Additionally from what i saw of what they were wanting to offer you would submit a tarball select what you wanted a rpm for and it would go and build it. that scares me as it is not a reproducible build. i.e. what voodoo did they do to get it built and to get you a spec file. Last i looked at a SuSE spec file i cried. it was extremely ugly. they have zero BuildRequires in there spec. they are relying on voodoo in their buildsys to bring in the necessary BuildRequires. Maybe i'm wrong, i have not been following the service just going from what i remember reading. Dennis
