Hi, with osc release 0.8, the local build feature is more useful. So far, the local spec/dsc file was not used for the calculation of BuildRequires and the like; it always used the checked-in version. Now it is possible to upload the local specfile to the server for that purpose, and this is what osc now does. There is also a few other changes in this release, some of which have already been sitting in svn for a while: - build: let envvars OSC_SU_WRAPPER and OSC_BUILD_ROOT override config - build: allow 'dynamical' build-root setting by using %(repo)s and %(arch)s - add 'createpac/editpac' and 'createprj/editprj' subcommands which are similar to 'editmeta' but should be more logical to find - added 'deletepac' subcommand - added 'linkpac' subcommand - added 'buildhistory' subcommand (formerly 'history'). This gives out some raw xml at this time - added ".git" to the excluded files - fixed issue with uploading files when an intercepting web proxy was in between osc and the api server - fixed creation of new packages/projects The release is available at http://software.opensuse.org/download/openSUSE:/Tools/ or from the svn https://forgesvn1.novell.com/svn/opensuse/trunk/buildservice/src/clientlib/p...
