- How could a packager be helped to make his life easier? - How could we attract more maintainers of other distro's and have output compiled for us?
One is get them to use openSUSE. Sounds stupid, I know, but I believe a lot use debian and therefore make deb. How hard is it to write correct specs for SUSE if you already have deb specs? Could a tool be made to do this for them? If yes, then all deb could be made into SUSE rpm's and the other way around as well.
Actually we have such a tool developed already in-house and I guess it is planned to deploy this. Ciao, Marcus
