Hi All, I
would like some input from the community regarding the organization of
EPICS build for multiple OS targets (not cross-compiling), e.g. RHEL (5,
6, 7), Debian and other flavors available to coexist in a shared
directory structure.How is the community handling cases similar to rhel7-x86_64 versus rhel6-x86_64 given that "EPICS_HOST_ARCH" returns "linux-x86_64" for both? One possible solutions would be to use something like: <shared_path>/<os_version>/base/.../<EPICS_HOST_ARCH>/... - where os_version would be: rhel5, rhel6, deb7, deb8, etc. Another solution would be to apply a local patch to the EPICS building system to return a specific value for EPICS_HOST_ARCH including the <os_version>, e.g. rhel6-x86_64, resulting in something like this: <shared_path>/base/.../<NEW_EPICS_HOST_ARCH>/... Thanks, Hugo
