The OBS_Server pattern does not exist in v2.8 and v2.9

[tvkit]

Documentation should be updated to reflect the absence of the OBS_Server pattern in releases after v2.7.

In our environment, we minted a new Leap 42.3 instance on a SLES 12.4 hypervisor. To get things rolling, the following packages were manually installed:

zypper in obs-server
zypper in osc
zypper in obs-api

then the following script was run to setup OBS

/usr/lib/obs/server/setup-appliance.sh

The service was then available at

https://<host>/

There may be a better package installation sequence, but I couldn't find any docs on that.

Is there a particular piece of documentation where you have seen this?

[tvkit]

The following instructions live @ https://openbuildservice.org/download/other/

zypper ar -f http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/OBS:/Server:/2.9/openSUSE_42.3/OBS:Server:2.9.repo

zypper in -t pattern OBS_Server

And the local README.md references the older build v2.7 which provides the pattern, but it's two revs behind.

We need to take care of this for 2.10.

Hm, I just gave a shot and added it to 2.9 https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/OBS:Server:2.9/_pattern

@tvkit can you try it?

osc api '/source/OBS:Server:2.9/_pattern'

<directory name="_pattern" rev="1" vrev="" srcmd5="55f7064dfbf77cc84ab7163760af1c0d">
  <entry name="OBS_Server" md5="ba104672ed2f593a5aa7402f87f66ce9" size="975" mtime="1561985125" />
</directory>

as side note, we had it already in the OBS:Server:Unstable project

[tvkit]

@vpereira will be setting up a new VM to test. I'll get to it as soon as possible.

This is resolved now, 2.10 and unstable even moved over to package based patterns
