Hey all!
I didn't post this bounty, but it came across our system and it seems like you guys might be able to earn a quick bit of money on this one:
http://gun.io/contracts/16/rpm-based-install-for-etherpad-lite-on-rhel-128
Any takers?

Moving this to epel-devel, which may be more appropriate.
I took a look at last night and this is what I discovered:
- Current etherpad 1.1 seems to require scala 2.7 and does not like 2.8, which is currently packaged for Fedora (not epel). Apparently patches exist to make etherpad compatible with 2.8 at the expense of 2.7 compatibility, but have not yet been merged in.
- scala as currently packaged requires jline and shtools. shtools is easy, jline less so. But scala bundles jline and could probably be used for the purposes of this bounty.

I think Rich is talking about Etherpad-litehttps://github.com/Pita/etherpad-litewhich doesn't need scala, but node.js.

Node.js is not shipped with Fedora due to bundled library madness ( which is quite unfortunate for us since it's gaining popularity amongst developers ) however I think T.C. Hollingsworth repository is the official unofficial repository for node.js for Fedora 15,16 and RHEL 5 & 6 hence any spec file written should require what ever is there I believe. ( feel free to correct me if i'm wrong ).
On related note do we have anykind of packaging guidelines/policy for components that uses node.js since we dont ship it?
For example could etherpad-lite be shipped with the distribution when it depends on 3 party repo or would it be put in T.C. Hollingsworth repository if he would be open for it along with any other component that requires node.js?

Just to resurrect this discussion, we now have Node.js packaged in Rawhide and the -testing repository of F18[1]. It's not yet being pushed to stable because it's not guaranteed ABI-stable until 0.10.0 is released, but it's sufficiently-packaged that you could start the process of packaging etherpad-lite now if you want to.
Go forth and hack!

+1. nodejs-0.9.5-9.fc18 can be found in updates-testing repo.
Also, because of not following this thread from beginning (just found this *single* email in packaging@l.f.o mailing list), I am curious if someone starts packaging etherpad-lite or not. If not, I can start doing that.
