Oh, no, there are many more than those. There are basically two "positions" on that: 1) yes, you're right, it's pointless and there is much more build power on build.o.o (also a lot more packagers though ;)) 2) we had those packages first, it's not ours to remove, and the people who are using the packman repository also use packman because of those (and only want to add one big repository instead of a dozen of repositories from build.o.o) I'm probably exaggerating position 2, and it's not difficult to find out which one I'm endorsing *cough*, but it's a somewhat loaded discussion. cheers -- -o) Pascal Bleser <[email protected]> /\\ http://opensuse.org -- I took the green pill _\_v FOSDEM XI: 5 + 6 Feb 2011, http://fosdem.org
