I have not ported to RHEL3 yet.  Since EL3 is from RH9, the effort has 
already been done; just a matter of setting up the environments to do 
it.  

I haven't focused much on this lately.  I'm trying to get my build 
environment setup to be more automatic, publishing packages etc.  While 
I'm doing this I'm also moving to the following platforms:

el3 (centos 3.5), el4 (centos 4), fc3, fc4.
and only yum.

One problem with the el3 build of python2.4: it needs an up-to-date 
tcl/tk/tix setup and maybe other support packages.  If you don't mind 
this, stick around for a bit and I'll work on building this up.

Now available: http://www.python.org/pyvault/centos-3-i386/index.html

For RHEL3, you'll have to setup manually for now.  I am working on 
getting yum backported for automatic updates.

Subject: [PyVault-users] New Repository Release
Message-ID: <200507221549.43748.symbiont@berlios.de>

Hi:

I've noticed that there are random pockets of users across the internet, 
but, no one in particular is active on the user list.  I will be 
marketing the repo a little better to get more exposure.  In the 
meantime, I need to make an announcement to the few who are subscribed 
to this list about changes implemented.

The following changes have been made:

1. Dropped Redhat 7.3 and 9, Fedora Core 1 and Fedora Core 2, SuSE.
2. Support Centos/RHEL 3 and 4, Fedora Core 3 and Fedora Core 4.
3. Dropped apt metadata generation.
4. No old yum metadata generation; only xml metadata.
	* This means that only smart and yum are supported.
5. Temporarily not using stable/development/testing stability classes.
6. Disttags have aligned with Fedora Extras.
7. Massive modifications to the build and publishing infrastructure.

There's more work to be done going forward.  Most of it is behind the 
scenes stuff. Visible things you'll see:

1. Cleanup of repoview templates to conform to pydotorg standard.
2. Smart instructions.
3. Cleanup of rss generation so it looks nice in things like akregator.
4. Packages, packages, and packages.
