[ELGIS] Development repository for packages in Fedora/EPEL

[Volker Fröhlich]

Dear list readers,

some of you might know Fedora's GIS project wiki page.

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/GIS

Amongst other things, this page contains a package wishlist. Packaging has 
started for many of those packages, but they did not go on review or are not 
officially part of Fedora/EPEL yet, for one reason or another.

If you're interested in helping or just want something to base your private 
package on in the meantime, you can clone the following Git repository:

git clone git://git.geofrogger.net/git/fedora-packaging

Note: It also contains non-GIS packages. Please read the README files. These 
files don't reflect the official spec files. It's just work in progress. I just set 
up the repository, so many things might still be missing, not building or 
contain German comments.

Official repositories for Fedora/EPEL packages can be accessed like:

http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/gitweb/?p=qgis.git

Just replace "qgis" with the name of the desired base package.

I hope somebody finds this useful.

Regards

Volker Fröhlich
