Hi all, Since there is no Geo specific mailing list, I decided to bring some issues to the factory list: 1. GRASS 7 has been released some time now. We are still maintaining 2 versions in Geo repository: grass (6.4.x) and grass7 (7.x). I think we need to merge grass7 into grass package. The question is: should we create a grass6 package for 6.x users? I am sure those users exist out there... 2. PostGIS 2 is out for quite a long time. We have postgis and postgis2 packages in our repository. postgis is disabled and all binaries are wiped out for some time now (since we removed RedHat based repositories). Question: should we merge postgis2 to postgis? and drop postgis2 package? 3. openSUSE 42 has been added to the Geo project. There are some dependencies missing, but things look good in general. Should we add the needed packages in Geo repository or submit the needed packages to 42? 4. QGIS 2 is out for at least 2 years. There is no point to keep qgis and qgis2 packages anymore. Otto has proposed to have qgis package (latest stable release - 2.10.1), qgis-master (nightly build from git, as we already have) and qgis-ltr (Long Time Supported Release - 2.8.3). I agree to drop QGIS 1.x package. 5. Several Geo packages are now in Factory so we should be very careful with what is enabled to build in Geo repository. Those packages should be used from the upstream openSUSE release (eg. geos, hdf5, proj). I made some adjustments to fix this issue. 6. GDAL made it to Factory but was never released as part of a stable openSUSE release (it would be released in 13.3, so we need to submit it to 42). Also GDAL 2.0 was released some days ago. I am sure that most downstream projects are not ready for the switch. Should we create a gdal2 package or just wait a few months?
