Hey,

I guess, that using link is a the standard way to implement more spec files in the Build Service.
It seems like it could be a lot simpler to the end user. It seems to be a question that comes up fairly often on the list, and while I think we'd all ideally see a single spec file for all platforms, it just isn't always practical. Moreover, it seems to be largely undocumented as the blessed way to do this.
Well, here is a less hacky way: 1. Create package foo with foo.spec. Enable it for FACTORY only. foo.spec will be used here by default. 2. Link this package to foo-old. 3. Place new spec file into the foo-old. 4. Edit _link file and say, that you want to build from foo.spec, not foo-old.spec. 5. Enable foo-old only for older products.
Yikes. This seems even more hacky. Editing _link files and such? I'd prefer a checkbox in the web UI and an osc command. :) Joe --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org
