The end-of-life concept is not quite applicable to the LDM because its
development model isn't the same as, for example, operating systems. Instead,
the LDM is continuously (episodically?) developed but with backward
compatibility a primary goal. Users are always encouraged to adopt the latest
release.
Here's an example of upgrading:
su - ldm
wget ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu/pub/ldm/ldm-<version>.tar.gz
gunzip -c ldm-6.13.13.tar.gz | pax -r '-s:/:/src/:'
cd ldm-<version>/src
./configure --disable-root-actions >configure.log 2>&1
make install >install.log 2>&1
sudo make root-actions
cd
ldmadmin stop
rm runtime
ln -s ldm-<version> runtime
ldmadmin start
We don't use the end-of-life model partly because the LDM has had less than one
full-time-equivalent developer working on it.
Regards,
Steve Emmerson
