Hi,
it would be nice if you could
enable again to have different vendors for
KDE:Extra and
KDE:Unstable:Playground then the one for the main repos
like
KDE:Distro:*
Ok, I think I've created separate vendors for those, but
I wonder now,
does it actually make sense to have it for KDE:Extra? What
would be the
point? There shouldn't be packages that can be also in
KDE:Distro and they
kind of belong together (Extra is an extension of
Distro), so IMO they
should share the same vendor.
On the one hand I agree with you, if everything is perfect the same vendor should be fine. However, as Stephan already wrote, during the freeze in Factory the Community repo was also used for version updates of digikam and others. I do not know if this will happen again, if not, then the same vendor should probably be fine. However there are sometimes packages which are first only in the Community/Extra repo which then go into the distro. If such a package is then still build for the Distro repos which already include it, it also may lead to confusion.
In that case it should get removed from :Extra and only build within :Distro which builds for the same versions so nothing is lost.
So all in all I would say a different vendor is more save/better IMHO. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help@opensuse.org
