Hi,

i have ppc working here and I am testing it regularily (Adrian knows it ...). Its only a matter of changing some 10 lines inside the code and config. Also you need to install also the ppc versions of the distro of interest in parallel to x86, which I in fact do to run it. Do I understand well, that you use x86 machines to compile PPC?

I would write it down here if you whish. I have tested it with svn trunc -r 4170, which is more or lesst OBS 1.0 rc1 Is http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/openSUSE:/Tools/openSUSE_11.0/src/... equal to OBS 1.0 rc1? This is the latest version available as far as I can see...

Anyway, I'm downloading it and trying to install it on my PPC machine... Bye, CzP

Hello,

I got now a bit stronger PPC machine standing next to my desk ( http://en.opensuse.org/MPC8610 ). This brought me the idea, that I should recompile some buildservice projects for PPC (like: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/X11:/Enlightenment/ or http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/KDE4:/UNSTABLE:/Desktop/ ). Before trying it myself I read some of the documentation, but I still have a couple of questions:

- does the buildservice work at all on PPC?

yes

...

- if yes, is it a simple recompile of all files at http://ftp-1.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/repositories/openSUSE:/Tools/openSUSE_11.

0/src/ on PPC?

they should compile also on ppc. Tell us if not and we try to fix it.

...

- is it possible to check out a project from BS, like KDE4:/Unstable:/Desktop and recompile it locally for PPC in one go? I mean, without needing to compile individual source rpms one by one and needing to figure out the build order...

You can setup your own build service, create source links to our remote instance and compile it at your side. You would just need to import a ppc based distro into some own project first.
