[Nautilus-list] eazel-installer update: new server & Red Hat 7.0 support



Hey!

    If you use (or would like to use) eazel-installer for new builds,
there's three things you should know about.

    1. Red Hat 7.0 users --- you can now get up-to-the-hour builds of
Nautilus via eazel-installer!

    It's not thoroughly tested, but Red Hat 7 users can now get new
builds with a single command line.
<http://nautilus.eazel.com/testing/download.html> has been updated with
instructions. The installer still has bugs being flushed out daily by
Robin & Eskil. It changes often, so you are best off using the most
recent build. Please generously file bugs. ;)

    2. Adam, Roy & Robin have set up an hourly builds server ---
hourly.eazel.com.

    This replaces triggerfish.eazel.com, which a shared development box
underneath Ken's desk, and which was often down for maintenance. For
your convenience, hourly.eazel.com should be available to serve you 24
hours a day.

    3. If you have old hourly packages, you'll need to manually erase
them for the installer to work.

    The naming scheme for hourly RPM packages recently changed so that
the installer will work on RPM 4. If you have hourly packages older than
last weekend, you'll have to uninstall them before using the installer,
or the installer will fail to install, citing package conflicts. For
more information, see bug #5702.

    I think you can just do this by doing this command as root, before
launching the Nautilus installer:

    rpm -e `rpm -qa | grep Eazel` --nodeps


    If there's anything I can do to help folks, please yell or drop by
#nautilus in the afternoon or evening.

    Yours,

    Eli
