[opensuse-factory] OBS project cleanup candidates
Hi folks, during our never-ending quest in cleaning up OBS projects, I encountered some projects which could easily be merged: network:messaging (1 pkg) network:messaging:amqp (5 pkg) and Apache Apache:Modules Apache:MirrorBrain I'm sure there are other worthy candidates. IMO it's not worth keeping projects around which either belong together or contain less than 10 packages. Also, maintainers come and go (such as repositories to build against) and updating the meta-data for all those projects is tedious, if it happens at all. While we're at it I'm sure Adrian would appreciate it if we could move them into the devel: tree. -- With kind regards, Sascha Peilicke SUSE Linux GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, D-90409 Nuernberg, Germany GF: Jeff Hawn, Jennifer Guild, Felix Imendörffer HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

and
Apache Apache:Modules Apache:MirrorBrain

It could be interesting to know what packages really interest users to know what maintain too. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Vote here: https://features.opensuse.org/306193 AFAIK, it only requires some optimization to make a web-based interface feasible. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

AFAIK, it only requires some optimization to make a web-based interface feasible. I have vote for it but we have a lot of problems about dependencies. The purposed softwares are some times uncoherents, with for example gcc whose conflicts with libgcc_s1. We need to have a way to follow, only one version for dependencies,... -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

"science:vlinux" was merged into "science" not long ago [1]. So we can delete "science:vlinux". [1] https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=778430 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
