Request: Novell Packages

I've had a hankering to install the Novell Client for Linux (http://www.novell.com/products/clients/ … rview.html) and Novell Groupwise Client (I'm having trouble finding the website).

Novell packages the software specifically for SUSE Linux, in a RPM-based format (I think).  It's all precompiled; I don't know of any source code being available.

Novell does require registration to download the packages, so I will send the packages to anyone who requests them,  Just PM me.

These are two very nice packages, and would be welcomed by anyone using Arch on a large network.

upload the PKGBUILDs to the AUR so that people who want them can get them themselves

Sorry, I meant to request the packages; not offer them.

My bad for not being more clear.  :?

Looks like license problems with the novell client

Note:The Novell Client for Linux is currently an add-on feature to Novell Linux Desktop. In the future, it will ship with the desktop. Novell Linux Desktop users and Open Enterprise Server users are entitled to the Novell Client for Linux.

Well, could somebody at least help me write a pkgbuild for my own use?
