This should have been posted sooner, but it's been pretty busy
Well it was on the cards for a while, Hula has now been forked and the new project is Bongo.  The descision was made on the 13th of Jan in IRC, and progress has been pretty swift.  We have moved from NovellForge to GNA! and IRC from gimp.net to oftc.net.  As was the case with Hula all help would be appreciated.

To get involved you can pop onto IRC #bongo on irc.oftp.net or the mailing lists.  I will be creating RPMs for the project pretty soon, so when they're done I'll let it be known.

Well I've finally pulled a finger out and got some RPMs for Bongo out
I have expanded the distros built by the openSUSE Build Service in comparison to what I had for Hula. The distros that I am building for via the service are:

• Fedora Core 4
  
• Fedora Core 5
  
• Mandriva 2006
  
• openSUSE Factory
  
• openSUSE 10.2
  
• SUSE 10.1
  
• SUSE 10.0
  
• SUSE 9.3
  
• SUSE Linux Enterprise 10
  
• SUSE Linux Enterprise 9

All packages are signed with the following key.

To get the packages please see here and select the distro of your choice. You can configure your package manager to get the latest package automatically by using the "home:FunkyPenguin.repo" file.
Please let me know if you have any issues, also be a bit patient while the packages get built.

Further to my earlier post, Lance asked how to add the repository to his available list.. This is just a simple guide without pretty pictures, the are more detailed and prettier instructions on the openSUSE Wiki. I will endeavour to get a better guide up, it will probably be on the wiki rather than here.

From the command line (as root):

rug service-add http://software.opensuse.org/download/home:/FunkyPenguin/[YourDistro] --type=ZYPP "FunkyPenguin-Bongo" or [whatever you would like to call it]

In YaST:
Select Software > Installation Source > Add > HTTP
For Server Name put
software.opensuse.org/
For Directory put
download/home:/FunkyPenguin/[YourDistro]

From ZEN Updater:
Select Configure > Add Service > Select either ZYPP or Auto detect for the Service Type. Enter the following for the Service URI: http://software.opensuse.org/download/home:/FunkyPenguin/[YourDistro]. Enter FunkyPenguin-Bongo or [whatever you would like to call it] for the Service Name.

Or you could use SMART and the .repo file and open the file from within SMART or use one of the above options from within SMART.

If anyone uses any of the other package managers, please let me know how to use it with the repo.

Not something I like to advertise, but hey I'm not infallible

Unfortunately there are some issues with some distros This is partly to do with autotools, hopefully a fix will be implemented soon. So don't harass me.
The packages available from the Build Service are:

• Fedora Core 5 - x86 only
  
• SUSE Linux Enterprise 10 - x86 and x86_64
  
• SUSE 10.1 - x86 and x86_64
  
• openSUSE 10.2 - x86 and x86_64
  

I will hopefully have a build for the following shortly:

• Mandriva 2007 - x86 only
  
• CentOS / RHEL 4 - x86 only
  
• Fedora Core 6 - x86 only
  

I'll advertise when the packages are done, and where they are hosted.
