You show a prjconf for Meego. I already have this, and have loaded it

still need to use obs_mirror_project to mirror the Meego files.

This process is not documented except to say that the file must be
edited and process requires a login on build.meego.com which I do not
possess.
What is it mirroring? The package repos? Those are
mirrored at kernel.org. (I honestly don't know what's being
mirrored... but the pkg repo makes the most sense... just a
guess)
build.meego.com doesn't have a public rsync which you need
for efficient mirroring. So, to mirror from there you would
need a log in. However, kernel.org DOES have a public
rsync.)
Or maybe asking nicely...
I think you'll find I did ask nicely. Why so defensive?
You mean today? I think in the context of the discussion...
there are many who would not consider that message "a polite
request."
Or maybe do it the hard way... like /they/ did.
So you admit it's not as easy as you and others have previously claimed?
I've never done it. I don't know if it's easy or hard.
Looks like it's probably a lot easier than setting up the
FTP server system that Debian uses. (Not buildd... the one
that they /really/ use.)
I don't have a Core 2 server so I need to rebuild the packages -
I rent a virtual one for about US$25/mo. Hosted in a data
center.
otherwise known as bootstrapping. Which is why I asked how to
bootstrap. You are telling me that I must rebuild the packages by
rebuilding the packages. Can you see why I find this a little bit
I still don't understand your problem. If you're rebuilding
packages, why do you need Core 2? Are the packages using
assembly code or something?
Or are you trying to use a pre-built binary of OBS or
something?
