I oppose the change, too.
Can we extend a bit more? As I see in monitoring[1] there are several packages that do not build in sle11 anymore. According to the page there are
* succeeded: 1386 * failed: 154 * unresolvable: 175 * broken: 3 * disabled: 239
So a significant portion of the packages are not working.
I really doubt that SLE11 users are using d:l:p anymore (but I can be wrong).

Maybe we can take a half step instead.
Keep the repo's enabled but advise maintainers that they are not obliged to keep SLE-11 building if it requires additional effort on there behalf, in that way the people that do care about having package X available on SLE-11 and that are willing to make it work can do so. Packages that are unresolvable, known to have bugs that stop them working in a significant manner or will have security issues under SLE-11 should be disabled for build on SLE-11 with the reason documented somewhere so people know what it takes to get re enabled.
Yes, this should also keep copies of the last successful build in the repo - which is exactly what best serves SLES11 users. SP4 is still in wide usage and support. -- Ralf Lang Linux Consultant / Developer Tel.: +49-170-6381563 Mail: lang@b1-systems.de B1 Systems GmbH Osterfeldstraße 7 / 85088 Vohburg / http://www.b1-systems.de GF: Ralph Dehner / Unternehmenssitz: Vohburg / AG: Ingolstadt,HRB 3537 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org
