[opensuse] Subversion on SuSE
Does anyone here run subversion on Suse boxes? I noticed that no updated subversion rpms have become available for SuSE since 1.3.0 -- --Moby They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety. -- Benjamin Franklin First they came for the Jews and I did not speak out because I was not a Jew.

Daniel Thanks Daniel, I run 1.3.0 and it runs fine as well - I was curious as to why no updates had been released. Subversion itself is upto version 1.4.2, while the latest RPMs available from SuSE are 1.3.0. I may just have to uninstall SuSE's RPMs and install the latest Subversion from source. -- --Moby -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I know that the SUSE developers do not always notice that packages have newer versions. I not that the one's I have add to bugzilla as a feature request have all been updated. Maybe someon should file a bug feature request. -- Boyd Gerber <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ZENEZ 1042 East Fort Union #135, Midvale Utah 84047 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Maybe someon should file a bug feature > request. You'll not get Version Upgrades for a released product directly over the SUSE update channel (ok: we have some exeptions). SUSE has a strict policy for released products: no version upgrades, only updates for the version released with the distribution. The "trick" behind it: sometimes developers decide to add new features and perhaps some API changes to new versions. If you have installed a programm on your system and SUSE will deliver a upgrade - perhaps afterwards neither your programm nor any other programm linked against it will execute... Ask people who decided to upgrade their KDE version: sometimes it works, sometimes not. So the answer is: yes, you can _upgrade_ - but you should know that your system can be unstable if something happens with the newer programm version. If you just _update_, everything should work as expected - and even better after the update. The SUSE developers spend a lot of time fixing old versions of a programm. Remember: the programms (and their version numbers!) on SLES10 have seven years support. So perhaps in seven years, a user who has updated his system every day will just have subversion 1.3.1 on his plattform - but this version should be very "stable" then. ;-) Greetings, Lars -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I reported 5 or 6 packages that I use often that had not been updated in a long time. They have all been updated to the latest released version prior to the feature freeze for 10.2. I am very pleased with how responsive the SUSE developers have been. > > I not that the one's I have add to bugzilla as a feature > > request have all been updated.

The upgrade via the build service is at your own risk. But I have been very pleased with how well they have worked. I use them often.
