Then you should become familiar with building an application using OBS but outside the Mer repository. This is explained in detail in [[/Application Building|Application Building]] which takes you through an example application.

This is NOT a Mer development image like Mer VMDK is.

== Mer Source ==

Currently you cannot <code>apt-get source</code> for Mer.

Our approach requires you to get a Novell account and is similar to the one in HHGTTG:
 
-
 
-
<blockquote>
 
-
"`...You hadn't exactly gone out of your way to call attention to them had you? I mean like actually telling anyone or anything.'<br>
 
-
`But the plans were on display...'<br>
 
-
`On display? I eventually had to go down to the cellar to find them.'<br>
 
-
`That's the display department.'<br>
 
-
`With a torch.'<br>
 
-
`Ah, well the lights had probably gone.'<br>
 
-
`So had the stairs.'<br>
 
-
`But look you found the notice didn't you?'<br>
 
-
`Yes,' said Arthur, `yes I did. It was on display in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying "Beware of The Leopard".'"
 
-
</blockquote>

-
But slightly simpler...
 
-
Nb... the fix is trivial and simply requires you to modify the GPL licensed OBS system to publish debian style source distros ... patches accepted.
