That's how the developers tell you to kiss off... it's novell code for "We know
our software is broken, but openSuSE isn't anything anymore other than a beta
platform for SLES and SLED so if you want anything fixed dump your 9 month old
install and move to the arguably less stable new release so you can help us
find more bugs faster for our paying customers. WONT FIX -- but thank you for
taking the time to track down the bugs in our code, you can pick up your
consolation prize at the door;-)

It's really kind of a kick in the nuts to your motivation to take your time to
gather all the data and run the tests to jump up and go file another bug report
isn't it? Been there.
