[opensuse-packaging] submitting packages for Open SuSE

Hi, I have a set of packages I'd like to submit for inclusion into Open SuSE. Can somebody tell me what is the process? Is there a packagew review phase (as it is done for Fedora Extras)? Or may be there's a wiki page I missed somewhere?

There are better people to help you but... 1. You Ask on right mailing list [1] for account and for right project naming (depending on what kind of packages you want to maintain) 2. You create packages in you home project 3. When everything is ok, you move your packages into "right name" [1] opensuse-buildservice@opensuse.org Additional information: http://en.opensuse.org/Buildservice http://en.opensuse.org/How_to_Participate#Develop_Patches_and_Packages Hope it helps Pavel -- Pavel Nemec Software Engineer --------------------------------------------------------------------- SuSE CR, s.r.o. e-mail: pnemec@suse.cz Lihovarska 1060/12 tel:+420 2 9654 2373 190 00 Praha 9 fax:+420 2 9654 2374 Ceska republika http://www.suse.cz

It's a library I have developped that is called libtune: (extracted from the description I wrote for submission to Fedora extras): --- libtune (Tunables library) is an API that helps accessing the kernel tunables and system information in a "standard way". The actual pseudo-files that contain the tunables values are hidden to the developer, making any binary built on top of this API completely portable across kernel releases or across distro families. The libtune library provides the following features: 1) get the value of a tunable, either stored as a part of a pseudo-file or as a complete pseudo-file 2) set the value of a writable tunable 3) locate a tunable (in terms of the associated pseudo-file) 4) get a help string for a tunable libtune is different from sysctl in that: 1) there is no need to know where the underlying pseudo-file is located: the tunables are manipulated via key words rather than their actual file location. 2) it is possible to get or set a value that is a part of pseudo-file (eg it is possible to get or set semmns value that is part of /proc/sys/kernel/sem). Today, there is a limited set of supported kernel releases, distros, as well as a limited set of supported tunables. Support for new kernel releases, distros, families or tunables can easily be achieved thanks to a set of scripts that are delivered with the libtune API. --- Regards, Nadia --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org
