For somebody not used to (re)build rpms it may seems difficult, but it's really straightforward ; so, here are the rpms for you (opensuse's rpm rebuilt on F15)

http://c3i.bg/unsec/tlp/tlp-0.3.6-10.1.noarch.rpm
http://c3i.bg/unsec/tlp/tlp-rdw-0.3.6-10.1.noarch.rpm

it's just a matter of having a single "%_topdir /home/imitev/build/rpms" line in $HOME/.rpmmacros, having the "rpm-build" package installed and then doing rpmbuild --rebuild tlp-0.3.6-10.1.src.rpm

You should of course check the file hashes of my rpms against the original package...

on my laptop "tlp start" gives an error about upower but it's not needed.

Enabling the Fedora_15 build target for that package on the Open Build Service would have likely been even easier.

Interesting - never really had time to check how OBS worked.

But I'm not a packager of TLP, so how am I supposed to enable that ? I already spent 5 minutes looking around, which is way more than what it took to rebuild the src rpm locally (granted - my system is already setup and the rpm has no fancy build deps).

Or maybe I should actually login to the webinterface.. I dislike webpages setting cookies to expire after browser close (the latter being something that I regularly do given the static memory cost of firefox). http://picpaste.de/meta2-NwdRrfIP.png
