Thanks for putting this topic on my radar. Uncommunicated packaging<br>
changes have indeed been a pain for non-RPM distributions on several<br>
occasions. We should try to inform other packagers about required<br>
changes in the packaging scripts or upgrade/installation process better.<br>

My guess is that we need to announce packaging changes very clearly.<br>
Maybe it makes sense to have a very low-traffic <a href="mailto:packaging@gluster.org">packaging@gluster.org</a><br>
mailinglist where all packagers from all distributions are subscribed?<br>
<br>
I've added all packagers that I could track on CC, and am interested in<br>
their preferences and ideas.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Niels<br>
