Re: FW: [hobbit] Future of Hobbit - Getting added to distro repos

["s_aiello (at) comcast.net" <s_aiello (at) comcast.net>]

I have been watching this thread for binaries for different linux Distros for 
awhile. About a few months back I started initial implementation of 
clientupdate. With clientupdate, all linux distibutions boil down to 'linux' 
OS. So if there are multiple linux distros being monitored, or same distro 
but different versions, wouldn't this lead to complication with 
clientupdate ? Because that same tar will be pushed out to 
everything 'linux'. The way I dealt with this issue, is that my hobbit tar 
was compiled statically. Ideally the binaries have all the dependencies 
compiled in. So it should work on any linux distro.

So multiple distro packages are nice, but is there a problem when updates need 
to be pushed ? Or did I just miss something obvious ?
