Well best would probably be if buildservice would export also sources in similar location where binaries are exported.
That would be something to suggest on buildservice-opensuse@opensuse.org. I think other people have been thinking the same. However it might be difficult for space reasons.
Although I don't know why the sources (which so far require a login) couldn't be publically visible. Anyone?
WEll, the src.rpms are exported as far as I can tell. Just look for example: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/games:/arcade/openSUSE_Fact ory/ src/
or were you looking for something different?
Something different -- the question was about the tarball not packed inside a source rpm.
Actually, I dream of an "source.opensuse.org" org, where everbody can browse / download sources, maybe even build logs without to login.
It's all already there, there is just a "login" in front of it.
maybe also with svn/cvs/webdav/... interface. If we would have this, we could drop building src.rpms by default and use the mirror space for something different ...
A simple HTTP interface would do, so that people can look at the sources, see what's there, pull tarballs, whatever.
-- without needing to log in.
I guess this is not too hard to implement, esp. given our existing rails infrastructure. If anyone wants to work on this, we can support you developing it and also with direct access to the web server ...
No, it doesn't sound hard.
Maybe I forgot why we do _not_ provide read-only access to everybody... if there was a reason, what was it?
bandwidth and server load .... However, look at services like websvn.kde.org . This kind of service is still used of people with svn access, simply because the usecase is different. So I _think_ it makes sense also to have an interface adapted for this read-only / browsing case. And than we can easily put it on another host to give most of our bandwidth to active people. -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) email: adrian@suse.de --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org
