That's what I've been looking for. Access to other distro patches is great for seeing what issues might be around with some package. Thanks!
<shameless-musing>Now if I only could find the OpenSuSE equivalent as well...no luck so far.</shameless-musing>

Well, for the next release, you have https://build.opensuse.org/project/show?project=openSUSE%...
From there, you can drive down into the packages, just picking something random, you have https://build.opensuse.org/package/files?package=perl-JSO... where you can see the spec file, changelog, source, and diffs.

A friend of mine wrote this website to search for packages on rpm-based distribution :
http://sophie.zarb.org/sources
That's a big postgresql db with all metadata on binary and sources rpms, and that include patch ( and patch contents most of the time ). But we didn't integrate opensuse source rpm for the moment, so this would not be useful for your usecase.

That actually looks quite useful. I keep a bunch of search shortcuts around for poking in other distro packages to look for patches, missing build options, and other things. I was just never able to find anything for OpenSuSE nor the git repositories for Debian. Having a one-stop-shop for such things would be nice. Also, a website which aggregated what patches for a given package were floating around in different distributions would be great. A translation database between distro package names would likely be needed and version tables to compare current versions in different distributions would also be a useful tool. Most likely not an easy problem however with the different practices of each distribution.

Something like this : http://www.enricozini.org/2011/debian/distromatch-deploy/
( for matching package name )
