Can you actually build for Arch with this? I can't see an option for this, (thinking it might be a typo of yours). In addition, I'm trying to figure out how it works, what form do you need to upload the package as?
- hennevogel 12y agoYes you can. And for debian, ubuntu, fedora, RHEL, SLES, CentOS, UCS. Of course all of them in multiple versions and in X86, X86_64, ARM, s390, PPC. Have a look here https://build.opensuse.org/project/add_repository_from_default_list/home:hennevogel https://build.opensuse.org/project/add_repository_from_defau... for a (shortened) list of popular distros the OBS supports.
- mijoharas 12y agoThanks, I was trying to find a list like that, I guess my searching let me down.
- milliams 12y agoYes you can. You just need a tarball and a PKGBUILD file. There's one downside in that in the official Arch repos, the sourcecode is just defined as a download link to the tarball but since the OBS builder can't access the internet (for security I guess) you have to provide a tarball yourself. The Build Service does however provide hooks for automatically downloading tarballs or grabbing code from version control systems.
