Summary: Review Request: nbd - Network Block Device https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=330951 ------- Additional Comments From wtogami@xxxxxxxxxx 2007-10-13 18:42 EST ------- > The server and the client should certainly be in different > packages, especially since according to the README they > shouldn't be installed on the same computer. I disagree that it is necessary to split this package. It would be overly pedantic to do so. It is certainly not harmful to have both installed on the same system but to use only one or the other. On a more general level, we really want to avoid gratuitous package splits, as every additional package slows down every yum transaction. This is a tiny and simple package with no real benefit in splitting. > Reading the README, it looks like some special devices should > be created. Should it be left to the user, will the devices be > created on the fly, or should they be created in a post-script? Please leave this to the user for now. nbd can be used in many different ways. LTSP specifically creates devices on-the-fly for an arbitrary number of clients, so it is wrong for the nbd base package to make any assumptions. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
