[Server-devel] Moodle langpack and configuration trick

[Martin Langhoff]

Hi list,

Working iwth the La Rioja team, I rolled a new moodle-xs RPM that can
pick $CFG overrides from files dropped in /etc/moodle/conf.d/ .

Right now we're using it here to install a langpack and set it as
default. But it can naturally be used for other advanced configs
without messing with the "config.php"  that ships with Moodle rpm.

The full trick is here
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/XS_Techniques_and_Configuration#Example:_Install_and_configure_Moodle_language_pack

And yum --enablerepo=olpcxs-testing update will bring down this new
Moodle (nothing else new in it really).

cheers,
