Stefan,
The idea was to make a repository 'Generic' (name subject of
discussion) (in the Webinterface, add repo, advances, name Generic and
base it on SUSE 10.1/Standard)
I'd only activate i586, but that's just to have it compile anything.
The package anyhow is set as noarch.
The link from the games:strategy:turn-based to the other is basically a
good idea. Maybe I'll come back to you for some help with this (as I'm
only able to access the webinterface at the moment, the possibilities
are somewhat limited)

Adrian,
The people from YUM ML are more than unwilling to implement any new
things inside YUM, they already claim it to be much to complicated :-)
BUT: a solution came up, which is already implemented and based on the
.repo files:
Such a file CAN contain more than one Repository including all infos,
like:
[channelName]
name=A sample repository
baseurl=http://..../BinaryRepo/OS/Version
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=.....
enabled=1
[channelName-data]
name=A sample data repository
baseurl=http://..../DataRepo/
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=.....
enabled=1
By adding the .repo file, both Repos would be added.
This means, that we should try more to push the usage of these .repo
files than subscribing directly to a channel.
Do you know: can these repo files already be understood by
rug/zmd/libzypp/yast ? Maybe a small enhancement on them, that when
adding a repository they look for *.repo and interpred them (in case
only a URL, without a .repo is given)
And then one question for UFO:AI: I would like to move that one to
Games:Strategy:turn-based (which has not been done due to this
data-sharing problem).
Can the Build-Server be configured to have a games:data repository and
add that one as a 2nd repository in the .repo file of at least
games:strategy:turn-based? Probably it could suite other games as well:
I think Wesnoth, Torcs and so on also have unified DATA Files all over
the repositories. So this one could be added to all games:* repos.
Looing forward for a reply / comments

Hi,
I guess that is a not-yet-implemented theorie. Up to now, I've never
seen BS using my Release-Number inside a spec file, but always replacing
it with n.1 / n+m.1 (or by retriggering n.o / n.o+1)
But it would be nice if at least the spec file would be respected (as
on a local build, the spec file is fully respected for this)
Dominique
Strange things happened overnight.
When I woke up this morning and went checking my home project on the BS,
I found out that every single package is being rebuilt.
Even though some already finished, I still have 57 packages on
'scheduled' status, and 3 on 'blocked' (which I've never seen before on
BS).
Anyone knows what's happening?

Darix,
In normal case, this is probably true, but in a case I just had, it was
BAD:
- I have a package in my home-repo, linked to an outside, public repo.
- I modify a pkg in my home repo
- as linking is not working in the BS, I have to delete the link in
games:...
- I recreate the link in games:...
BS builds the package, starting with %{version}-1.1, even though the
old package was 'already' at 1.2.
So the only solution I had in this case was retriggering the build
process twice to fix this.
In my SPEC-File was written Release 2.1.
You see, it might be a good choice to interpret the release in case
it's a higher number compared to what BS is offering/suggesting. There
ARE some pacckagers, that seem to think from time to time when they do
something.
Regards,
Dominique
Hallo.
GNOME projects have been finally created. Simple description follows.
GNOME:STABLE:
This project contains packages from the stable branch of GNOME.
Current status: Initial sync was done. Will be synced with SuSE Linux
FACTORY. No development here. Please send any changes to GNOME
maintainers (sbrabec(a)suse.cz, rodrigo(a)novell.com, gekker(a)novell.com) and
ask them to include them to factory. Each backport specific change must
use %if %suse_version.
GNOME:UNSTABLE:
Testing of forthcoming GNOME version. Once it will be considered as
stable, packages will be copied to GNOME:STABLE and further development
will continue in GNOME:UNSTABLE.
Current status: Independent development can be done here. No usable
packages are here.
If no packages will appear here soon, it is possible, that we will use
this repository after 10.2 release for testing of move of whole (STABLE)
GNOME to /usr.
GNOME:Community:
Repository for any related GNOME packages, opened for anybody, who wants
to participate, with no connection to SuSE Linux releases.
If anybody else is interested to become a maintainer, I can add him/her
to all of these projects.
Feel free to submit to any projects, but remember the sync policy. If
you will do any successful change in the synced project, please don't
forget to send the change to SuSE Linux GNOME maintainers. You will get
confirmation about accepting it to FACTORY.
There is not yet any policy about sync dates and times. I plan to do it
manually at least for next few weeks. Please suggest any future policy
(weekly, 2-3 times a week, daily, if package foo is building correctly
in factory, anything else).
Note: Maybe it is technically possible to check for changes from the
last sync, but I am not sure, whether it is / it is not an effective
way.

Is it possible to upgrade?
