Re: [opensuse-kde] KDE 4.8 and KDE:Distro:Factory

Hi,

I would like to put KDE 4.8.0 (or 4.8 RC3 rather for now) into
KDE:Distro:Factory. The reason is the sooner we start, the better we find
the problems.

Currently we have 4.7.4 in KDE:Distro:Factory and in KDE:Release:47. I
would like to have your opinion on how to move forward:

a) I copy KDE 4.7.4 from KDE:Distro:Factory to KDE:Distro:Stable, and
delink KDE:Release:47 from KDE:Distro:Factory. Then I Import KDE 4.8 into
KDE:Distro:Factory and copy whatever is needed from Unstable:SC to make it
build and work.

This would mean that future maintenannce updates for 12.1 are based on
4.7.4. I think that is okay, there have even be requests to release 4.7.4
as a maintenance update (in general we're pro this change).

b) I delink KDE:Release:47 from KDE:Distro:Factory and leave it at 4.7.4,
and then import KDE 4.8 into KDE:Distro:Factory (and copy whatever is
needed from Unstable:SC to make it build and work).

in this case 12.1 updates would stay on 4.7.2, users who want the later
fixes would need to switch to KDE:Release:47


I prefer a). any comments?

+1 for a)
If by delinking you mean copying (aggregates too, especially libqt4), sounds
good to me.
