Description Alexander Todorov 2012-01-18 12:07:05 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #782765 +++

Description of problem:

per e-mail thread with Dennis and Bill:

> Also, would it be possible to list the debuginfo and optional repos in

--------------------------------------------------------------------

In addition to debuginfo and optional can we add Server, VT, Cluster, ClusterStorage as well in the same manner RHEL6 lists add-ons.

Comment 3 Daniel Mach 2012-01-18 16:36:43 UTC
The treeinfo files live in the os/ directory, correct?
It should match DVD content which is a problem: debuginfo and optional live outside DVDs.

On the other hand, adding:
repository = Server
repository = VT
repository = Cluster
repository = ClusterStorage
makes sense to me.

Comment 4 Dennis Gregorovic 2012-01-18 17:01:45 UTC
I think it's ok to include optional and debuginfo repos in .treeinfo as long as they are clearly differentiated.  Perhaps something like:

tree-repository = ../debug
tree-repository = ../optional/x86_64/os
tree-repository = ../optional/x86_64/debug

Comment 6 RHEL Program Management 2012-01-22 05:12:06 UTC
Since RHEL 5.8 External Beta has begun, and this bug remains
unresolved, it has been rejected as it is not proposed as
exception or blocker.

Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if appropriate and relevant, in the
next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Comment 9 Libor Miksik 2012-10-25 12:31:08 UTC
Thank you for submitting this issue for consideration. Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 has reached the end of Production 1 Phase of its Life Cycle.  Red Hat does not plan to incorporate the suggested capability in a future Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 minor release. If you would like Red  Hat to re-consider this feature request and the requested functionality is not currently in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, please re-open the request via appropriate support channels and provide additional supporting details about the importance of this issue.

Comment 10 RHEL Program Management 2012-10-30 06:09:30 UTC
This request was not resolved in time for the current release.
Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if still desired, for consideration in
the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Comment 11 Libor Miksik 2012-10-30 14:33:35 UTC
please disregard the previous comment.
