But, what I need from you all, is a request for what packages do you feel I should be updating right now, and hopefully you can provide a pointer to the repo for where these packages are (if they are only in FACTORY, that's fine as well.)
i find /repositories/X11:/XOrg/ at http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/X11:/XOrg/ very useful. the packages included in the standard repos perform much worse in my experience than the latest from this one. BUT it's not guaranteed to be working always. a week ago or so these packages broke X for a day until they were fixed again,
Yeah, that were the submit requests with this clever idea to export only supposedly private symbols. No answer to the question why the submit requester did this. I won't accept submit requests by this user any longer. It has not been the first time his submit requests broke X. Last time they broke older distros as development system by removing .la files ...
and also yesterday i found that a new update caused XOrg in some way to hug 50% of CPU, until it was fixed a couple hours later.
Didn't know about that one.
just linking to this repo wouldn't work therefore, but once a stable update is out, it would be great if a snapshot of that could be included in tumbleweed. i'm not exactly sure if or how this can be done, but it would definitely be desirable.
Yeah, maybe each time a new X.Org release is built in this repo. That would be X.Org 7.6, scheduled for end of November 2010, but still not released yet.
