernel database". When > the RPM is installed, does it not include all the neccesary data? We have 1 rpm for the kernel data part and 1 rpm for the more distro-specific part. Ok I'll change everything and update the bug when I'm ready. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
