Guess not, but of course I haven't personally tried it to see if there's an
SLES update patch. I assume the tester in question was up to date though.

I'm trying to stay consistent never requring anything that isn't part of the
OS' standard package repositories for anything I provide. That way people
can take the responsibility to do custom SRPM rebuilds if they're ok using
non-standard options or packages, and it's not like that's too difficult.

What I can do is leave the SLES 10 repo in place but with only the
dependencies built and just leave the SP out (unless this gets fixed). That
way it's just one SRPM rebuild for that OS.
