SUSE Labs Conference 2018 - Building and applying temporary fixes for SLES and openSUSE
Channel: SUSE Labs
Date: 2018-09-19

I'd like to provide a short view behind the scenes of SUSE L3 work with a focus on temporary fixes.

* How and when to build PTFs, DUDs, and kISOs?
* How to apply these?
* When does our workflow differ from the maintainer workflow?
* Where are the pitfalls?
* What causes temporary fixes to become one-off modifications (no maintenance update for this)?

Especially DUDs and kISOs are rarely created and tend to cause mistakes.

As bugs also hit me on openSUSE and I need temporary fixes for myself, I'd like to show my approach and to discuss the following question:

* How to do the same for openSUSE?
