[...] Why? First, it is worth observing that the very nature of OBS makes it difficult to pursue that goal. Because in OBS, for any project/package there is only one spec file - and therefore package version - for ALL repositories.
In other words, it would be impossible for a maintainer to configure a package to build foobar-1.2 on openSUSE 11.3 but foobar-2.1 on openSUSE 12.1.
First and foremost get the package into the distro instead of building it in some random repo. The whole point of the distro is to be a collection of packages that work together. Secondly, you can have different versions of foobar in the same project by naming the source directories e.g. foobar and a foobar.openSUSE_xy. Only the latter would be build enabled for openSUSE xy while the former builds for everything else. cu Ludwig -- (o_ Ludwig Nussel //\ V_/_ http://www.suse.de/ SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Jeff Hawn, Jennifer Guild, Felix Imendörffer, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+owner@opensuse.org
