It would make sense to provide this script with the distro. That way newbies will not have to install anything before they can provide info to receive help.
In my mind pulling the script to /usr/bin 
(cd /usr/bin && wget -Nc smxi.org/inxi && chmod +x inxi) and distribute it, would be the best. I am sure there are smarter ways to do this but I am after the result: 
Install Mageia and start using inxi, without having to install it.

Now available in Cauldron: inxi-1.8.13-1.mga3
Is it on Mandriva 2010.x or shall I have to wait for backports?

And according to Sophie, it is only in Mdv *backports* for 2010.x

If it's available in Mdv 2010.x (main or backport), it needs an update request.
I will work on it. Thanks for the info Marja.

That was my interpretation of what it says here https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Mgarepo#The_package_doesn.27t_exist_yet_in_Mageia_1  too, but someone told me Mdv backport doesn't count. However, you have more authority and it should have been more clear in that paragraph if Mdv backport packages are excluded, so I'll change the settings of this report.

Advisory:
-------------
The package inxi is available in Mandriva 2010.x but was missing in Mageia
1 and Mageia 2 (so upgrades were broken). This update fixes this issue by
providing inxi to Mageia distribution.

Packages:
-------------
inxi-1.8.13-1.mga1
inxi-1.8.13-1.mga2

How to test:
-------------
- Just try inxi to check it works.

Carolyn tested this mga1 32, passing on her comments from the ML.

--------------
Mga 1 32-bit tested the following:

inxi -d
inxi -G
inxi -l
inxi -M
inxi -N
inxi -N -A
inxi -S
inxi -x -d
inxi -xx -S

Nothing unexpected displayed.

This is ready to be validated but may need to be a backport instead of an updated. It is only present in mdv2010 as a backport, not in release or update medias. Currently awaiting a decision from council.

Comment 16 thomas bjo 2012-07-17 16:05:32 CEST
inxi -r Does not work.

The output looks like this in Arch:
Repos:     Active arch repo servers in file: /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
           http://mirror.archlinux.no/$repo/os/$arch
           http://arch.ping.uio.no/$repo/os/$arch
           ftp://mirror.archlinux.no/$repo/os/$arch
           ftp://arch.ping.uio.no/$repo/os/$arch

           Active arch repo servers in file: /etc/pacman.conf
           http://repo.archlinux.fr/$arch

It would be great if it could be implemented.

Just asked it upstream.
It's not a package issue.
Comment 18 Damien Lallement 2012-07-17 16:09:11 CEST
FYI: Repos:     Error: inxi does not support this feature for your distro yet.
So, it works! It's just not recognize Mageia.
Comment 19 thomas bjo 2012-07-17 20:43:18 CEST
Yes Thanks! If you had not told me I would never have discovered that. :)
The idea I think, is that a Mageia dev contributes to the script so that Mageia repos can be shown.
Comment 20 Dave Hodgins 2012-07-17 23:51:09 CEST
Just a reminder everyone, as a noarch package this update could
have been validated once it had been validated on either
architecture for both releases.

Regarding Comment 19, the inxi bash script would need to have code
added for urpmi.  It currently has apt/yum, not specific for any
given distro.

Validating the update.

Could someone from the sysadmin team push the srpm
inxi-1.8.13-1.mga2.src.rpm
from Mageia 2 Core Updates Testing to Core Updates and the srpm
inxi-1.8.13-1.mga1.src.rpm
from Mageia 1 Core Updates Testing to Core Updates.

Advisory:  This update adds inxi, a command line system information
script for console and IRC to Mageia 1 and 2, that was present in
Mandriva 2010.2, but missing from Mageia at release.

Yes and Pacman I believe, since the repos turn out fine in Arch too.
