New repository layout

We came up with a solution to this, as more and more people
requested having split repositories, in order to control what
they want to use from Packman:
* we will have four repositories instead of one: Essentials,
Multimedia, Games and Extras
* Essentials will be the bare minimum to get your multimedia
experience on openSUSE going (libraries, MPlayer, vlc, ffmpeg,
...)
* Multimedia will contain additional applications that are not
available for openSUSE or only in a crippled build, such as
avidemux, etc...
* Games are, well, games, although we will try to move most of
what may be hosted on build.opensuse.org to the games project
there
* Extras is all the rest
[...]
As an example of what needs to be added to zypper, once the
migration is complete and .repo files are available too:
* add the Essentials repository:
zypper ar -r \
http://packman.inode.at/suse/openSUSE_11.3/Essentials/Essentials.repo
* add the "everything" repository:
zypper ar -r \
http://packman.inode.at/suse/openSUSE_11.3/packman.repo
Hi Pascal (and the rest of the packman team),
so everybody has to change their current packman repository (which atm
points to e.g. /suse/11.3)?
And then decide if they want the whole packman.repo or selected
essentials/games/... ?
