You have two missing bits: 1. a nice create-autotooled-rpm-for-dummies environment 2. a deployment framework You have only to look at koji to realise the technical basis for 2. is already there, and IIRC there are products on the market that do the package as payload thing. 1. is harder and is in its infancy today. That's why package systems with broken dependency engines sell and rpm/deb don't. But if you don't get a package feed up people do manual deployments, slowly rot the cluster and make OS upgrades impossible. static is just a way to partially hide the rot. -- Nicolas Mailhot
