[opensuse-buildservice] OBS, far more work then on Launchpad for Ubuntu
Hi, As said before I prefer OBS above Launchpad, but one thing bothers me atm. On OBS I have to build a lot of (depends) packages which I don't have to build on Launchpad. About 2/3 of my project are dependencies to make it able to build the packages I want. I guess this is due to the fact that Launchpad adds more repo's by default then OBS does. Does OBS only add the main repositories? Why and is it possible to add more repositories, to avoid an unnecessary amount of work and time (and space)?

well, you can add any other additional repo, eg. devel:languages:perl one if you need a perl module package from there. No need to build them yourself in your project/repo. The main projects (like openSUSE:11.4/standard) only contains the packages which are part of the official release. So only them are maintained. If you need other packages someone has to maintain them, in worst case you. -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE Linux Products GmbH email: adrian@suse.de -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org

I like to add these (official) Ubuntu repo's to my project, is that also possible and why are they not added by default? deb http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid-updates main restricted deb http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid universe deb http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid multiverse deb http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid-updates multiverse Cheers! ~ P -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org

They would need to get reviewed because they contain partly illegal content (in the POV of our legal team at least) which we are not allowed to distribute. So we can not import it into our instance atm. And I lack the time to review all the packages. But if there are just a number of urgently needed packages, I can import just these.
deb http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid-updates main restricted deb http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid universe deb http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid multiverse deb http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid-updates multiverse
