Hi all,
Question about factory repos… was just checking factory installation age and noticed that i only “need” two repos to run factory and those are:
I mean at this moment they contain bash and flash updates, so i guess - very useful, but then why there is no mention of them on official wiki page as required repositories…
can someone elaborate, please?

The “official” factory repos are whatever the snapshot sets up for you, not what the wiki page says
Factory does not normally use the update repo. I don’t remember seeing anything there for years but
a fake package intended to test that update works.
But this time the devs were forced to actually use it, because factory build has been stuck for
weeks on a problem, and they absolutely needed to get bash updated, because of /that/ huge security
problem.

thnx, that explains it… i thought it was very “suspicious” that updates repo had only bash update… i don’t know if devs will ever use it again, bit i will keep those repos just in case.
