+<PRE>El mi&#233;, 12-09-2012 a las 12:33 +0200, Damian Ivanov escribi&#243;:
+&gt;<i> Hi,
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> My name isDamian Ivanov. Xiao-Long Chen and me are the maintainers of
+</I>&gt;<i> unity desktop environment for openSUSE and Fedora, Xiao-Long
+</I>&gt;<i> additionally maintains
+</I>&gt;<i> also unity on Arch Linux. We use for building the packages the open
+</I>&gt;<i> build service <A HREF="https://build.opensuse.org/project/monitor?project=GNOME">https://build.opensuse.org/project/monitor?project=GNOME</A>
+</I>&gt;<i> %3AAyatana
+</I>&gt;<i> It actually builds install-able and usable packages for Fedora and
+</I>&gt;<i> openSUSE. This week we'll give an official announcement that unity
+</I>&gt;<i> works on openSUSE and will make a live CD available based on openSUSE
+</I>&gt;<i> with unity. We would also like to see Mageia running unity, but this
+</I>&gt;<i> would not be done by us ( I am mainly working on openSUSE, Xiao-Long
+</I>&gt;<i> is working on Fedora and openSUSE). But I offer my help, if you want
+</I>&gt;<i> to do it also with obs on GNOME:Ayatana. At the moment the structure
+</I>&gt;<i> of a package is as follows:
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> =&gt; Package
+</I>&gt;<i> ===&gt; package.tar.gz
+</I>&gt;<i> ===&gt; %name-Fedora_17.spec
+</I>&gt;<i> ======&gt; Fedora-123.patch
+</I>&gt;<i> ======&gt; Fedora-456.patch
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> ===&gt; %name.spec (could be also %name-openSUSE_%version.spec)
+</I>&gt;<i> ======&gt; openSUSE-abc.patch
+</I>&gt;<i> ======&gt; openSUSE-def.patch
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> ===&gt; PKGBUILD (for Arch Linux builds, at the moment you won't see lots
+</I>&gt;<i> of them, Xiao-Long is converting his arch packages from aur to go to
+</I>&gt;<i> OBS at the moment)
+</I>&gt;<i> ======&gt; Arch-xyz.patch
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> There are users of Mageia who would love to see it in
+</I>&gt;<i> Mageia: <A HREF="https://forums.mageia.org/en/viewtopic.php?f=29&amp;t=130">https://forums.mageia.org/en/viewtopic.php?f=29&amp;t=130</A>
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> It would't need to be done that much to get it working on Mageia. The
+</I>&gt;<i> spec files for openSUSE and Fedora are quite similar and based on each
+</I>&gt;<i> other.
+</I>&gt;<i> I experimented with the Mandriva backend to package myself unity for
+</I>&gt;<i> Mandriva and/or Mageia too, but the package naming are way different
+</I>&gt;<i> from the ones of SUSE and Fedora which are quite similar. It would
+</I>&gt;<i> need to be done for every package in GNOME:Ayatana to copy a spec file
+</I>&gt;<i> from suse or fedora as %name-Mageia_%Mageia_ver.spec and adjust the
+</I>&gt;<i> BuildRequires, Requires and the naming. Additionally it would be
+</I>&gt;<i> needed for packages that are only packaged with patches to add the
+</I>&gt;<i> Mageia sources and add the Mageia Patches to apply.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> At the moment it is worked on the Mageia OBS backend, when it is
+</I>&gt;<i> fixed, is there someone here interested in adjusting the spec files to
+</I>&gt;<i> Mageia?
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Best regards,
+</I>&gt;<i> Damian Ivanov
+</I>
+If I don't misremember, unity needs some unofficial patches to be
+applied to gtk+/glib and other libs, how have you worked with that
+problem?
+
+Thanks for the info :)
