We'll see five platforms for 5.0-RELEASE: alpha, ia64, i386, pc98, and sparc64. i386 and alpha will have packages. pc98 can use the i386 packages. The situation for ia64 and sparc64 is a bit murky; there are no ports building clusters for these architectures yet, but I would like to see at least a Perl package for each of these. > at the moment the release layout is a bit inconsistent between architectures. > > e.g > > releases/i386/ISO-IMAGES/5.0-DP2/ > > -rw-r--r-- 1 1006 1006 582746112 Nov 17 00:23 5.0-DP2-disc1.iso > -rw-r--r-- 1 1006 1006 312606720 Nov 17 00:21 5.0-DP2-disc2.iso > > > releases/ia64/ISO-IMAGES/5.0-DP2/ > > -rw-rw-r-- 342589440 2002/11/21 05:48:50 disc2.iso > -rw-rw-r-- 290750464 2002/11/21 05:46:26 miniinst.iso Aw, cr*p. My fault. The filenames should have been analogous to i386. Sorry about that, folks. :-( (Well, the layout is consistent...it's just the names that weren't.) > it is probably too late to do anything with this release (as mirrors > will already start pulling it down, though so far ia64 hasn't > appeared very quickly), but would it be possible to standardize on > something like: > > ---.iso ? > > 5.0-DP2-i386-disc1.iso > > 5.0-DP2-ia64-disc1.iso > > 5.0-DP2-ia64-mini.iso > > and later (?) > > 5.0-R-i386-disc1.iso This seems like a good idea with the minor change that If It Was Up To Me, I'd name the latter image "5.0-RELEASE-i386-disc1.iso". Let me knock this around with the other REs. I agree that having the image name include the architecture would be a good thing. We could have our release building scripts automatically create the ISO images with more descriptive filenames, but I don't know if I want to diddle with those at this point (maybe later though).
