[opensuse-factory] how to build against TW?
Is this the wrong approach to build against TW? <repository name="openSUSE_Tumbleweed"> <path project="openSUSE:Tumbleweed" repository="standard"/> <arch>x86_64</arch> <arch>i586</arch> </repository> According to the build log ncurses-devel-6.0 was used, but this pkg is not yet in http://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/repo/oss: https://build.opensuse.org/build/home:olh/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/x86_64/mutt/_l... Looks like mutt is linked to /lib64/libncursesw.so.6 which comes from ncurses-5.9. Since I updated mutt earlier this week strange chars get displayed for threading info.

This is corrrect
According to the build log ncurses-devel-6.0 was used, but this pkg is not yet in http://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/repo/oss: https://build.opensuse.org/build/home:olh/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/x86_64/ mutt/_log

Sadly, building against openSUSE:Tumbleweed does not mean you build against what is being published on the server; in fact, openSUSE:Tumbleweed/standard is actually nothing else but a trick to mask openSUSE:Factory/snapshot for you. As you all know, openSUSE:Factory/standard is the 'currently latest package that has been checked in to openSUSE:Factory' no hidden tricks or agends. openSUSE:Factory/snapshot is a bit trickier: the snapshot is updated in intervals, which are not 'very transparent': in fact, whenever opensUSE:Factory/standard plus the main devel projects of openSUSE Factory are 'build completed', then /snapshot is being updated. So there is NO relation to openSUSE Tumbleweed (the released snapshot on the FTP Mirror). In 'normal' cases, the issue is not that big, as we aim to get snapshots out every day (or so)... but with the last weeks issues, a lot has piled up and especially with ncurses, some hidden issues are showing. My hope is still high on the current snapshot (20150924) that is currently being tested... if all goes well, this might be releasable finally again. Hope that clarifies it.

This is the 2nd week where we were not able to publish a snapshot. We're having bad luck.
let me thank you for the other days's day's input on #opensuse-factory which led me to re-consider switching back to openSUSE after leaving it due to problem with recognizing my Kyocera printer. I put Leap on my netbook and the desktop will follow soon with TW...I'd like to start with GNOME-3.18. Any estimation for it? It's great to see what you have in staging and I hope that I'll be able to help somehow with GNOME@openSUSE...openSUSE looks as nicer system to use/admin and with lower barrier to entry for contribution. Sincerely, Gour p.s. I see that there are postings on this list which originates from Gmane. However, despite being subscribed to the list (nomail option), my attempts to post via Gmane did not go through despite Gmane page (http://dir.gmane.org/gmane.linux.suse.opensuse.devel) saying 'posting allowed. Any hint how to accomplish posting via Gmane? -- For him who has conquered the mind, the mind is the best of friends; but for one who has failed to do so, his mind will remain the greatest enemy. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Perhaps openSUSE:Tumbleweed/standard should start to match /tumbleweed/repo/oss, what prevents that? Looks like openSUSE:Tumbleweed and openSUSE:Factory have to be separated in some way.
