<p>       Is ib-utils depends on opensm-libs? If so I would suggest to change opensm-libs as libsmutils. Otherwise ib-utils won't work without installing opensm package. Does this make sense?<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
Shirley <br>

<tt>Hi Vlad,<br>
<br>
This looks good, a few comments.  As you are splitting out RPM spec<br>
files for each package, I would like to see the RPM release numbers be<br>
consistently updated whenever changes are made to a package. <br>
Ideally, this would be coordinated with the release numbers from<br>
the distros, so that we could tell whether a version of an OFED RPM<br>
in a distro was the older, the same or more recent than an OFED RPM<br>
from openfabrics.org.  This would also allow us to update them with<br>
rpm -Uvh.  Extra credit would be given for adding dependency information to<br>
the packages. <br>
<br>
I also like the idea of clearly separating the build of the RPMs from <br>
their installation.<br>
I would like to see all target system modifications be made by RPM files,<br>
or postinstall scripts, rather than from the install.pl script, which may<br>
not always be run on a target.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Bob<br>
