Should we add rpmforge, SME pulls rpms from it automatically already as part of updates and the buildsys

do we suggest using the rpm (below) or with the db as per the other repos

https://rpmrepo.org/RPMforge/Using

Added rpmforge in db format, please check.

RPMForge page removed for now

Next time first ask before adding it. The way you added it it might have caused serious issues as RPMForge distributes pacakges that might be newer than on SME Server, therefore you need to exclude a lot of packages as otherwise undesired updates of SME Server packages could have lead to issues which the small development team can not resolve.
Besides that we already list the Dries and the Dag repositories, which together form RPMForge.
For now I have removed RPMForge as I see no need for it ATM. Please be a little more carefull next time and raise your questions before taking action certainly when risks like this are involved. Thank in advance. — Cactus (talk | contribs 17:24, 15 January 2010 (UTC)
