There are lots of good reasons to switch to OBS
- OBS has a web interface ( lots of ppl including me do lot of
the spec file editing, patching etc. using the web interface from
windows e.g from work PC / mobile platforms)
I'd rather have developers that actually use the distro they build for
and test the fixes themselves too.
- In OBS it's very easy to fix a package for everyone, if you have
an account at the OBS server, just branch it, fix it, submit it (and
wait for approval)
And if you have a mga packager account you can do the same on our
system, if not you can file a bug or send/suggest patches too...
- Package that are on build.opensuse.org can be linked to, inter
instance linking, copying, aggregating (with enough user permission)
is no problem
-ENOTCOMPUTE
- OBS is already used by more than 33,327 confirmed developers.
- Mandriva is also considering it.
- You would do something for inter-distro collaboration (and well we
can discuss this, OBS is the most advanced build system)
Well, inter-distro collaboration happends without OBS too...
Well, I dont see stuff doing hacks like "Obsoletes/Provides gtk3" to
replace the real upstream packages ever being allowed in official repos.
We can remove the obsoletes, it would be just the gtk3 fork of ubuntu
in the repo alternatively installable.
