It is absolutely consistent with its purpose, i.e. weekly snapshots of KDE trunk. Not sure what one could misunderstand about that description. It's even speeled out in the first sentence of that repo's description on http://en.opensuse.org/KDE_repositories#UNSTABLE_.28KDE_trunk.29
And your speculations about its usage are pretty useless.
So was your comment. I'm simply saying I won't be using the repo anymore, since the new policy of not remaining with a version until it has been released, but instead moving directly into the next development version is not what I'm after, and I don't see that any regular users could find it interesting either. UNSTABLE used to be for beta testing a new release. There are scripts for checking out the latest source tree and building automatically, which to me makes a lot more sense for that kind of bleeding edge installs Upstream developers probably build their code from source, and suse developers will likely use Factory:, so UNSTABLE to me seems like a waste of time and resources, since I don't see what the target group could be. If you think this is useless speculation that is your problem. I know that build service resources are limited, and shouldn't be wasted on things that no one uses, so I think it is a fairly important question to ask. But if you use it, that's fine with me. I just won't, that's all Anders -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help@opensuse.org
