Hi All,
Despite Red Hat's assurance that EL6 will be supported
till 2020, I am finding a lot of stuff that Red Hat
is not willing to fix in EL6, but is going to or already has
fixed in EL7.
I had SL7 on one of my machines for a while and I currently
have it in a VM on my main office machine. I really like
it and think it is really well done.
Except that there is a problem that can not be worked around:
no Wine 32.
Despite how much I like EL7, this makes EL7 completely and
utterly useless to me. If I can not get my work done, I can
not get my work done. It is what it is. (My pleas to EPEL
and Wine have got me nowhere either.)
So, even thought I hate to, I think it is time to think of
parting ways with Red Hat.
Anyone know of a disto like EL so that I wold not lose all the
intellectual property I gains on EL Linux if I ultimately have
to leave EL? Susie? (Aren't the owned by M$ no-a-days? Yikes!)
Be nice if it supported KVM too.
I have though of Fedora, which I also support, but it is really
not a good choice for a server.
Any sign of a Wine 32 project for EL7? That would ultimately
solve the problem.
Sorry for rambling,
-T
