Maybe it's me but I don't understand it. This "process description" is full of jargon not understandable for an outsider like me.
A simple question: Which action is appropriate if one thinks that a package should be updated from Factory?
I've checked these packages and I'd recommend to update them to the version in Factory to get upstream's bugfix releases into Leap: - openldap2 - freeradius-server - unbound - nsd - nss-pam-ldapd - sudo
I'm not authoritative here but can try to explain what I understood so far.
Start with checking the current package origin for 15.1: curl -s https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/openSUSE:Leap:15.1/00Meta/looku... | grep openldap2 openldap2: SUSE:SLE-15:Update
There are several possible results: - SUSE:SLE-15* - openSUSE:Leap:15.0(:Update) - openSUSE:Factory
openSUSE:Factory: means you have nothing to do. The latest version in Factory will be pulled in at a certain point (before package freeze).
SUSE:SLE-15*: That seems to be the hardest as you need to convince SUSE to consider an update for SLE15 SP1. So there should be good reasons for the update request. Please check out this recent thread: https://lists.opensuse.org/archive/opensuse-factory/2019-01/msg00486.html
There is sometimes another alternative here where if the package maintainer feels that the newer version is of significant benefit to openSUSE users but doesn't meet the requirements for a SUSE update. The package could be swapped to being a openSUSE:Leap:15 package as long as someone is willing to do the extra work to maintain it. If someone from the community is happy to work with the SUSE maintainer to do the work its probably more likely. But this will vary greatly from package to package so the first step is still creating a bug report to discuss it with the maintainer. -- Simon Lees (Simotek) http://simotek.net Emergency Update Team keybase.io/simotek SUSE Linux Adelaide Australia, UTC+10:30 GPG Fingerprint: 5B87 DB9D 88DC F606 E489 CEC5 0922 C246 02F0 014B -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
