1.) does it need to be able to build sles11 packages, or it is not a requirement to be able to sr it to factory?
Factory and SLE 11 are different products, and while it is desirable to get it running on it, the only requirement is getting it running in Factory.
2.) could anyone with access to SLES 11 SP1 check, why this happens?
This happends due to an "unfortunate" (read crazy) requirement: we have to support /usr in a remote system. so all stuff that gets installed in /bin /sbin must not be linked to stuff in /usr as it may not be available.
Which breaks many many things. People just don't really care about these issues, and I wouldn't call that 'supported' in any sense. It's more like: 'it works if you are lucky'. I think that /usr on nfs, or even on a different disk should just get a reality check, and be finally dropped. People who want it, should really look into making 'read-only /' work, instead of jumping through all these hoops with /usr -- trying something that will never really work. :) Kay -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
