I remember that there used to be a problem with mandrivia not recognizing OBS reposotories. Has this been fixed? Is it a problem with OBS or Mandrivia?

Thank You.

It's still a problem with Mandriva; their urpmi tools can only read hdlist, not the standard repodata format, which is used with obs. I remember a patch or some talk about hdlist generation implementation into obs, but that was a bit back, wonder if that finished? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org

Hi,

Yes, I started porting the needed tools, but I have become stuck on one package which will not compile on openSUSE or SLES. It is a small perl app which works with rpm libs.

Calling all perl/rpm internal gurus.

Cheers,
