More changes on yum.puppetlabs.com

[Michael Stahnke]

Greetings,

I'd like to remove the cruft (no longer maintained) areas of
yum.puppetlabs.com. I fear they only cause confusion and offer
less-than-desirable experience for our users.

I'd like to remove

/base
/prosvc
/porsvc.unsigned
/SRMS
/sources

I'd like to do this some time next week. The stuff mostly found in
base is available elsewhere and signed properly. The prosvc stuff has
been largely unmaintained. The /SRPMS folder is now broken out into
each distribution area, so this high-level directory isn't needed.
The /sources directory contains a very incomplete listing of source.
We have that available either via SRPMS or at downloads.puppetlabs.com

This will basically keep:

/el (stuff for RHEL, CentOS, Scientific, Oracle Linux etc)
/fedora

For specific feedback on this change, you can update
http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/8473 or you can reply to this
thread.

NOTE:
There's been some discussion about other package platforms,
Debian/Ubuntu, Solaris, etc. There are plans to begin working on
making those packages readily available (working with the community),
however it's time permitting still.

Mike

+1, not having proper RPMs was a major stumbling block for keeping up
with your release cycle.

Debian is currently at 2.7.5 in unstable and has backports of 2.7.1 for
stable.
