Hi Axel, Carlos,
I'm somewhat in doubt here as to my possibilities to carry this project to OpenSuse.
On the one hand, I have been using (open)suse and al of the OSS with it for I think more than 15 years, without contributing much more than an occasional bug report. So I feel - already for some time - a moral obligation to be of a little more value. Therefore I definitively would like to give it a try.
On the other hand, reading the posts of Carlos in this thread, I very much doubt my skills here. I've never even read a spec file, let alone altering, let even more alone creating it. So, I would need a LOT of guidance, close to "someone else does the job, and shows me how he/she did it".
If you - well, more special Axel :-) - think that's feasible, let's go, and see where "het schip strand", as we say in Dutch.
IMHO, you will not get OBS to build unless you are able to build regard3d at home. The compiling problem will be the same in both places.
But again, if you try on OBS then all the logs are public (IIUC what Axel said) so other people can help to get the build to work. If you try on your own system then you're pretty much on your own to solve any problems. Many hands make light work :)
I tried, and I have done more than one compilation. Once upon a time, I was a dev. And I failed.
Don't tempt me ...
