... it has been like that for quite a while now. I don't know what was the motivation behind the split, but I can imagine that this speeded up the build cycles on OBS dramatically.
With coreutils being a very basic core package, the split had two main reasons. The first one was reducing the build time and the second one that running the testsuite adds dependencies on packages that the build doesn't have. Being that at the time the split was requested it was hinted that it was planned to add to obs so that you could fail the build of another package I grudgingly did the split. Of course that feature never materialised... Philipp -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org
