Hello,

While checking and helping set up another helper for sle11 builds on devel projects I noticed each of the projects does it by its own and even if it is almost the same in result, the methods to achieve it are slightly different.

What would be really nice is to have some project "SLE11:BuildEnablement" which would link on the required new packages (automake, autoconf, cmake...) and set properly all the required projectconfig stuff:

Like setting aliases for pkgconfig -> devel package or properly fixing some bugs that were never backported in rpm macros.

After this would be set-up then we could adjust all the develprojects to inherit from this project, rather than do it each on its own...

Would this be desired and would anybody be willing to work on this?

I had started such thing for my own needs in home:rudi_m:bldchn Currently I have only these binaries: openSUSE_11.4 automake-1.12.6-1.3.noarch.rpm autoconf-2.69-43.1.noarch.rpm m4-1.4.17-47.1.i586.rpm SLE_11_SP3 automake-1.11.1-8.1.noarch.rpm In past I had more packages there but I decided to just reduce BuildRequires for my other packages to avoid the need of auconf/automake at all. cu, Rudi -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+owner@opensuse.org
