[opensuse-factory] Tumbleweed vs. 12.2
Hi Greg, just a heads-up. I am slowly preparing to upgrade to 12.2 on my laptop. There are packages that are already obsolete with respect to 12.2. So I think all kde-4.8 packages (4.8.5 in kde repo, 4.8.4 in 12.2) and at least the following list from package_list should remain in Tumbleweed after you do the switch to 12.2. I'm currently building those in my home repo to see if there are any other that zypper reports to downgrade. But OBS is slow at these times as there are zillion packages in the queue. devel:tools/systemtap devel:tools/perf Base:System/powertop Base:System/libpcap network:utilities/tcpdump devel:tools:scm/git devel:tools:scm/mercurial Virtualization/kvm Virtualization/qemu thanks, -- js suse labs -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

That sounds about right. I want to get KDE 4.9 into Tumbleweed, and I think it's better to start off with a new release with an "empty" Tumbleweed for a few weeks, to ensure that the base system is all solid and working properly, before adding packages on top of it.

Base:System/powertop
Base:System/libpcap
network:utilities/tcpdump
devel:tools:scm/git
devel:tools:scm/mercurial

Ah, thanks for the list, I'll use that. Which reminds me, somone _is_ going to be switching over the "current" symlinks on the servers to point to 12.2 when it is released in a few hours, right? :) thanks, greg k-h -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

I couldn't live with some older packages, so I've added git, mercurial, kernel-firmware, and powertop to the tumbleweed repo. Hopefully I can wait a full week before updating the kernel package... thanks, greg k-h -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

LOL, looks like it's like a drug :).

And those who want kernel 3.5, they still can use kernel:stable repo in the meantime... (Like me.) BTW. I have a kde-4.9 list for tumbleweed. As soon as I confirm it's working for me, I will create a pull request. thanks, -- js suse labs -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

I've just respun the 12.2 livecd with 4.9.1 from KDE:Release:49 on top with no issues, so I expect it will go onto TW easily at the moment.

Yes, I think so too... -- js suse labs -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Great, but watch out for the package links in KDE, they seem to always trip me up. greg k-h -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
