I would like to build rpms for X86_64 but I can't at the moment because I haven't access to a x86_64 system. I have planned to buy one many times but always found other better (and urgent) way to spend the money, you know.
At this point, I'm wondering whether SuSE/Nowell can give access to some suser's to build the rpms in any of its machines. I'm not sure about the posibility to do that without root access, but I would be a big help for some of packager guys (as me). I'm not suggesting a compilation farm, which is oriented to the development. I'm meaning some rpm-builder machines. This would have also the advantage to build in machines with standard configuration/packages in it.
What do you think?
Exactly that is what the build server that will start to come in early 2006 (http://www.opensuse.org/Roadmap) is all about. Providing build power, different architectures, better build time checks, meta data generation etc. to packagers. Henne -- Henne Vogelsang, http://hennevogel.de "To die. In the rain.
