[Planetlab-devel] libproper on V4 nodes

[Jeremy Plichta]

Marc,

Actually, we have not been using the proper rpms... I was not aware
there were rpms for the proper libs before this. I believe that early on
in the stork project someone contacted Steve Muir and we were provided
with the actual libproper.so.0 file. Since then we have been including
that in our install rpm.

Now that I know there are rpms for proper it would probably make more
sense just to make the proper rpm a dependency of our stork rpm instead
of including the lib in ours.

I will let you know if we experience any problems with the new FC4
version of proper.

Thanks again,
  Jeremy
