Hi there,
If I compare the Rocket Ported Tools and the new z/OS Miniconda I see that the following tools are in Rocket Ported Tools but not in z/OS Miniconda

autoconf automake bison cvs expect
findutils groff m4 mc nedit
openssl31-bit pkg-config tcl webalizer

(Ok, let us forget about cvs which is not really needed nowadays).

There are some issues I have with the situation

1. The tools missing are no longer available from the download page.
2. Does it mean they are simply no longer offered by Rocket?
3. If the missing tools shall be used I have to install them in a different location than the ones delivered via z/OS Miniconda

3. is not really a good situation from an installation point of view.

Do I miss anything? Any recommendations?

Thanks, Manfred

Just thinking...

Let us say I would do the following

• create an internal conda channel
• where I add all tools from Rocket Ported Tools which are not part of Rockets conda base installation and zoss-appdev channel
• if I discover that Rocket has added such a tool to zoss-appdev I could remove it from my own channel

Does this sound like a good idea?
