[ATrpms-users] What's the best way to ask for additional packages to be added to the repository?

[Steve Hanselman]

Good call!!!

I'll search elsewhere and if I don't find them build, are there some
guidelines for the best way to build packages for general consumption?

(As I said, I usually just configure and make for my environment)

The best way is by submitting them. :)

Install medley-package-config to get a larger range of repos or use
rpm.pbone.net to query for packages on every spot on earth. I think
freetds can be found at Dag's.
