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>
Hi Malcolm, So anyone could screw it up by producing forbidden packages. Could anyone point me to some rules saying what can't be built (I couldn't find any)?
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
Hi Yes, but they still are being built on the Open Build Service by users (as in home repos) when they are not allowed....
I don't understand, are you saying that it is allowed for those pacakges to exist in the Arch Extra repo on the OBS so long as users don't build them in home repos?
