I realized that OBS would probably be the better choice at the moment. 
Gambas should not only offer packages, but also the corresponding 
repositories that can be integrated into the respective system - the 
user should not be expected to download and install tens of packages 
individually, but should do this using zypper, rpm, yum, apt, pacman, 
... instead.
