Maybe I did not make my point succinctly enough. The technical solution here is not the point ...
Starting as a young dev engineer in TV broadcasting aeons ago, there was often the comment from the engineer to a colleague, about the video producers and sound techs, "I know how it works best, they get what I can design best". This is mostly the incompetent, but technically genial, engineer that whats to decide what is best for the user.
Please keep in mind: I don't have anythibng to do with the YaST development. I'm a community user like you're.
Over the years with the right amount of maturity, this way of 'believing' is forced to change. Users just use something else ... simple. Pity. Sigh.
Superb! What're you trying to achieve by this? Do you think anyone's blood preasure gets higher? As written before: This issue is a non issue to me. I'm able to work with the YaST package manager front end as it is. But it never was or is a question to convince me. You have to win the community. And that happens at https://features.openSUSE.org/ So where is the feature request you filed? If you all count this feature that important for openSUSE why don't you go the way we have to go to convince the YaST developers? "Sorry, I don't have the time." is what we have seen before in this thread and what I expect as answer to this mail too. I hope anyone else is able to see the circular type of the argumentation. At https://features.openSUSE.org people can vote. Developers and users can add their comments. But you guys expect others are doing stuff you like to see happening. Sorry, following this approach must fail. Lars -- Lars Müller [ˈlaː(r)z ˈmʏlɐ] Samba Team SUSE Linux, Maxfeldstraße 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany
