[opensuse-factory] we have a beta3 - but why the different content types in the directories?

... <http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/11.1-Beta3/iso/> vs. <http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/11.1-Beta2/iso/> contents. cheers. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

We wanted to try something new :) Seriously: we want to automate the distribution building more than it is usually. And so we decided to go for a more stream line directory structure. Is there any concrete problem with it?

Perhaps because the mirror is still downloading it. Wait, and if it doesn't get corrected, report it. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.

I don't think too many mirrors download their files directly to a publicly accessible directory while they are readable. If they did, I would consider that a bug in itself, since it would cause too many bad downloads I also think any sensible sync should first delete old files, or at least move them out of the way, before downloading the new, since otherwise people might get old bad files Anders -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

I see another discrepancy.

I find this very confusing.

isn't that because beta2 and beta3 are _releases_ which are all under /distribution? and /factory is current development tree..

Well, for one thing, factory is divided on two different places in the download.opensuse.org site. It should be all on just one place, IMO. The other problem is that the download development page switches to the download stable version if you select expert view, when it should show the expert view of the develpment version, or an error. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.

Beta is not part of Factory, Factory is just the source of it. Just as you don't put apple juice in trees - if that makes sense.

It isn't? Now I'm much more confused and surprised. For me, a beta is just a snapshot of factory at a certain date: ie, it is factory. Now you say it is not? I don't understand anything.
