I suspect that Oracle prefer to certify their apps against a binary |
2 |
distribution as then it is easier to know that everyone is running the |
3 |
same package versions, etc. |
4 |
|
5 |
Perhaps there could be an ebuild created that specified the exact |
6 |
versions of everything that Oracle specified. |
7 |
|
8 |
Kernel version, GCC version, Glibc version, GCC flags - the whole |
9 |
shebang. |
10 |
|
11 |
That way, Oracle could be sure that emerging "oracle10base" would bring |
12 |
a Gentoo system up (or down) to the levels that the app was certified |
13 |
to. |

Yes, I'd like to second this request. It's such a pain to have that one |
35 |
oddball RedHat server when all the rest are Gentoo. |
