The repository is ~ 7000 source packages. Publishing only happens when all of them are completed.
Meaning: openSUSE:Factory is useless as a continuous integration & delivery vehicle, and for testing. "Yay."
Or publishing needs to happen incrementally, [...]
Think, for example, that libcurl4 became libcurl5. But now you have 6999 other packages that more or less depend on libcurl4, which is no longer present in factory -- and this would make installation from scratch practically impossible. If you publish incrementally, you might suddenly end up with a state that cannot be installed at all. That sucks even more. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
