Hello,

I'm a user of Arch Linux and have been playing with the OBS lately. I've succesfully created arch packages (PKGBUILD) which build correctly. However, some packages i'd like to throw in the OBS require the arch Community repository, which doesn't seem to exist in the OBS yet.

It would be great if the community repository could be added. I'm sure more people will benefit from it, according to this thread: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=150272

Yes, please could the 'community' repository be added. The packages I am trying to build would also benefit from this. The 'community' repository contains some popular packages such as VTK.

Myles Hi It probably contains stuff that is not allowed to build on OBS, hence not included?

There are many examples I come across, ffmpeg, cmplayer, mplayer etc

Hello. ffmpeg and mplayer are provided via already supported Arch Extra: http://pkgs.org/search/?keyword=ffmpeg http://pkgs.org/search/?keyword=mplayer

Hi Yes, but they still are being built on the Open Build Service by users (as in home repos) when they are not allowed.... -- Cheers Malcolm °¿° SUSE Knowledge Partner (Linux Counter #276890) openSUSE 13.1 (Bottle) (x86_64) GNOME 3.10.2 Kernel 3.11.10-7-desktop up 1 day 10:14, 3 users, load average: 1.75, 0.76, 0.49 CPU Intel® B840@1.9GHz | GPU Intel® Sandybridge Mobile -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+owner@opensuse.org

Hi Malcolm, So anyone could screw it up by producing forbidden packages.

Could anyone point me to some rules saying what can't be built (I couldn't find any)?

Found it here: http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Build_Service_application_blacklist

Hi Yes, but they still are being built on the Open Build Service by users (as in home repos) when they are not allowed....

I don't understand, are you saying that it is allowed for those pacakges to exist in the Arch Extra repo on the OBS so long as users don't build them in home repos?

If you look at the build log you can see a ffmpeg package being installed.....

This is from the Arch_Extra repository, now if that is deemed ok, then I would expect that the Open Build Service can link to packman? (But I would expect not)....

It's not deemed ok, and ffmpeg/mplayer is now gone from Arch:Extra.

Could the same approach be taken with Arch:Community; add the whole repo then remove some forbidden packages? e.g. these ones: $ pacman -Sl community | grep "multimedia\|fmpeg\|libav\|mplayer\|xine\|lame\|divx\|mythtv\|lastfm\|faad\|faac\|libmpeg\|libmad\|x264" | cut -d " " -f 2 ffmpeg2theora gnome-mplayer libclastfm mate-mplayer mplayer-vaapi mythtv smplayer-skins toolame twolame

Cheers, Michael.
