[opensuse-gnome] GNOME 2.26 for openSUSE 11.1

Hello,

The KDE people, when they build newer KDE for older versions of
openSUSE, use their Factory project. If the older openSUSE version
doesn't provide a requirement (eg, a newer version of a package from the
base distribution), they link it to their KDE Factory repo, and disable
that particular package for the Factory build.

Have a look at KDE:KDE4:Factory:Desktop and for instance the libgpod3
package to see what I mean.

I'd like to do the same when we do backport GNOME 2.26 for openSUSE
11.1.
Would this approach be OK with everyone?

Thanks,
Magnus
