[opensuse-packaging] Can packages in the 11.4 standard or update repos build against tumbleweed?
Can packages in 11.4 standard or update repositories build against packages provided in the tumbleweed update repository.? I've filed bnc#696826 about 11.4's lv2core-devel's lv2config being unable to function due to a lack of package python-redland. The LV2 plugin system cannot be used at all if the package can't build against lv2core and slv2, I submitted new packages lv2core, slv2 and an updated redland package that included the python bindings before 11.4's release, lv2core is in the 11.4 distribution but slv2 is still in review, here is it's history :

Descr: New package slv2 is a library to make the use of LV2 plugins as
simple as possible for applications.slv2 is free software (GPL v2
or later) written in C99 using the Redland RDF toolkit, and is
known to work on GNU/Linux and Mac OS X. This package is the
other part of the slv2 lv2core needed for openSUSE packages to
use the LV2 plugin system and compliments submit request sr#59624
the home url for this package is
http://drobilla.net/software/slv2/ apart from the url and licence
all of the other relevant information is contained in submit
request id 59624

and this is sr#62078 the last request which is still open :
Request #62078:

This last request effectively blocks slv from even going into factory. There was a comment made in a reply during one of my many emails pleading for slv2 to be accepted that it was a duplicate of a Packman package and I replied that it's purpose was to enable multimedia applications to build with support for LV2 plugins and openSUSE packages cannot build against Packman packages.
I'm busy updating qtractor from 0.7.8 to 0.7.9 the earlier version would have been in 11.4 had slv2 been present and now it seems that version 0.7.9 is also going to be blocked.

I originally created the lv2core and slv2 packages when a user requested LV2 plugin support for ardour which isn't in the main distribution but he was happy with the result and this verifies that there isn't anything wrong with the package. Maybe I violated an openSUSE rule inadvertently but if nobody explains what it was I may do it again. I'm passionate about openSUSE multimedia and I feel that it presents an important face of openSUSE.
