Hi,

I was trying to create a openSUSE GNOME based distro with a custom software
added. However, the basic templates available in SUSE Studio seem to not have
a "GNOME fully loaded" option. I mean, a template that is similar to the list
of applications we install by default in a standard GNOME installation from a
openSUSE DVD.

There was a popular "GNOME Reloaded" template, but it didnt had even
OpenOffice/F-Spot installed by default. It lacks package parity with our
default DVD installation.

Are there any Studio projects that anyone is having already, that has all
packages added, which I can just clone ?

Is there any easy way (such as adding a pattern) which will give me all
packages added ?

Ideally we should ask the Studio team to have atleast Firefox and gedit
added by default to the GNOME template. They are more important and lighter
than some applications available by default (like Tomboy). May be we can
discuss this in the next openSUSE meeting ?

It's really just a bug in the GNOME Reloaded image: it doesn't contain
all the right patterns. That was mostly caused by a bug in Studio where
some patterns are not visible.


Okay. I will hang around in #susestudio tommorrow and will see if it should be
reported etc. and followup on it.

You can work around by instaling the packages that correspond to the
patterns (like patterns-openSUSE-gnome_utilities).


I searched the list of patterns available and there is no gnome_utilities
pattern. Nor does the list of patterns seem to have anything that will install
Firefox and gedit :(

For now, I am adding them manually. So, it is not a blocker for me. But a big
usability issue.
