These rpms are installebale on debian as well, since this is the format defined by LSB. So, better have something to be able to install and run than nothing, no ? -- 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

if those rpms are supposed to be build for debian in first place maybe. but in the end you got a mixup of different dependency systems. how should an rpm on debian see the stuff provided by debian packages? imho we should only provide native packages. darix -- openSUSE - SUSE Linux is my linux openSUSE is good for you www.opensuse.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org

Does the BS use the old payload format by default on that systems? Anyway, I agree with darix here, RPMs on Debian systems are not the intended behaviour and should be disabled by default.

Dunno, it depends on debian's rpm version.

I agree it's more confusing than helpful. +Thomas -- Thomas Anders (thomas.anders at blue-cable.de) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org

so far most comments tend lean towards native packages only. so can we disable the specfiles on deb distributions? darix -- openSUSE - SUSE Linux is my linux openSUSE is good for you www.opensuse.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org
