[Kolab-devel] Kolab on RaspberryPi

[Andreas Cordes]

Hi Paul


yes I was using the packages from the OBS without any modification.


Of course I could crosscompile on a more powerful system but in the past 
I had lot's of troubles when I try to crosscompile packages (long time 
ago for the NSLU-2).

So waiting half a day for all the packages to compile cleanly is ok. :-)

I'm curious how often these packages would be downloaded and how (via 
APT or something different :-))

greets
