I don't or fail to understand your comments. You want to build packages to provide access to items that openSUSE cannot legally provide, but do not want to *use* that distro.
I want to use the 11.2 official release when it's ready. I don't want to use a for me not working Milestone. :-) Me trying to build the xine-lib was just an idea. I wanted to see if I can do that easily... I can't : I'll wait for packman

Does this mean that flac-devel will not be on the repositories for the 11.2 release?
milestones) if you add the videolan repo and use vlc and you do not need to build anything.
I do understand that, And I'm happy that the VLC lovers can already test their favorite media player under the Milestones. I would love to be able to do the same with kaffeine. The way things are right now I have the impression that it'll be a surprise when 11.2 official release comes out whether people will be able to make xine work with the packman builds or if it will just not work...
HOW can you test m6 and advise items you believe broken or missing w/o using the distro.
Well, I download the installation DVD, I make a full new install. I try to use everything that I use usually, and then I send a message to this list for everything that is not working for me, hoping to get an advice if I should, yes or no, make a bug report and hoping that for the final release things will work.
Helping or attempting to help when the direction or need is unclear is *very* difficult at the very least.
Please tell us *really* what you want, specifically, and perhaps you will loose some of the exhibited frustration. :^)
Sorry if I give you the feeling of frustration. I don't have it :-) But I will, if these things will still not work on the 11.2 official release :-) So what I want here is: - a comment about should I file a bug report or not. - get the attention of the developers (thanks for your great work) to the things that don't work here - my problems to be fixed from MS7 up to eternity :-) Hope this helps :-) Thank you Karl -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
