Re: [Fedora-packaging] OpenSuse / Fedora Packaging Compatibility?
Hi Ken,
More importantly, are there any examples of packages which currently
use
the same spec file (perhaps with platform conditional blocks) for both
distributions? We'd sure love to use them as an example ...
The OpenSuse build service is full of specs which are used for building both
packages. The main problems are due to different names for some packages I
think, but these are handled by if-else statements which automatically check
the target distribution.
I think for independent software providers the best way is to simply set up a
OpenSuse build service on your servers and build your packages there. It will
produce packages and native repositories for several distributions with not
too much overhead.
Regards,
Roland
