It seems I can't aggregate my packages to the :Update repo, because aggregate does not work if there is no update for a package.
Hmm why don't you build directly against the Update repo? You could also build against openSUSE:XXX and openSUSE:XXX:Update. I think there's no need to you an aggregate.
I want more from OBS than just building a few custom packages against various repos. My goal is to track a minimal subset of packages from a distribution and merge the updates. Base:build is similar to what I want, but it tracks factory, and I don't want factory bugs. I want to track a stable distro, and I want updates merged. And, I want to hack some packages the way I like. So for 80% of packages I could use aggregate, and for 20% I could use link. For aggregate, I want the updates automatically, I don't want to search for them myself. But with link, I will review all changes to any package I patched locally. And I want to backport select packages from factory, on a special case basis, where I believe no bugs will bite. I just wonder why no one else has already done this. I suppose SLE is similar, but I want to roll my own small subset of packages, and do it my way. -- Webmail for Dialup Users http://www.isp2dial.com/freeaccounts.html -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org
