I guess we could start a "pcp-contrib" RPM or something. Nathan's comments
about keeping layered PCP contributions separate is sound - we really need
to avoid unnecessary prereqs in the base rpm. So it would be better
if Michal's stuff were packaged in it's own RPM (say pcp-mysql and
pcp-montools or something). Michal, I have a "template build environment"
that you should be able to use to build your own RPMs .. (assuming I am able
to release it), you could plug your src into this and spit out RPMs.
In any case, it would be a good idea if all the (open source) PCP
rpms were available from a single site (perhaps a "contrib" subdir
of the download directory on oss.sgi.com), so that users can get them all
in one go rather than having to hunt around all over the world.

Hmm .. that may have been the ppc version, which is present at
ftp://oss.sgi.com/www/projects/pcp/download/
There is also an ia64 RPM available now if anyone wants it.

well I couldn't find it either, so I don't think we put it on oss.sgi.com.
