In installer (installation proposal overview) -> Ladislav 2. In packager (And it might need to store the settings at /etc/sysconfig/yast2) This would require change in both Qt and ncurses interfaces as they both implement their UI interfaces. -> Martin / Gabi Although it's a good idea, it's a new feature request. Ladislav, Martin: What do you think of this feature? Do you want to a feature request in FATE? I guess it might take some time... Olaf, what exactly is your use case? Could you describe what exactly do you want to achieve? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Olaf, what exactly is your use case? Could you describe what exactly do you want to achieve?

Dynamic repos such as Factory or TW will likely change while doing an install. If all packages to install/upgrade are downloaded in one go the window where repo changes can happen is reduced. I have a 100mbit uplink so the download itself is fast enough. But still the download/install/download/install steps will take some time. If people have slower connections and slower hardware the window where repo changes happen is larger. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Olaf, do you have any estimation how real the issue is? Have you run into it already?

Yes, once or twice while doing an upgrade to current Factory.

Regarding connection speed: The slower connection, the lower chance it is that such feature would prevent the situation to happen...

I think its not just the connection speed, also how fast a given package is installed. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
