[blag-whereto] adding packages to kimsufi

[noldrin]

The question is, which is more valuable to keep, a pristine jebba repo, or to make sure my updates stay valid?  Having your repo updated will make a lot more sense once we create a mirror list for blag so that yum/apt will use different mirrors when users update.

If you are able to keep a pristine archive of anything, the important part to make a backup of is anything in the repo.blag and that source directory for that.  Everything else can really be basically recreated (in their updated form) using their originating repo.  

I hope tonight to start putting time into the BLAG project once again.  I'm trying to catch up on the mail.

I have purposely /not/ changed the repo since the last sync with
Jebba's in anticipation that there will be a source of stable and
recent packages.

If this time has come I am ready to sync with Noldrin's.

Noldrin, Shall I reactivate this crontab?

# m h  dom mon dow   command

0 0,6,12 * * *  rsync --timeout=600 --archive
rsync://rsync.blagblagblag.org/blag/90000 /home/jayeola/blag/
--verbose
