RPMs Built by Hao Li
These RPMs are built on a HP Vectra PII 450 machine running Redhat
Linux 8.0, with all suggested patches applied and a lot of customizations
made myself.
The reason I build them is either they can't be found on
contrib.redhat.com
or they can be found there but don't work or I don't like them.
Normally I won't bother uploading these RPMs to
contrib.redhat.com
because:
- Uploaded files there are scratched frequently;
- My spec files are intended to work only for i386 machines using glibc2,
therefore anything irrelevant is removed;
- My spec files are very concise and contain no comments or %changelog
section unless completely necessary, because I believe spec files should
be simple and self-explanatory;
- No NLS (locale) support;
- All executables are fully dynamically linked and stripped to reduce
size as much as possible. This may require shared libraries they depend
on to be installed first. However RPMs for all required shared libraries
are provided by either official Red Hat,
contrib.redhat.com,
or my own repository.
Feel free to grab anything you like. No warranty of any kind, either
expressed or implied. (Don't be scared though since I'm using them myself!)
However if anything does break for you do please drop me an email and
chances are that I can give you a solution in less than 24 hours :-)
