Repository URLs in the build service change rather too frequently. We also need to do something about substituting repositories with their new equivalents when upgrading between major versions.

There is also the community repositories module which contains a list of common repositories.

I had to remove the http:// for the server address to be correct... That's too hard...

Speaking from experience, one of the first concepts a new Linux user learns, is that of repositories because he/she must learn that in order to install software. Heaven forbid if a newbie (including myself) had to install from source. Don’t know if that will be a big problem.

If a user have installed a game trough the one-click, and then the repos is added. The user will now get a warning on every update, and will not know of the new repos. We need a one-click script for newbee-users to change the path of the repos.... This is a bad way of fixing it.

Unfortunately it too often becomes a vast a waste of time, especially when there's work to be done. It ironic when there's a LAN party to attend, but you're too busy playing nethack. :D Love it.

The games repositories have always been messy, having to subscribe to so many. This is a good move, thanks excellent. The games repositories have always been messy, having to subscribe to so many.
