Hi All, I would like to announce a new openSUSE repository X11:Enlightenment:Released. This repo will sit alongside X11:Enlightenment:Nightly. Seen as people were asking about the nightly repository on the list yesterday i can say that Sleep_Walker has been updating it a few time a week and e17 works along with Escape from Booty Bay, Elemines and Terminology to name a few along with most other things that can be found in the svn repo with the exception of a lot of the modules in e modules extra. As well as building for openSUSE they also build for recent versions of Fedora, Mandriva and CentOS.
Idea is to build it nightly and check the results in the morning but now the whole repository takes longer to build so it should be build ~ 3 times a week if there is no issue.
The Released repo as the name suggests contains only released software currently it contains EFL 1.7.1 Python-EFL 1.7.0 (only builds for openSUSE) As there is no release of e17 yet it contains the last snapshot and will continue getting updates as new snapshots alpha's and beta's are published.
Release early, release often :)
Once e17 is released it will only contain the released version. Currently terminology 0.1.0 is also included as well as econnman which comes with a big warning that connman in openSUSE has no proper support, Sleep_Walker has put together a repository for it (link below), when i tried it the other day it was possible to get it to work but it was still missing systemd integration so i wouldn't recommend it for non advanced users, I will post again when it works.
Connman is built somehow but the package doesn't contain client yet so the use is limited to econnman abilities. Connman widget doesn't recognize econnman package and shows only error message after click. _Idea how to connect these things together would be appreciated._
Again there is also some support for Fedora, Mandriva and CentOS. I haven't tested these other distro's yet however i will create VM's for them at some point and will accept patches if provided, we figure that given it takes no or very little effort to build for these additional distros with OBS we may as well.
I'm afraid that Mandriva builds doesn't even comply Mandriva packaging policy (libeina vs lib64eina) so you can take it as yes-it-builds.
I would like to thank and give credit to Sleep_Walker with the exception of minor changes all the spec files have been written by him.
There were also some others during Hackweek 7. Their temporary ardoud shouldn't be forgotten either :)
*Developers *if you have a application that uses the EFL builds with 1.7.* and has had a release, if you provide me with a tar or a link to a repository and a revision number to checkout I will happily add it to the Release repository, more applications would be useful not just for users but testing as well.
As Nightly repository is following SVN (GIT ;) repository to help Enlightenment to catch build failures, the Release repository should be the one to be used. I'd like to have Released repository pushed to openSUSE:Factory (the project which the next openSUSE release is based on) and it will reach broader audience. As the version users should use, make releases (can be even alpha or beta) and inform us. We (and probably you) would like to have it there. Simon, Released repository means a lot of work. Tracking version dependencies between all needed dependencies is just huge task. I'm grateful that I'm not on this only by myself, thanks. Best regards, Tomas Cech Sleep_Walker
