[ofa-general] updated Ubuntu package archive, notes on Debian and Fedora

[Roland Dreier]

I've recently updated my Ubuntu PPA ("personal package archive") to
include both libmlx4 and librdmacm and have builds for both gutsy and
hardy.  To use the packages, just add the following to your
/etc/apt/sources.list for hardy:

    deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/roland.dreier/ubuntu hardy main
    deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/roland.dreier/ubuntu hardy main

or the following for gutsy:

    deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/roland.dreier/ubuntu gutsy main
    deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/roland.dreier/ubuntu gutsy main


as far as other distributions go...

libmlx4 packages have already made it into the Debian archive,
including the testing/lenny distribution.  I have started the process
to get librdmacm packages into Debian (the ITP bug is
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=462348), so packages
should appear in the not-too-distant future.

I will create Fedora packages for librdmacm soon; my libmlx4
packages for Fedora are still waiting for review
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=409511).
