-TechBytesBot/#techbytes-www.neowin.net | Ubuntu becomes a rolling release with Rolling Rhino - NeowinMar 27 07:24
schestowitz                    <p>While many of Arch’s contemporaries have joined the fray, one notable open-source giant has yet to make the leap. Rolling Rhino looks to change that by converting Ubuntu into a rolling release.</p>Mar 27 07:24
schestowitz                    <p>How is this achieved? According to the documentation, it’s mainly accomplished by tracking ‘devel’ repositories, which are repositories that have existed for every release but are not often used in production. You must start with a modified Ubuntu image which can be found here. Then, the distribution must be ‘initialized’ by follow steps in the documentation. Lastly, you need to use their custom tool called ‘rhino-Mar 27 07:24
schestowitzupdate’ which extends the capabilities to apt that allow the distribution to update itself outside of the normal confines of a traditional Ubuntu release.</p></blockquote></li>Mar 27 07:24

schestowitzThe search situation is sadly very, vvvery sad because it takes VAST financial resources to crawl millions of sites, billions of pages, over and over again. What's more, any business model other than spying and ads (overlapping issues) barely exists.Mar 27 21:06
