Hello -=20

=20

First of all, thanks for a great platform!=20

=20

I wanted to upgrade my FC3 CCRMA to FC5. installed FC and ccrma-core.

=20

Then, for installing the apps, the instructions are somewhat confusing
(or is it just me being confused?)

=20

1)       there is a note saying that the planetccrma-* app packages are
not yet available

2)       there are links to the packages

=20

1)       there are no instructions on how to configure or install apt
(as there used to be for the previous versions). My conclusion was....It
is all yum these days (which I found out was wrong pretty quickly..)

2)       the example commands for installing are still for apt

=20

My conclusion is that audioapps and adiovideoapps are still managed
under apt. Correct? (want to know before I try and mess up something...)


=20

Is the package manager bound to change in the future to be only yum?

=20

Second question: Which other package collections go together with
planetccrma? I would assume atrpms, since they mirror planetccrma. Are
there any "recommended" and "stay away from" lists?

=20

Third, general, very-much-newbie question is:=20

=20

a) How do apt and yum work together? Isn't there a way that they could
mess up with each other?=20

b) if I add an rpm outside of yum and apt, are they incorporated
"automagically" into the local yum

 and apt repo management, or are they forever out in the cold?=20

=20

Thanks for anyone with the patience to answer,

=20

PS I also found a typo on the main page
(http://ccrma.stanford.edu/planetccrma/software/) , saying that
planetccrma is supported for FC versions 1,2,4 and 5, even though 3 is
among the installation instructions.
