[opensuse-project] SpiderOak not in OBS for 11.2 / 11.1?
Powers that be. I've started to use SpiderOak with 11.3 and just bought a couple hundred GB of space. Much to my surprise when I went to install it on a couple 11.2 fileservers I could not find it in OBS. I really think SpiderOak is the kind of package that should be available in OBS for all supported versions of openSUSE. ie. Especially for servers, people like myself will make one decision for multiple machines, so having it available for multiple versions of openSUSE is important. I wasn't sure whether to post here, bugzilla, or openfate. Regardless, I hope it gets addressed.

Greg,
You might have to do like me and download the tar ball and install it.
sometimes u should try "zypper search" and find out it isnt necessary that u have not to download a tarball and install it ;) br gnokii -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org

Also... SpiderOak provides RPMs right on their website... both 64 and 32 bit for openSUSE. Not sure why you'd need to pull down a tarball. C. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org

Agreed, and I've just installed that for one of my 11.2 machines. But it bypasses the whole openSUSE software management system. If there is a security bug, I won't get it on this machine. Putting SpiderOak in the online update repo is what I'd prefer to see. If that won't fly then it should go somewhere that would allow me to get a security update via "zypper patch". ie. I believe "zypper patch" is the recommended way to update a server. fyi: I do have openSUSE 10.1 machine I still run. I'll probably try to get SpiderOak on it later this week. Hopefully I can work out the magic for that. Greg -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org

Right.. I know exactly why you (and I) want the apps in the supported repos... I was thinking more in terms of Chuck's comment about downloading a tarball.... which goes a step even further away from managing your apps through RPM :-P C. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org

The reason I like tar balls to rpm. Unless it build by the openSUSE team. I have had bad luck. So by using a tar ball I know it build for my system. Yes, package management is good, but some time you do have to build. -- ----------------------------------------- Discover it! Enjoy it!

This is list about openSUSE project and your problem is a distribution one. SpiderOak was added to openSUSE 11.3 more particularly to Non-OSS repo, where we have closed source stuff. It was not done to older openSUSE releases (yet). If you really need this you might want to contact spideroak packager (rpm -q spideroak --changelog) and he might consider adding a package to older release (although it is not very common).
