I see... so now I have an improvement request, recursive search ;-) The devel project is games, that hasn't any pending change... but games has home:gekker:Factory as devel project, that has an updated version.
devel projects shouldn't have devel project itself, that's insane. Is that a common use case?
In my experience, not really. Isn't the first case I see but I only saw half a dozen at most. But perhaps should? Factory has updated packages (comparing to the latest stable release) somehow "stable". Then there is the devel project, where people is supposed to experiment... and where these packages are "backported", compiled also for older distros. An user that adds the games repo does it because he wants the latests version of a game (sometimes that's a must, the game plays online and the latest version is required by the server), not because he wants to help testing experimental patches. The fact that a single project is at the same time the "devel project" and the "backport project" is difficult to understand. The thing is that at practice the devel projects aren't really "unstable", an user can use the games repo without worrying. So I have no problems continuing like we are, but seems to be a problem in the theory. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org
