Well, first of all let me remind that I was a package maintainer, and the issue with "do not know" how to handle huge packages were discussed several times. Xyne, as I said this is nothing personal with you (I can add to the list of huge maintainers: Sergej, Swiergot and many other TUs, but nexuiz was the package which finally made me upset since I was downloading by hours and the update wasn't finished just because nexuiz), and I know you are "new" in the crew and I thought you knew about the issues we had about "unpopular" and "lack of space" on the server , that's why I worried about a huge games on the repo, being honestly if you want to game it's ok, but games are not necessary to be on the repo, being honest. My proposal is not to take away these binaries in first case, my first option is to move huge games to another repo, why? as I said, games *are not necessary software*, and how will benefit a [games] repo to home repos?, easy!, I simply do not add [games] in the sync script and the script won't download it -assuming that the waste of disk space won't be a problem anymore of course-.. but syncing in the way that the script is actually doing I can't realize with "marking" packages for not download it. Of course I am talking about the situation with my home personal repo, which have been downloaded every week, every saturday with a 1024 kbps connection (And some other countries, and some other people have better and worst connections btw), but I guess it will save bandwidth on connections more powerful (like the repos that I administer) too, if these kind of huge games won't be added to repos.. (I know ooo is huge and texlive too, but ooo and texlive are necessary). About the games repository of Daenyth, I would like to say is a good option to add the games there, but this repo isn't official, I apologize if I hurt some feelings, but being honestly, I had to said how pised I was cause an irresponsability of upload a game > 250 MB geez.. Anyway, just for the record, I am trying to do a calling for maintainers with huge packages not necessary (like games), please please please, think in the bandwidth and disk space of some other people, =). -- Angel Velásquez angvp @ irc.freenode.net Linux Counter: #359909
