Hello,

I'm trying to build some backports of openSUSE:Factory packages, targeting stock openSUSE 10.2 + updates, and am not sure whether I need to add the openSUSE:10.2 repository, openSUSE:10.2:Update, both, or just the openSUSE 10.2 option that I can select without going to the advanced page on the web interface.

Does openSUSE:10.2:Update include openSUSE:10.2 ?

Yes.

It is recommended especially if you build kernel modules.

It is only recommended, if you build kernel modules. Otherwise openSUSE:10.2 is recommended. see my other mail ;) -- 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

Ah, thanks. So the standard "openSUSE 10.2" that people get if they do not select the Advanced option is just openSUSE:10.2:Update/standard ?

Just curious: What about building PHP modules? Is PHP maintained with a stable API/ABI or should I build against the :Update repo?

It should be API and ABI compatible ( note **should** although it **may** not be..heh :P ),

;-)

but if you build PHP extensions,please drop me a note in order to add them to server:php:extensions and avoid duplicated work,

Feel free to include php5-magickwand from home:cboltz there ;-) Package status: - works on 10.2 (including latest updates) without problems - at least my customer didn't complain about any problems... - not tested on 10.3 - which is slightly different because of a patch only applied in <= 10.2 because of a too old ImageMagick Disclaimer: I can't promise to maintain the package actively because - I only need the package as "worksforme" ;-) - I already had to patch out a feature to make it 10.2-compatible. Therefore I don't want more features or a newer version...

if for some reason updates break ABI I will either fix PHP to avoid that or build the extensions against :Update repo.

Please also drop a note to this ML if this ever happens... Regards, Christian Boltz --
