Where is the issue? If you link to openSUSE.org:X11:Drivers:Video, just add the 'real' blobs to the package of your local OBS.

I'd have preferred a 'single point of change' for the entire thing. Like this I have to grab the pkg file whenever there is an update for example. but do-able.. I'll give it a try. Will have to analyze the spec file how much it likes having the two different pkg.run for 64bit and 32bit.

I'll gladly offer my server for building the RPMs and I can host them on my Better forget about factory. The kABI changes all the time. Or do you want to host the kernel RPMs as well, so these get updated at the same time? Providing these for 10.3, 11.0 and 11.1 would be sufficient.

As I'm following Factory myself closely (have it running on 2 systems.. compared to 11.1 only one 1) I was thinking of having the KMPs too on the server. (Greg, please don't shoot!)

Remember, you can not redistribute these packages, so you better not make them public for anyone else to get :)

What you do on your own systems is up to you.

So you're going to sue Dominique if he does?

If he redistributes the prebuilt nvidia driver, I will take the same action that I have taken against other individuals and companies that distribute such a thing in the past. Knowingly ignoring someone who violates your copyright doesn't look good if you wish to do future enforcement of your copyright.
