https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=222507 Summary: path truncation in install presentations Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Beta 2 plus Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: SuSE Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: noes.to.anomalyst@xoxy.net QAContact: jsrain@novell.com During the installation process the paths are often too long and are truncated to fit, eliminating the most informing part. For example when loading the catalogs during a network installation. A function needs to be written or copied to reformat the string. I have seen several different ways to this type of formatting, which might be the most useful?
