Feature changed by: Sankar P (psankar) Feature #308074, revision 4 Title: Provide way to do a local build and upload the binaries to the repository Buildservice: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Sankar P (psankar) Description: Most of my time in build service is spent in seeing "Scheduled" There are always 1000s of packages waiting in queue for i586 and x86_64. I have a pretty powerful machine and would like to do my own local build and upload the binaries to the project repository. Discussion: #1: Pavol Rusnak (prusnak) (2009-10-12 22:20:30) I think this is not going to happen because of the security implications. #2: Nikanth K (nikanth) (2009-10-13 05:32:20) one could upload malware One could upload software which violates license, copyright etc... Even GPL software without the correct source Defeats build service.. What you are asking is an FTP server, and an easy mechanism to upload local builds from `osc build` which should be advertised with big fat warnings... but I am not sure about usefulness of it... Anyway if some one trusts you, just do an osc build and provide the RPMs using some other means + #3: Sankar P (psankar) (2009-10-13 07:42:22) + I dont understand how this could lead to security implications. + I am not asking everyone to provide a way to upload binaries for every + project in OBS. Whatever project I am the Maintainer of , I should be + able to upload the binaries. + Even now, I can upload whatever I want in my home:<user> project + (license violation, non-gpl-non-foss-binaries etc.) and create an RPM + packaging the binary-crud I uploaded and make it available via the + repositories. So, providing the ability to upload locally built + binaries in no way increases any security issues, imho. + Or do I miss something more that someone can explain me ? + #4: Sankar P (psankar) (2009-10-13 17:23:04) + If there are still some concerns, this feature may be restricted to + home: projects. I find it increasingly frustrating to jsut see + "scheduled" for sometimes 2 days in a row. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/308074
