all variants including Server and Client. All upstream repositories have
been combined into one, to make it easier for end users to work with.
And the option to further enable external repositories at install time
is now available in the installer.

Further Arch support for PowerPC, IA64 and Sparc are planned and will be
released soon. These arch’s will follow the existing pattern of release
