Repo issues...

So progressing with the work on the repository, I have fixed (or believe I have fixed) the issue with the repo name and release name being different.

I have changed the release name to be DXR instead of DXR-release to match the repo directory name which is DXR.

However, as for the broken repo when trying to run yumdownloader (example: yumdownloader --source viewsource) I am still running into issues.

I will be asking Prof. Tyler for some advice and assistance. I also think I need to re-organize all the stuff in the repo directory (there's stuff all over the place lol).

Jonathan Deni and I have also gotten together to work out some of these issues we're having however we are completely stumped with the permission problem for viewsource.

SBR700 - Release Plan

This semester in (part 2) of Software Build and Release our class goal is to get DXR fully packaged, tested and ready for F13.

My specific role in this project was the "Repository Master" (sounds cool, I know) and I will be continuing with this role. My plan as of right now is to fix a few issues with the repository that Prof. Tyler has pointed out such as fixing the source repo and matching the repo name to the release package name.

I will also be assisting Jonathan Deni with issues that he comes across with viewsource and apache configurations.

I will be keeping everyone posted every week with updates!
