What is the difference between Support and Keep? Like, let's say I have a package FOO that I'd like to always be installed in the build environment, *if* it is available. If it is not available, block all other builds until it *is* available, but do not block FOO itself. How do I do that? Is there a way to configure a project with more than one repository with different configurations (such as, when using repo A, substitute foo for bar)? -- Jon -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org

Just add it as "Support". "Keep" is for keeping the package X itself in the build root, even when package X itself is building.

You can use %if "%_repository" == "images" Support: .... %endif for example. bye adrian -- 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 just tried this and nothing builds. I have Support: FOO BAR in the prjconf, and neither FOO nor BAR will build because the OBS claims they buildrequires FOO, BAR. -- Jon -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org

we don't have such a support. It conflicts with our goal of reproducable builds. You can of course switch the use of such a package (set) on and of via some macro in prjconf, but that would not differ to adding and removing the Support lines.
