Hi,

A quick note to present current developpement status.

OSCAR unstable is now being ported to centos-7 beta and so far, most things build.

- SystemInstaller has the same issue as on fedora ( It fails to build. I'm working on that), though, rhel6 packages can be used in the meantime, so it's not a showstopper.

- S ince fc-18, rpm packaging is becomming extremely pedantic. Many changlog day name wer invalid regarding the date and had been corrected keeping the original date (only the day name is corrected).

- Dynamic macros read from command line (--with) fails to expand since fc-18 (thus rhel-7 since it's based mainly on fc-19). The trick used to do that is not allowed anymore and a few packages need to be fixed (ganglia, torque, jobmonarch, openmpi). This will be done in the upcomming week.

- Fc-17 is not maintained anymore as the distro itself is not maintained and thus this makes no sens. Also, I don't have this build host anymore. if you're using fc-17 and needs updated oscar, please concider upgrading.

Regards,

Olivier.
