Fedora Core 5 2006/02/24 07:42  
How long will it be (roughly) till there is FC5 support in Virtualmin/Webmin?

It's due for release on the 20th March and I'll be looking to have it installed at that time as it's coinciding with a box rebuild.

Hey Paul,

I plan to add FC5 to the supported distributions within a couple of days of release of FC5. I need a little testing time, and I want to build against the "release" versions of Apache and other stuff. Fedora is, by far, the easiest distribution for me to support because yum is its default package management system (or, close enough, since no one that has the choice uses up2date over yum). I could do a full Fedora install in about five lines of shell script, plus an RPM in the yum repository, if it were the only OS I had to support. ;-)

That said, building and testing does take some time, and we're getting to the point where I don't roll anything out without quite a bit of internal testing. Too many users to be experimental, despite the EA version and warnings still being on everything.

Excellent.

Is there a demo version available yet? I'd like to test pro, either on my box or some web based demo site?

FYI FC5 has now shipped

Once you provide support for FC5 i'll be buying myself a license :)

I downloaded it today, am installing now, and the FC5 build system is already installing (I use mock for builds, and qemu for testing). Will be built, tested, and ready for use in a day or two.

That's great :)
I hope it will be available soon. I'm just waiting to achieve my new installation :)

Almost done. Not more complicated, just have lots on the plate. Probably tonight or tomorrow it will be finished.
