[opensuse-factory] RFC: Directory structure for ftp tree of openSUSE 10.2
I've thought a bit about how to structure - and name - the directories for openSUSE 10.2 and like to get your feedback and suggestions for improvement. Goals ===== My goals with the restructuring are: * Clear naming - no misunderstandings * Smaller repositories for faster metadata download * structure should be usable for 10.3 Alphas und final again Separate trees ============== We have several ftp trees (for 10.1: OSS and Non-OSS) and I propose to make smaller repositories for faster download of metadata: * OSS (factory) * NON-OSS (factory-extra) * Debug (factory-debug) * Sources for OSS * Sources for NON-OSS Naming ====== * let's use "repository" instead of catalog, inst-source etc. FTP Structure ============= ".../distribution/openSUSE-10.2" has the following subdirectories: * isos * repositories "isos" directory has the following subdirectories: * dvd - the DVD5 * deltas * non-oss * oss * torrents "repositories" sdirectory has the following subdirectories: * debug * non-oss * oss * source-non-oss - just sources * source-oss - just sources Does this make sense? Do you have better ideas?

Does this make sense? Do you have better ideas?
In general please find short names and don't use plural. F.e. "iso", not "isos", and "repo", not "repositories", "src", not sources", "delta", not "deltas", "torrent", not "torrents". Maybe also one level higher - "dist" for "distribution". And if cd and dvd images shall not reside within the same directory, the names "cd" and "dvd" would be better than "iso" and "dvd".

In general please find short names and don't use plural. F.e. "iso", not "isos", and "repo", not "repositories", "src", not sources", "delta", not "deltas", "torrent", not "torrents".
The reason why we took "repositories" was to reuse existing names on the ftp server (pub/opensuse/repositories) and to make it clear that you can not use this directory directly. You have to go inside and pick one.
Maybe also one level higher - "dist" for "distribution".
I would like to avoid a change here, it would cause too much pain for the mirrors. (and I personally think longer names are better than short ones for most users, who are not famillar with the structure).
And if cd and dvd images shall not reside within the same directory, the names "cd" and "dvd" would be better than "iso" and "dvd".

good point
It seems wuite intuitive to me. I also prefer longer names, if they are easier to remember and much easier to get some sense out of them, which I think is the case here.

It does not take longer time to get a sense for a shorter word. But directory listings have a chance to be readable and submitting URLs has a chance not to get broken if the path names are short. the length of /pub/opensuse/distribution/openSUSE-10.2/repositories/source-non-oss/ already is really crazy and a pain for everyone who needs to spell or type it - a full line already, and still missing protocol prefix, hostname, arch suffix and filename. /pub/suse/i386/9.3/ was a good path naming and length.

I prefer shorter names as well. I always seem to have problems typing in
the longer names and with my Dislexia, I do not always notice the type-o's
I really like the names for the 9.X series. I would really like to see
the names shortend.
Thanks,

+1 /pub/opensuse/10.2 would be enough. Of course 10.2 is a distribution and repeating the opensuse does not help understanding the structure. I also thing repositories is not needed at all. -- Andreas Vetter --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

I am talking of my experience, and for me it takes. But maybe it is just for me.

Well, one thing with be to remove openSUSE, ant it would be http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/10.2/repositories/oss Looks small enough to me!

Mirror problems we do NOT need, but btw, is something everybody knows, why than say: by the way? M9.

