+repos but for those patent-related packages they have &quot;packman&quot; which is quite
+similar to Mandriva's plf.
+In the OpenSuSE-BuildService you can build Mandriva packages but only if they
+have no dependencies outside main, because not even contrib is there...
+
+And didn't Debian have &quot;non-US&quot; repositories?
