I will configure that 16.04 vm this week and integrate it into the network as a "first class" workstation. It should be ready as a testbed (including snapshot capability) then for whenever it is actually needed= =2E While I am at it I will see that basic IPv6 tests (with and without libtirpc) are done in any case. >=20 > That also means that in time there could be a 14.04 build too, not su= re > about that though. We will move our workstations to 16.04.1 after it is released (provided= =20 it has no show stoppers), so 14.04 is not important at all. Do not both= er=20 with it. >=20 > I can't spend more time on this for a little while so I'll need some > time to work out how to do the ppa thing, if in fact I can. I am not sure about it. If it is easier for you to provide patches I ca= n also recompile. Or I could provide a possibility to upload packages, the University has its own file hosting service (think dropbox). If I am=20 installing binary or source packages I have to trust their origin anywa= y. Whatever is easiest for you. In any case take your time ! We await delivery of a new mid-size HPC cluster in May (completely unrelated to autofs). As soon as it is=20 here I will be absorbed in configuration and migration for some time. >=20 > I guess the other thing to worry about is if doing this will annoy th= e > official downstream maintainer ... maybe we should attempt to make > contact some time. >=20 Best Regards Christof --=20 Dr. rer. nat.
