But you see that the build is disabled for snapshot repo for the most packages https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/openSUSE:Factory This means it is freezed to a former state of factory. > Actually they don't even exist before the release, that is, only > released products have images and standard repository flag. > > And you must check out how frequent openSUSE:Factory updates and how > frequent download.o.o/factory-snapshot updates, they're not a same > frequency (I think). > > And to my experience, the "snapshot" you mentioned is the only flag > you can use on creating Factory build targets.

The upcomming 13.1 will be openSUSE:13.1 I don't know how exactly the 13.1 project is configured but I know that (currently) the 13.1 (rc1) download repo is just a redirect to factory-snapshot, see http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/13.1/repo/oss > And that branch has been created weeks before. > > openSUSE:Factory is now going towards 13.2. Yes but snapshot repo is still freezed. cu, Rudi _______________________________________________ Packman mailing list [email protected] http://lists.links2linux.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/packman
