Hi,
As requested by darix, I'm emailing oS-buildservice to ask for a new osc feature - capability to build a whole project (eg. KDE:KDE4:UNSTABLE:Desktop) with one single command.
Currently there is only possible to do things like $ osc build PLATFORM ARCH BUILD_DESCR
Which restricts builds to a given PRJCT:PGK so if one wants to build a whole project the following won't work: $ osc build PLATFORM ARCH PROJECT
With my osc feature request something like it would be possible.
For what I have understood, darix pointed out that to do that some API changes/exposing would be needed or so, which seems to concern him a little.
- Build service/osc team, what do you thing about this request? Do you thing it's possible to implement? Any limitations? - Users, please let developers know if you also like this idea!
The discussion has just began...! ;-)
At the moment I wouldn't know how to implement this in osc. osc would need the information from the backend which determines the order of package builds. Otherwise, it sounds like a very useful idea.
