I just wanted to test the SLES 11 guest agent package, but there's only
a source rpm available, no binary rpm. According to the build log on
build.opensuse.org only the source rpm was created.


Also in build.log I see the following errors:

[   73s] error: Recursion depth(17) greater than max(16)

[   73s] error: line 104:     # 
[   73s]         test -n "$FIRST_ARG" || FIRST_ARG=$1 
[   73s]         if test "$FIRST_ARG" = "0" ; then 
[   73s] 	   test -f /etc/sysconfig/services && . /etc/sysconfig/services 
[   73s]            if test "$YAST_IS_RUNNING" != "instsys" -a "$DISABLE_STOP_ON_REMOVAL" != yes ; then 
[   73s]               for service in
