Re: Docu: Need help to understand section about package creation

Show all headers | View raw

Hello again,

the problem persists.

I don't have the right information in the wiki. So I don't know how to
proceed with creating a package.

Can someone point me into the right direction please.

I have the repo on Salsa. But it is empty. And the commands
described in "Creating a new package" don't help me to fill it up.

Thanks in advance,
Christian Buhtz
