I have been watching this thread for binaries for different linux Distros for awhile. About a few months back I started initial implementation of clientupdate. With clientupdate, all linux distibutions boil down to 'linux' OS. So if there are multiple linux distros being monitored, or same distro but different versions, wouldn't this lead to complication with clientupdate ? Because that same tar will be pushed out to everything 'linux'. The way I dealt with this issue, is that my hobbit tar was compiled statically. Ideally the binaries have all the dependencies compiled in. So it should work on any linux distro.
So multiple distro packages are nice, but is there a problem when updates need to be pushed ? Or did I just miss something obvious ?
