Hi Actually I always wanted to check out how far we could get with building Qt Creator packages with obs (http://openbuildservice.org/, http://build.opensuse.org/). In theory this should allow us to build rpm/debian packages for various distributions (OpenSUSE, Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora and Mandriva) with 'native' packages that get dependencies etc right.
Any thoughts / comments on this?
