Well, that is what I tried, but I was unable to use osc the way you
described it.
I am using an Debian Etch test system and got up to step 5, but then osc
downloads 3 or 4 packages and fails with "Error: No more mirrors to
try." This happens with a number of different packages, subsequent calls
to osc download 3 or 4 other packages and then fail the same way.
Once it runs out of files to download (or so I guess) it fails with a
python error and refuses to launch.
Osc indeed sounds like a useful tool and I would love to use it to debug
the issue, but I simply don't have the time to debug the issues osc
seems to have with its own build system.
If there is an easy fix for the osc issues I described above, please do
let me know and I will gladly use it. Thanks!
Regards,
Michael
P.S.: The python error thrown by osc yields the following traceback:
