[SSI-users] OpenSSI inclusion: Ubuntu

[Ivan K. <kr...@fa...>]

All,

some time ago, I started a conspiracy to get OpenSSI included in Ubuntu.
Some of our earlier Debian packages did not correctly install on Ubuntu,
but from what I've been told, the OpenSSI 1.9 packages work fine.

I spoke to Mark Shuttleworth about this a few days ago, and he is
interested in getting the packages included in the Ubuntu repositories
(under universe) for the Ubuntu Breezy 5.10 release scheduled out in
October.

I will take some time to test the 1.9 packages on the development
version of Ubuntu, and will report any problems -- if any, we should
work on fixing them immediately and submitting the packages to the
Ubuntu team. I am assuming we'll want to submit two sets of packages -
openssi-* and openssi2-*, for 1.2 and 1.9 respectively.

Are there any users who've run into problems installing OpenSSI on
Ubuntu? Any users who successfully run Ubuntu clusters? Please do share.
