How to setup an Build Service locally for testing

The software driving the openSUSE Build Service (OBS) is available for different distributions. Take the packages suitable for your distribution of choice hosted at the openSUSE Build Service instance:

• 1.7.x (current version)
• 1.8 ('MeeGo' release)

For the distributions mentioned below we provide setup-howtos:

• OBS 1.7 on openSUSE 11.2
• OBS 1.8 on openSUSE 11.2

A good source of documentation is the upstream project wiki hosted at http://wiki.opensuse.org/Portal:Build_Service

You can review a bare-metal to operational setup at the maemo.org and MeeGo community OBS setup notes

Advanced setup topics
