I'm curious what is the current status of rpmfusion. At the

July we got the CVS and FAS2 working, so I suppose the buildsystem is
what's still missing. I'm happy to test some things if this can help.
Okay, after working on RPM Fusion push scripts and some other things
around it I can give a quick status update before leaving the keyboard
for now. Initial, rough test repos for free and nonfree are up; you can
browse them at:
http://193.28.235.60/free/fedora/updates/testing/9/i386/
http://193.28.235.60/nonfree/fedora/updates/testing/9/i386/
The free repo contains only libmms; the nonfree only sdlmame
@dribble guys -- we afaics should soon be able to use this repo to
distribute dribble updates. But I'm the only one right now that has
access to queue builds :-/ So if you want something build from CVS just
import is to CVS and tag it -- then tell me the package name and the tag
(preferred) or release to build. Note: we are building for ppc64 -- some
packages will fail on that arch and need to be fixed or ExcludArch'ed
Next things on my todo list
- get the IP of the box (it's the same one that serves Livna; kindly
provided and maintained by Pix) into DNS as
download1.rpmfusion.org or
download2.rpmfusion.org
- create/import/publish a rpmfusion-release.rpm -- firewing1 iirc
created one already iirc
- talk to Xavier about making the plague-server box plague aware; this
is the first step to make plague available for everyone
- in parallel: build and publish as much dribble packages as possible;
after that slowly start building livna packages as well
- discuss what to do with kernel modules.
We never discussed if we want to do what livna does (kmods and akmods
-- e.g. the user can chose if he wants pre-compiled or dynamically
compiling modules) or what freshrpms does (dkms -- only dynamically,
which is something Asus Eee-PCs users afaik don't like to much).

P.S.: *Don't* announce this repos to widely yet please. There is still a
ton of work that needs to be done; and a lot of stuff that can break on
that way. I'm aslo sure there are some errors, so some things (path?)
still might need to be adjusted...
