I thought support for 11.1 ended at the beginning of this year.

Project Evergreen bases on 11.1.

Then they should take care of it and create a static repo. Sven -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help@opensuse.org

Hi,

could some kind soul with KDE: admin privileges readd these targets for the KDE:Release:45 and KDE:Distro:Factory projects at least?

E.g: add this segment to the respective project:

<repository name="openSUSE_11.1"> <path repository="standard" project="DISCONTINUED:openSUSE:11.1:Update"/> <arch>x86_64</arch> <arch>i586</arch> </repository>

Besides that you had some really lovely style to complain about that on - buildservice I would argue against adding it for KDF since the whole reason 11.1 got removed was to save buildpower and KDF isn't build that often ... NOT.

IOW perhaps add it for some :STABLE or KR4X repo but not KDF. Last but not least Evergreen is more for servers so running it on a desktop is kinda ....

retro. Point taken. What about: KDE:Distro:Stable KDE:Release:45

Or why exactly do you insist on still running 11.1 desktops that can't be updated to 11.2?

Well, I have some use of it, that others may profit from, since while I'm retro in some aspects, I'm ahead in others. The area, I care most is PyQt related, which is reflected by my OBS projects - e.g. you will not find more current or even snapshot builds of python-sip and python-qt4 anywhere else, as I build them automatically. Same goes with eric. During that course, I'm one of the first persons, that see incompatibilities between Qt, sip, PyQt and python-kde4 (which happen from time to time), and preferably in the newest versions of each. Personally, I'm experimenting with Qt animation framework, if time permits. As noted already, I'm not able to simply move my personal desktop - I would also need to upgrade all desktops of some companies. I'm the one and only all-tier support desk for them. I'm still waiting for KDE 4 to close the gaps to KDE 3, raise stability significantly _and_ provide some business relevant advantages - e.g. a desktop search, that is able to deal with IMAP stores, and the like, before I will take the hassle to switch them.. OTOH, a lot of churn happens right now - OpenOffice vs. LibreOffice, MySQL vs. MariaDB, Firefox 3 vs. 4, where any breakage I will be taken all responsibility for. If the debian packaging wouldn't be so drain bamaged, I would have left SuSE ages before. Being a KDE and a RPM fan, I've kept using openSUSE, but my gut feelings are, that this project is constantly steering in the wrong directions (for my usage patterns), and suffers from (profit induced) human resource limitations. Unfortunately, we cannot clone people like Dirk Mueller, Will Stephenson, Lubos Lunak, Stephan Kulow and Karsten König (just to name those, that I noticed over the years) often enough to solve these issues quickly.. Before you got me wrong - I would spend way more time in the KDE project, if free time would permit. But even my family got only a few hours for the whole last week _including_ the weekend. And that only a little below the usual level. Pete -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help@opensuse.org

I don't know about the other people but, I am running 11.1 on my laptop with KDE 3.5 and 4.5 because it has a ati graphics, and a Realtec wifi card. I had to compile the drivers to get these to work in 11.1 but I could not get these to work in 11.2

Dear KDE-Maintainers, please either tell us, should we go and link the whole KDE:Distro:Stable KDE:Release:45 in some home: projects, or are you so kind to add the "DISCONTINUED:openSUSE:11.1:Update" targets, please. I would even take maintainership for this, if you prefer. Robert, if the situation didn't change during the next week or so, I'm going to prepare a script, that does exactly that, and leave a note here.
