DIRECTORIES: "unstable" gets a high volume of freshly built updates "testing" is a symlink to the current testing release "stable" is currently a symlink to "legacy" "dublin" (the named release) is periodically synchronized from "unstable" "current" is a compatibility symlink, pointing at "testing" "legacy" is a snapshot of the stable catalog from 2008 and is not getting updates "allpkgs" contains all packages that can be found in the archive "releases" contains symlinks to previously released catalogs For more information on the CSW effort, please visit http://www.opencsw.org/ There you will find details on volunteering to maintain packages, or on signing up to be an official mirror site. Feel free to join project's IRC channel: #opencsw on Freenode. GPL note: Package build descriptions with potential patches are available from the OpenCSW subversion repository at: http://gar.opencsw.org In case a given build recipe is not available, you can get a list of any source changes that were needed to compile a particular package, by contacting the maintainer of the specific package in question. You can find mention of rsync capable sites at: http://www.opencsw.org/mirrors The primary rsync site is: rsync://mirror.opencsw.org/opencsw Please note that when rsyncing, you should use the -H flag, to preserve hard links, if you are getting more than one particular subdirectory of this tree.
