Re: NSLS-II Debian Repository in 2018

[Anton Derbenev <aaderbenev@gmail.com>]

Hello everyone,

some recent updates on NSLS-II repository structure:

1) As planned, there will be 'Legacy' repository nicknamed 'epics' (packages for Debian 5,6,7,8 Base 3.14), and the 'Current' repository nicknamed 'epicsdeb' (packages for Debian 8 and further 9, now Base 3.15).

2) An important change is that the Lab is moving its public-facing naming to a three-part domain names. It means that by the plan the current repository, http://epics.nsls2.bnl.gov/debian/, is to be available as http://epics.bnl.gov/debian/. The new repository will be available as http://epicsdeb.bnl.gov/debian/.

We'll provide more updates as those changes commence.

Regards,

Anton.
