I understand that you feel this is the "correct" way to do this, unfortunately, it's not what I feel is the "correct" way, and given that almost no one else is helping out with Tumbleweed[1], well, that's the way things have worked out.
I know how they've worked out, and that's not likely to be revertable.
But I'm thinking about how to handle it going forward; what did you think about the two specific suggestions?
Um, sorry, I forgot what those two specific suggestions were, care to refresh my memory, this has been a long email thread :) Note, I could create openSUSE:Tumbleweed:11.4 right now, and repopulate it with the 11.4 packages I previously had, and then just leave it alone, would that be acceptable? Moving forward, I don't have anytime to maintain the 11.4 repo, and don't want to mess up my scripts to have to handle multiple lists of packages and repos any more than I currently have, although in thinking about it, it wouldn't be all that hard, but I would not be doing _ANY_ QA or testing or support for it, it really would just be a frozen snapshot.
And - what kind of help would you need?
Someone to maintain it, keep it up to date, test it, fix problems when they come up, and answer emails and forum posts from users who are having issues. If someone wants to do that, I'll gladly assign them to the 11.4 repo and they can go to town. It's not trivial, but it's not a full-time job either. thanks, greg k-h -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
