Stephan while I appreciate I eventually did some factory updates:
1. Before that, while on all RC1 revisions, during the configuration of the
update where the user submits info and sets up repos, the window crashed /
vanished.
That seems pretty clear to me to be a RC1 issue that prevents people from
having a satisfactory update experience. People expect it to "just work" and
especially not have failure for no apparent reason.
2. When a user inevitably tries to do the upgrade again, they are unnecessarily
put through the submit info and choose repos a second time when they have
already done so before the first crash.
This just adds to the negative user experience. This is all on RC1
configuration.
3. The information now shown on the second time around for what repos are
enabled is in error. No repos are shown as enabled when in fact the user added
repos the first time around before the updater crashed.
So now the already frustrated user see's a further problem that the actual
repos that are enabled are not correctly shown to the user. Again this is all
on RC1 code.
4. As to the kdesu error with updates totally failing to be applied, I do
appreciate two of the repos were for factory, but I would like to point out
that I also had the opensuse 11 update repo there as well. Im not sure which
updates came from what repos, but my main point here with issue #4 is that I
had not actually received any updates from any repos and all code was still at
RC1.
I will help with this in any way I can, and I ask that you please not dismiss
it without your full consideration. Frankly I am not convinced that the factory
repo can explain all these issues and I suspect there is deeper issues.
