I’m using it for “open-simulator(.org)” which is pretty heavy :wink:

PostgreSQL 9.3 is available from; http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/server:/database:/postgresql/openSUSE_13.1/

It’s a normal build service repository and not “factory”.

[size=2]so “Build service” repositories are not considered “unstable”? its just a way to build packages from source for different linux repo’s …
according to Build Service Wiki: Open Build Service Portal …

The same people that are building your “stable” versions in the distribution are the ones who are building those in the ‘official’ (non-home) repositories (such as the database that I gave you). If you want “officially supported software”, you should buy SLES and use that - openSUSE is a community distribution.

For your information, I run an infrastructure that gets around a few billion (yeah, that’s a billion) hits per month using nginx and Varnish that I built myself. I guess that’s unstable because I host it in the build service? :wink:
