[opensuse-packaging] How to resolve one package dependency problem
Hi all, I have a problem with workrave (X11:Utilities) package. It requires python-cheetah for build, unfortunately there is no such package in openSUSE_11.3 (in my branch I link it against devel:languages:python). So how do link single package against another repo? Or should the link be added to the project X11:Utilities? If so, how could it be done - I'm only a maintainer of this package, is there some ''request add link'' option? regards Stefan

You can link or aggregate the python-cheetah package, see http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Build_Service_Tips_and_Tricks#link_and_aggre... the _link and _aggregate section of the page has an explanation what it means and shows example on how to implement it.

Thanks for tip - but I'm only a maintainer of the single package, so I cannot link another package to project. Is there any magic trick for submit link to project? Stefan

Not sure if I get what you are after. Maybe you are looking for a submitrequest? -> osc sr ......

Yes, I think so (and already have done so). I'm just curious if is there any possibility to link one package in project against another projects pkg - just to prevent space. Stefan

That's what _aggregate and _link are for.

You do so by building against that package in said project instead of a simply the project. To do so, go to the 'Add Repository' tab in the web interface, click on the 'pick one via advanced interfac' link and then enter project and package in that dialog.
