Drupal Versioning in EPEL
by Sven Lankes
Hi,
I have packaged a few drupal modules for use on the upcoming fedora
insight. I only noted that drupal 6 in EL is actually called drupal6
when Eric brought it up in the flexinode [1] review.
This is a little messy:
EL-5 and EL-6 now have two separate packages drupal (which is drupal 5)
and drupal6. They are installable in parallel.
Fedora has a Package called drupal which really is drupal 6.
Fedora has a bunch of drupal-modules called drupal-modulename with a
version of 6.x-1.2 (which is what upstream uses to show that this is for
the drupal 6 range).
Eric suggests in the review [1] that I call the package
drupal6-flexinode-1.2 instead of drupal-flexinode-6.x-1.2 - but that
name would only work for EPEL as the other drupal modules which are
already in Fedora are following the 6.x-1.2 naming scheme.
I'm not very experienced wrt. EPEL packaging so I may be missing best
practices here but having a completely separate drupal stack for EPEL
(with two reviews per package ...) feels very wrong to me.
Not sure how feasible it is wrt. the progress of fedora insight but I'd
think that the best way forward would be to leave EL-5 on Drupal 5,
update the drupal package in EL-6 to Drupal 6.

System Management Tools and versions
by Michael Stahnke
One issue with this is that when managing systems, often times you
manage multiple releases (e.g. RHEL 4/5/6). If cfengine3 is available
on 6, I either have to build cfengine3 on 4/5 or get cfengine2 working
on 6 in order to truly manage the environment. This is the same issue
we have with the puppet packages as well. To me, I want them the same
on all releases, but as per the EPEL policy, you'll probably have
increasingly antiquated versions that probably are not compatible with
each other. I wanted to bring this up in the EPEL meeting last week,
but I forgot.
What are the thoughts on system management tools where a centralized
master is required and is often used to manage multiple versions of
the operating system?
I am sure there are examples other than cfengine and puppet, also.

fwsnort-1.0.6-8.el5 (FEDORA-EPEL-2010-3517)
Translates Snort rules into equivalent iptables rules
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
perl-IPTables-Parse :
The IPTables::Parse package provides an interface to parse iptables rules on Linux systems through the direct execution of iptables commands, or from parsing a file that contains an iptables policy listing. You can get the current policy applied to a table/chain, look for a specific user-defined chain, check for a default DROP policy, or determing whether or not logging rules exist.
fwsnort :
fwsnort translates Snort rules into equivalent iptables rules and generates a Bourne shell script that implements the resulting iptables commands. In addition, fwsnort (optionally) uses the IPTables::Parse module to parse the iptables ruleset on the machine to determine which Snort rules are applicable to the specific iptables policy. fwsnort is able to translate approximately 60% of all rules from the Snort-2.3.3 IDS into equivalent iptables rules.
