Hello,

I'm a user of Arch Linux and have been playing with the OBS lately. I've succesfully created arch packages (PKGBUILD) which build correctly. However, some packages i'd like to throw in the OBS require the arch Community repository, which doesn't seem to exist in the OBS yet.

It would be great if the community repository could be added. I'm sure more people will benefit from it, according to this thread: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=150272

Yes, please could the 'community' repository be added. The packages I am trying to build would also benefit from this. The 'community' repository contains some popular packages such as VTK.

Myles Hi It probably contains stuff that is not allowed to build on OBS, hence not included?

The following is not directed at you, just an observation ;)

<rant>Trouble is other Distros (and openSUSE) come and use OBS and can potentially screw it up for the rest of us by producing packages that are forbidden</rant>

There are many examples I come across, ffmpeg, cmplayer, mplayer etc

Hello. ffmpeg and mplayer are provided via already supported Arch Extra: http://pkgs.org/search/?keyword=ffmpeg http://pkgs.org/search/?keyword=mplayer -- Best regards, Dmitriy DA(P).DarkneSS Perlow @ Linux x64 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+owner@opensuse.org
