<PRE>On mandriva forum [1] now was a post about OpenSuSE build system can package 
rpm so they work on different Linux distributions.

<A HREF="http://en.opensuse.org/Build_Service/cross_distribution_package_how_to">http://en.opensuse.org/Build_Service/cross_distribution_package_how_to</A>

&quot;The Build Service can reliably package rpms for not only openSUSE, but also 
recent SLES, CentOS, Fedora, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Ubuntu, Debian and 
Mandriva distributions.&quot;

It may not need much more work?

Benefit is that maybe more work could be shared between distributions.

And if other dists could use Mageia packages, it is a way to draw attention ;)

But maybe it slows other progress such as future move to rpm5, general 
installation and build system development?
