Feature added by: Francesco Noacco (FireLink) Feature #314607, revision 1 Title: formatting openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Mandatory Requested by: Francesco Noacco (firelink) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Can format and save data in the partitions stored in any fs and not just fat32 (after installation). Use Case: I solved it with "disk manager" Debian testing (3.0.2 by Red Hat, 2009) In the formatting parameters allows disk usage by users other than root. And to think that I had just complained because the utility from a new disc without mbr creates one that is not compatible with other distributions (gparted from an alert message). Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: Operations should be for everyone. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/314607

[New: openFATE 315592] retire /etc/ssl/certs as r/w for admins
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 11 Jul '18

Feature added by: Ludwig Nussel (lnussel) Feature #315592, revision 1 Title: retire /etc/ssl/certs as r/w for admins Requested by: Ludwig Nussel (lnussel) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Since the introduction of update-ca-certificates in openSUSE 11.2 /etc/ssl/certs has been an automatically managed location for SSL certificates. Adminstrators are no longer meant to put their own files there but instead have update-ca-certificates install symlinks to the actual files there. Having scripts regularly mess with /etc is ugly. Therefore placing individual symlinks in /etc/ssl/certs needs to be retired. /etc/ssl/certs should point to a location in /var instead. This could either be done with a symlink or with a bind mount. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/315592

[New: openFATE 322297] Yast2 working in wayland

Feature added by: Andreas Winter (netzheimer) Feature #322297, revision 1 Title: Yast2 working in wayland openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Andreas Winter (netzheimer) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Wayland is coming with big steps. First distributions (eg fedora) already use it as default. Gnome should be already stable with it, Plasmas support is getting better and better. Some other DE already support it out of the box. Wayland is a lot more secure than Xserver and it is the future. I think it is time to bring Yast2's support for this. At the moment a user who wants to run wayland has just 2 solutions: - Running yast in textmode (which is not a solution for non-geek users) - Switch to another distribution, which offers better support -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/322297

[New: openFATE 314706] New default theme

Feature added by: Sharque uddin Ahmed Farooqui (safknw) Feature #314706, revision 1 Title: New default theme openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Sharque uddin Ahmed Farooqui (safknw) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Currently OpenSuse comes this slightly modified default theme from DE. For example KDE default theme is not very different from vanilla KDE default theme. So does not distinctive feeling. I believe having a separate for DE will be it much better feeling to end user also it provide unique look and feel to user. We can have a look at ROSA as case. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/314706

[New: openFATE 324891] fix excessive rebuilding in transitive mode

Feature added by: Ludwig Nussel (lnussel) Feature #324891, revision 1 Title: fix excessive rebuilding in transitive mode Buildservice: New Priority Requester: Mandatory Requested by: Ludwig Nussel (lnussel) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Following up on https://github.com/openSUSE/open-build-service/issues/3749 For packages in a build cycle obs normally stops the rebuilding at some point when all packages have been built with all others. From observations when building distributions that however doesn't work if build-compare is enabled. When starting Leap 42.3 in December 2016 I from scratch I could show that gcc was built 101 times. So as workaround we always have to be careful to either switch rebuild mode to direct or disable build compare when checking in base packages. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/324891
