Good question. I don't know the answer. I know that one can upload an entire distro and load that into the OBS to build against, you'll likely need special permissions to do that on the official OBS though I'm not sure. At this point, I think we need to get some more info on; 1. The nature and purpose of the various 1.2 point releases 2. How to configure these to build against in the MeeGo OBS I think perhaps Joel C. can answer the first one and Anas the second one? > The one thing that I am still confused on...

To peer into the repo I think you'll have to go to the separate repo URL. I am not sure if there is a way to introspect the entire package list of one of those repos from the OBS though that sounds like a very good feature. > Thanks for putting up with us old, slow men. heh, you can't be older than me. :) Nor slower.
