Hello,
The KDE people, when they build newer KDE for older versions of openSUSE, use their Factory project. If the older openSUSE version doesn't provide a requirement (eg, a newer version of a package from the base distribution), they link it to their KDE Factory repo, and disable that particular package for the Factory build.
Have a look at KDE:KDE4:Factory:Desktop and for instance the libgpod3 package to see what I mean. I'd like to do the same when we do backport GNOME 2.26 for openSUSE 11.1. Would this approach be OK with everyone?
Thanks, Magnus
Indeed, this seems to work well for them as I have had no issue with their 4.1 builds for 11.0 +1. Ye I use KDE too at times.
