Encouraged by
this flattering comment, I went through my full
collection of SUSE RPMs, picked the ones worth updating to the latest versions and submitted them to
my package repository at the
openSUSE build service now:
- bchunk 1.2.0 - A CD image format converter from .bin/.cue to .iso/.cdr/.wav.
- kvdr 0.64 - A KDE Front-End for VDR (Video Disk Recorder)
- samefile 2.12 - Find identical files on your file system
- rss-glx 0.8.1 - Really Slick Screensavers
- rzip 2.1 - A large-file compression program
I hope none of these are already maintained somewhere else, this is something I still haven't figured out - how can I search the existing projects for certain packages?
The Build Service totally rocks, especially since it can be conveniently used from the command line as well. I submitted my first two packages via the web frontend, but have now switched to using the osc command line tool exclusively. Kudos to the openSUSE Build Service Team, building packages on other platforms has never been that easy!
