Request for a symlink to the latest Leap 15.x minor HTTP OS tree
by Erik Skultety 02 May '23

02 May '23

Hi, first of all, if this list is not the right one for this kind of request, please point me to the right direction where it would be. I'd like to request adding a 'latest' or even '15' (any major release version) named symlink to the HTTP OS tree [1] as both to be consistent in how Leap containers are tagged [2] as well as helping other projects/consumers e.g. libosinfo [3] or our libvirt-ci [4] tool etc. to always conveniently track the latest minor release of Leap. The use case of most of these upstream communities is to always consume the latest contents to find regressions and compatibility issues early, and it poses some (not completely negligible) burden for all these communities to manually flip all URLs to flip the Leap release they track to the latest minor when it's released. So, I'm kindly asking whether such a thing could be considered. Regards, Erik [1] https://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/ [2] registry.opensuse.org/opensuse/leap:latest [3] https://gitlab.com/libosinfo/osinfo-db [4] https://gitlab.com/libvirt/libvirt-ci/
