[sr-dev] Yum repos for Fedora

[Peter Dunkley]

Hi,

I've been playing around with setting up my own yum repo for Kamailio on
CentOS (and other Enterprise Linux distributions) and Fedora.

I currently have packages for 3.3.0-pre3 (as of git master from yesterday)
for CentOS 6 i386, x86_64 and Fedora 17 arm, i386, x86_64.

I plan to update these when Kamailio 3.3.0 is released.

The repo is currently hosted on Dropbox (go to
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9300853/yum/index.html for instructions on how to
use the repo).

I hope people find this useful and I'd appreciate any feedback/comments if
there are problems with it.

Regards,

Peter

PS. If anyone knows of a better (free) place to host the repo than Dropbox
please let me know.
