Hello All!
2013/12/2 Dave Johansen <davejohansen(a)gmail.com>:
I recently submitted ODB 2.2 to the EPEL for EL 5/6 and version 2.3
has been
released (
http://codesynthesis.com/pipermail/odb-announcements/2013/000037.html ). The
wiki seems to indicate that updating software for feature releases is
discouraged (
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL_Updates_Policy#Stable_Releases ), so is
updating ODB to 2.3 in the EPEL not really possible? Assuming that's the
case, is there a recommended solution for maintaining access to newer
versions of ODB for EL users?
ODB is still a "young" package (in terms of existing in EL
repositories) so I would update it anyway. However in the future ypu'd
better to provide parallel-installable odb30, odb40 etc packages.
