Thanks a bunch, I'll try to play with those this weekend.
Havew fun (hopefully :) .
BTW: What would be the best way to work on these packages?
(1) Branch, modify, submit request? (2) Checkout "devel:libraries:c_c++" entirely and apply modifications directly?
I'd say that depends on your personal preferences. I do most stuff directtly, i.e. do 'osc co -c devel:libraries:c_c++/netcdf' and 'osc co -c devel:libraries:c_c++/netcdf' and then work on them, i.e. more or less your option 2. For a dependency such as between netcdf and hdf5 I'd first modify hdf5 as needed, copy the resulting packages somewhere and then use the --prefer-pkgs option to osc build to tell the build where to take take the hdf5 packages from.
I certainly prefer (1), I think it is safer.
Do as you like, it's now mostly your playing ground :-) Have a nice weekend Philipp -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org
