[opensuse] 11.1: adding sourc rpm repository to Yast
by Malte Gell 12 Jan '09

12 Jan '09

Hi there, I just added the source rpm repo to YaST, but, when I try to get the packages from this repo, none is shown, i just see an empty window.... the path is ok, the repo is activated and download.opensuse.org is available, so what is wrong there, is this a bug? You can browse the repo with Firefox, so the path is correct, but YaST shows no packages for this repo...

Re: trigger for asterisk16 on OBS, was Re: [opensuse] PHP Applications [Was: MediaWiki For openSUSE 11.1?]
by Andrew Joakimsen 12 Jan '09

12 Jan '09

I dont use Asterisk 1.6 (yet), but I seem to recall it being included in openSUSE 11.0 even on the DVD. Even the build of Asterisk 1.4 is failing in the OBS, so it seems to be more of a 11.1 issue than anything. FWIW IMO you should not bother to setup an Asterisk package in OBS. This is a basic function that should be fixed.
