Hello,
I am trying to provide a distribution (SLES15) in a local OBS instance without using interconnect. For this I copied "meta" and "project config" from both SUSE:SLE-15-SP1:GA and SUSE:SLE-15-SP1:Update. After that I adapted the DoD repositories to use the SUSE Manager as package source. I also removed some repositories I don't have a subscription for (HPC, Livepatching), and some I don't need.
For everything to work properly I had to mirror the complete repo "SLE-Module-Development-Tools-OBS" with "obs_mirror_project". Everything works as planned. A Kiwi-Template against GA has all packages from "Install DVD" and a kiwi-template against Update has the newest packages. But I have some problems with understanding. 😊
- Where does the content of the "SLE-Module-Development-Tools-OBS" repository come from?
it is a repo produced only for OBS (build.opensuse.org). I am not aware that you can get it via SCC/Manager.
- This repo is available in both the :GA project and the :Update project - are they identical?
yes.
- Do I have to update this obs repo regularly?
well, not for the binaries, but you may need to sync prjconf from time to time. Since this is an independend copy now.
- Furthermore I don't understand the existence of a "pool" or "pool-sp2" repository - what is it for? - Or also, why does the repo refer to the previous SP project (here SUSE:SLE-15:Update) - do I really need the old packages?
I am actually not sure why we have the pool repo there. We should not need it and it is not used when building against the "standard" repo. -- Adrian Schroeter email: adrian@suse.de SUSE Linux GmbH, GF: Felix Imendörffer, Jane Smithard, Graham Norton, HRB 21284 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstraße 5 90409 Nürnberg Germany -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+owner@opensuse.org
