[opensuse] Priorities in the build package?
Is there a way to set the priorities to which rpm package the build system use when setting up the build system? I have several directories with rpm packages in, and of course I want build to use the newest package if there are more than one version in the directories.

From my experience using both the build script and the build service, if
That will specify the paths to the RPMs, but that doesn't specify the priorities for the packages, which was what was asked. there are packages with the same package name, then the package with the higher/highest version number seems to be the one that gets installed. Where there are multiple packages that satisfy the various build dependencies, you'll very likely to end up with a "have choice for..." build error[0] unless you specify which package to install.

It seems like that doesn't work right.. Example is aaa_base package. I have 2 versions, one on the DVD and one from the update repo. The latter is the newest, but it grabs the one from the DVD anyway.. Anders. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
