Hi Vahis,

some very bright and all knowing light(s) at novell thought this through
for us already (to the fullest and absolutely correct extend). What fool
are you to question those decisions? Don't you see that ubuntu is the
way to go? It is by far and to utmost certainty the most usable and
easiest distribution and we have to do what they do. See bug
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=381420

Kind regards
Felix
