Listmates,
I suspect that the 10.3 repositories have been deleted with 10.3 reaching EOL, but I thought I would get the official word. So what's the story? Are the 10.3 build service repositories gone for good or have they been moved to another location in the old repositories directory like 9.3-10.2?
Adrian has disabled the 10.3 repos from all projects (a bit early). The projects can readd them from the DISCONTINURD branch.
(We basically also need the build power as we lack some powerful buildhosts currently.)
10.3 lives another week only, October 31st is the last day of maintenance.
Ciao, Marcus
This means that all the packages built for 10.3 that were stored at download.opensuse.org/repositories/ were removed and will not be available anymore anywhere. If yes, it is very sad. I understand that because of EOL no new packages will be built but do not see why had to remove all those great and working packages. Making a complete backup of the repository is not easy for everyone. Futhermore I am satisfied with 10.3 and I would not be reluctant to upgrade if there was not that KDE4 issue with the 11.x versions. I do not understand either why one should upgrade if his system works well, and take the risk that something will be broken in the new system. (Eg. I could not make vpnclient/ssh work in 11.1 on the same hardware).
