[CentOS-docs] time to refactor AdditionalResources/Repositories ?
I see this commit: ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Thu, 29 Oct 2009 15:42:14 From: noreply at centos.org To: noreply at centos.org Subject: centos wiki] Update of AdditionalResources/Repositories by PhilSchaffner The following page has been changed by PhilSchaffner: http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories?action=diff&rev2=96&rev1=95 The comment on the change is: Add JPackage ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ $ sudo rpm -Uvh mharris-el-repo-release-5-3.4.noarch.rpm }}} which contains files to substantially the same effect, and a bit more description of his archive. + + * '''JPackage Repository''' - (See http://www.jpackage.org/index.php ) ... snipped ... + ---- * '''Jason Litka - Utter Ramblings Repository''' - (See http://www.jasonlitka.com/yum-repository/) Updated web stack and other applications for EL4 and EL5 that will replace core packages. Includes apr, apr-util, freetds, httpd, libmcrypt, mhash, mod evasive, mod perl, mod python, mod security, mysql, mysqlclient10, mysqlclient14, pcre, perl-BSD-Resource, php, php-apc, php-eaccelerator, php-memcache, php-pear, php-xcache, subversion, tidy. Suggest caution if using this repo due to replacement of core packages. (back to herrold:) ... and had a couple of reactions -- the snipped part of it is a direct scrape and paste from the remote site, rather than locally produced editorial content. It is 'attributed' by being inside quotes, but really, I think a re-write is more proper, as the extract uses the first person singular and when first reading it I was confused. The other part about this page has been nagging at me, and that is I think we need a refactor here, as the centos side archive discussion up top gets lost in the clutter later on. Also, at this point I would elide the old bad example at the very bottom. Thoughts? -- Russ herrold
