Guys, I think we forgot something: The KDE Platform's new profile system. <http://ervin.ipsquad.net/2010/04/29/kde-platform-profiles-its-alive/>
If we ignore this now, it'll come back at us in 6 or so months. So even if Build Service won't build all available profiles right from the start, because Novell isn't interested to create a Netbook, Smartphone, or Tablet variant of openSUSE, the repo structure should at very least support it if some community members step in an create a repo for KDE SC Mobile or so.
That is a rather big 'if'. I somehow can't quite imagine enough people to take care of tripple the amount of current repositories, so we might as well just end up with more complicated layout that is needlessly deep.
I don't know which profiles are available and how their names are exactly, but after reading the thread on kde-core-devel I guess it's Desktop, Netbook, Tablet, and Mobile (=Smartphone/Handheld).
This means, whatever the deeper subfolders will be called, there should be KDE:Desktop KDE:Netbook KDE:Tablet KDE:Mobile
The current structure actually does support this, in a way. The current profile is the default, and if one day there really will be people packaging other profiles, then KDE:Profile can be simply added as a specialization. I personally think that doing more would be thinking way too big. -- Lubos Lunak openSUSE Boosters team, KDE developer l.lunak@suse.cz , l.lunak@kde.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help@opensuse.org