What about this to keep it simple and stupid: ../opensuse/distribution/10.2/oss ../opensuse/distribution/10.2/non-oss ../opensuse/distribution/10.2/debug ../opensuse/distribution/10.2/src-oss ../opensuse/distribution/10.2/src-non-oss ../opensuse/distribution/10.2/iso/ ../opensuse/distribution/10.2/iso/cd ../opensuse/distribution/10.2/iso/dvd ../opensuse/distribution/10.2/iso/deltas ../opensuse/distribution/10.2/iso/torrent ../opensuse/distribution/factory/oss ../opensuse/distribution/factory/non-oss ../opensuse/distribution/factory/debug ../opensuse/distribution/factory/src-oss ../opensuse/distribution/factory/src-non-oss ../opensuse/distribution/fatcory/iso/ ../opensuse/distribution/stable/ --> link to 10.2 or whatever I see no need for an additional "repositories" entry. I also would not split non-oss and oss for CDs/DVDs, as the amount of 10-20 iso files fits in a normal browser window. -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Marcel Hilzinger Linux New Media AG Süskindstr. 4 D-81929 München Tel: +49 (89) 99 34 11 0 Fax: +49 (89) 99 34 11 99 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

100% ACK
Goals ===== * Clear naming * Smaller repositories for faster metadata download * Use structure for 10.3 again

* OSS (factory) * NON-OSS (factory-extra) * Debug (factory-debug) * Sources for OSS * Sources for NON-OSS

Yes please, it will definitely help disambiguating. It would also need to be changed in yast/rug/zypper/zmd, but that's somewhat lower priority (and possibly a different topic).
FTP Structure =============
Below .../opensuse/distribution/ we will have a "10.2" with the following subdirectories: * iso * repo
The "iso" subdirectory has the following subdirectories: * delta - delta ISO images * dvd - DVD5 iso images * cd - CD iso images, contains Base CDs and Add-ons (including Non-OSS Addon) * torrent (all torrent files)
The "repo" subdirectory has the following subdirectories: * debug - repository with just debuginfo packages * non-oss - repository with only Non-OSS packages * oss - repository with only OSS packages * src-non-oss - source RPMs for the non-oss tree * src-oss - source RPMs for the oss tree
Perfect.
Factory Distribution ====================
The factory tree should be separated in a similar way:
Below .../opensuse/distribution/ we will have a "factory-repo" with the following subdirectories:
* debug - repository with just debuginfo packages * non-oss - repository with only Non-OSS packages * oss - repository with only OSS packages * src-non-oss - source RPMs for the non-oss tree * src-oss - source RPMs for the oss tree
All in all, much better like that.
Couldn't agree more.
cheers

Actually, I do not want to touch the factory directories atm, because we will anyway move them into the build service later.

We are currently discussion about that with IBM. IBM said they are interested to sponsor the build service for PPC.

Below .../opensuse/distribution/ we will have a "10.2" with the following subdirectories: * iso * repo
The "iso" subdirectory has the following subdirectories: * delta - delta ISO images * dvd - DVD5 iso images * cd - CD iso images, contains Base CDs and Add-ons (including Non-OSS Addon) * torrent (all torrent files)
The "repo" subdirectory has the following subdirectories: * debug - repository with just debuginfo packages * non-oss - repository with only Non-OSS packages * oss - repository with only OSS packages * src-non-oss - source RPMs for the non-oss tree * src-oss - source RPMs for the oss tree
Factory Distribution ====================
The factory tree should be separated in a similar way:
Below .../opensuse/distribution/ we will have a "factory-repo" with the following subdirectories:
* debug - repository with just debuginfo packages * non-oss - repository with only Non-OSS packages * oss - repository with only OSS packages * src-non-oss - source RPMs for the non-oss tree * src-oss - source RPMs for the oss tree

How does this look? Are we fine to go for 10.2 and 10.3 with these? Goals ===== * Clear naming * Smaller repositories for faster metadata download * Use structure for 10.3 again Separate trees ============== * OSS (factory) * NON-OSS (factory-extra) * Debug (factory-debug) * Sources for OSS * Sources for NON-OSS
Naming ====== * let's use "repository" instead of catalog, inst-source etc.

I really like it. I only wish we could shorten distribution to dist.
Thanks,

This is the one I like best :)

Keep it symmetric and use factory/repo/ instead, as already suggested. Nothing else that I can think of.
