The dialogs prevent setting the system time even though they have absolutely nothing to do with it.
I also don't have a clue how these progress dialogs can prevent setting system time ;-) But they are there for a reason - we need to check whether xntp package is installable so that user is not allowed to choose 'synchronize with NTP server' method of setting the time if (s)he cannot install xntp package (with ntpdate) later on. So, this is partially my fault that in ntp-client_proposal, I check for availability of xntp unconditionally (even if it is already installed), therefore these annoying popups appear each time user wants to change the time. You can test yast2-ntp-client 2.16.0 as soon as it comes up in Factory tree and see if it is any better -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

annoying sequence of repository update dialogs from yast …
Well, I think it would be good, if all components of yast [1] would ask before this repo-update, if user wants to do it or wants to use the last known state, cause it's really ennoying, waiting for this long-during repository-update in worst case several times a day. A second problem is, that the opensuse-online-updater looks like the usual yast-installer but sorts the rpms by default in the group "patches" which is only clear. But I miss the filter "patches" in the usual yast-installer! Please include/provide there too. [1] as /sbin/yast2 online_update, yast2 - software - installation, … -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Please file a new bug (enhancement) for such request

Again, please file a new bug (enhancement) for that issue, it has nothing to do with ntp-client or timezone dialog (which this bug is about) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
