While installation source management in RC1 is a definite improvement (like:
it actually works), there's a usability issue:
Whatever operation I do in YaST Installation Source, it takes a lot of time,
and there's no progress bar, no "please wait", no indication that it's not
stuck.
For example, after adding 2 sources from the internet and pressing "Finish",
it took 30+ minutes for the window to close.
I know that it must have been downloading repository metadata stuff from the
internet, but the average user Joe will be very confused.
Anyway, I suppose that this could be optimized later.
After you guys pull this release through, you'll be heroes. It has been
epic :-)
