NEWS :
Thu 24 August 2006 - As of 1 Sept 2007 this free service will turn into donate-for-access only.
I have offered my rpm's for years now without so much as a donation to me. Bandwidth isn't free.
Sorry to have it come this way but I have to get the point across that GPL means the program is free not the mode of transportation.
Mirrors will no longer be updated after this date. You can donate by clicking the donation link below.
Access will be the same way you do it for club rpm's and access. Minimum donation will be $15 per year.

RPMS :
Current RPM's I have are 10.0 - 10.1 - 10.2
If you know of a program I should convert into a RPM just email me with the link for it and why it should be added here.

SRPMS :
Curious? Want to unpack my src rpm's and look at how they work with a spec file?
First, all my src rpm's can be found under the VERSION/SRPMS/ directory. Go look there !
Then do this after you have downloaded what you want to -->
$ rpm2cpio PACKAGE-NAME.src.rpm | cpio -di
Or you can download my Acme-unpack that will unpack virtually ANY compressed file.
This will unpack the srpm in the same directory your in so becarefull!
Might want to make a temp directory to play in...

Keys :
All Borgnet packages are signed with my key.
In order to have urpmi automatically check the packages during
installation, you have to configure your system first.
Procedure for Mandriva 10.2
You have to import the key into the rpm database. Setting up the urpmi
medium should do this automatically for you,
including restricting the use of my key to the Borgnet media. Anyway,
here is the manual procedure:
$ lynx -source http://rpm.borgnet.us/2006.0/RPMS/media_info/pubkey > pubkey.asc && rpm --import pubkey.asc && rm -f pubkey.asc
Borgnet Mirror :
New mirrors are always welcome. Just send a mail to sgrayban[at]mandriva[dot]org with the following information:
- mirror name
- mirror location
- mirror type
- mirror urls
- sponsor name
- sponsor url
- admin contact
You can be either a primary or a secondary mirror. Primary
mirrors can sync directly from the Borgnet internal archive, but they have
to provide a public rsync access. Secondary mirrors don't have such
restriction, but they have to sync from a primary mirror.
RSYNC from Borgnet is limited to authorized mirrors. No public access is allowed.
Primary mirrors to sync use the following command in a script:
- rsync -uarz rsync.borgnet.us:: <<< (Gives a list of available modules.)
- rsync -rltvHz --stats rsync.borgnet.us::rpms/ /DEST-PATH/ <<< (Sync's the entire tree)
Mailing list :
You can also subscribe to Borgnet RPM repository mailing list and be notified when changes are made.
