Hi,

Now that the buildservice has got their 1-Click install, things are changed.
Earlier i noticed that the service entries in the right-click menu in
konqueror,did/do not run the desired option.
But they are still there, why is that than?

Personaly i find these options very comfortable, if they work.
Finding a downloaded rpm with the mouse is easier than in cli (you have
to know the exact name)
Have found it imediate action can be taken: Right click actions: install
with: whatever pkgmngr you want: smart. zypper, Yast2.
iac yast does not use the pointed rpm, but goes online to get one that
is allready installed, and installs it again.
I think this is kind of stupid behaviour.
If it looks, it must see that the version it wants to install, allready
is installed, and say that.
But the most stupid i find that it cannot install the rpm i pointed.

Because the konqueror menus are used very frequent, it is obvious that
options presented there should work, otherwise they should be removed.

These things disturb me quite a while now, because it is realy time
robbing to follow these options to get nowhere.
Also my patience is tested very seriously that way.

What i tell here is objective experience, as a normal user experiences,
if he/she wants to something as installing a package to replace one that
does not work...

Maybe a thing to consider sometime.. ;-)
