can we please stop with this "SLE_11_SP?" naming and stick on "SLE_11" And the webui should not provide 3 prjs for SLES 11, just one "SLE_11" configure with "SUSE:SLE-11:SP1" (at a miniumum) This naming changes will break "_aggregate" packages.
why at a miniumum SP1 ? - GA is not suppoerted anymore - any build on SP1 should run on SP2 without any problems.
and what to do when SP3 is out ? then use at a minimum SP2.
What about packages that produce kernel modules? SLE 11 SP2 includes Kernel 3.0.x. A module for this kernel can't be built with SP1 kernels, or am I wrong?
You're right. But arguably, there are only very, very few projects that do build kernels or kernel modules. The current scheme is "polluting" it for everything else :\ Not sure how well things work (or not) when one changes "SLE_11" from "SUSE:SLE-11:SP1" to "SUSE:SLE-11:SP2": causes full rebuild? Easy to monitor that rebuild and its failures? cheers -- -o) Pascal Bleser /\\ http://opensuse.org -- we haz green _\_v http://fosdem.org -- we haz conf
