Places to find SRPMS
« on: June 21, 2009, 05:14:19 PM »
When considering updating or building a package the first thing I do is check to make sure we don't already have an existing srpm that can be updated: (no need to re-create the bicycle again)

Our Source packages:
http://ftp.heanet.ie/pub/pclinuxos/apt/pclinuxos/2010/

Sometimes you can rebuild a Mandriva sprm with a little tweaking for the menu entries:
(Remove epochs if found)

http://carroll.cac.psu.edu/pub/linux/distributions/mandrivalinux/devel/cooker/SRPMS/non-free/release/
http://carroll.cac.psu.edu/pub/linux/distributions/mandrivalinux/devel/cooker/SRPMS/contrib/release/

Suse Packman packages can be rebuilt with some minor/major spec file editing:
(double check and fix the rpm group please)

Rpmpbone net is another good source for srpms however most of the Fedora sprms won't uncompress on PCLinuxOS:

In relation to the new release, will the srpm's be released at the same time, or is it just me that can't find the 2010 srpm repo?

Tried http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/texstar/pclinuxos/apt/pclinuxos/2010/SRPMS.main/

cheers,
