Hi list,

Is there a howto available which explains how to easily build xbuntu/Debian 
packages with the OBS?
Most information I found on the internet require you to have a Debian/xbuntu 
system already running. But since the idea of the OBS for me is to not have 
all that distributions installed locally I would like to do everything inside 
of the OBS.

I also have to admit that I'm used to rpms only - so I do know how to create a 
spec file, but I'm totally lost with the debian helper apps.

I would also like to volunteer to put up a wiki page about creating an "xbuntu 
spec" out of an existing rpm spec once I understood the procedure.
Btw., if wanted I could also help creating a Fedora dedicated page containing 
some useful information you might want to know once you intend to build 
Fedora packages.

Roland
