Hi everyone, before creating the opensuse-cloud mailing list, we have had a discussion between Christian Berendt (B1 systems), Gregory Haskins and Patrick Mullaney on the OpenStack packaging in the OBS project: Virtualization:Cloud:OpenStack[1]. Consensus was reached to collaborate on the OpenStack packaging for SLES and openSUSE and to create a primary repository for those packages. We also agreed on fixing some issue with Virtualization:Cloud:OpenStack, such as the fact that it currently requires users to add additional project from the build service to their system in order to be able to use the OpenStack packages. Bernhard Wiedemann and I have been working on preparing packages in home:cthiel1:openstack, that are based on the work of B1 systems. We fixed a number of bugs and tested those packages on both SLES 11 SP1 and openSUSE 11.4 and now feel comfortable to moving those packages to Virtualization:Cloud:OpenStack. With the move, we will also make changes to how the packages are built, ie. build against the base distributions. This will enable users to just add the Virtualization:Cloud:OpenStack repository and get OpenStack working. We are using the latests stable OpenStack release, codename "cactus". As soon as the next OpenStack release is done, we'll upgrade the packages in Virtualization:Cloud:OpenStack to that release. I'm looking forward to hearing your feedback. The submit requests to Virtualization:Cloud:OpenStack are being created as I write this...
