So I would suggest to simply create a KR49 repo and mediate via wiki, mailinglist etc. that this repo is (obviously) not stable until upstream releases 4.9.0 and the package names contain 4.9 and not 4.8.85 etc.
Alternatively KUSC could stay as it is. With RC1, packages can be moved to KR49 and everything missing gets added.
If you remember, I in the past advocated for early KR repos to have them ready right on time when the actual release happens. I still think that "Get 4.9 binaries from the KR49 repo" in KDE release announcements is great advertisement for oS. However, the scope of this thread is testing. Personally, I do not have the disk space for a full oS install inside a VM. I think what oS needs is a procedure to test really early DE pre-releases without conflicting with a stable DE release. Doesn't oS ship with patches to change the KDE install directory from /opt to /usr and keep the settings in ~/.kde4 instead of ~/.kde? Why not drop the first patch to install KUSC binaries in /opt and change the second patch to write settings to ~/.kde-unsable or whatever? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner@opensuse.org
