Markus,
Nelson, as someone who canstantly bitches, how bad anything SUSE-related is and how much better RHEL is, your arrogant tone is definitely misplaced. All I did was to file a sober bug report. No bad feelings or anything, simply pointing out that *untested* snapshots of anything do not belong in the main stable repo of openSUSE. As always, you turn that sober topic into a bitchfest.
Furthermore, if you aren't a part of the solution, then you are a part of the problem!
Wow, strong words. You obviously haven't read the bug report thread where I helped to identify where and how to get the latest stable release.
And maybe you should thank Raymond for the nice job he's doing because it's really added value to openSUSE that we have Chromium available in the distro and not in some obscure repository.
You're missing the point. As always. Unstable and untested snapshots of anything do not belong in the main, stable openSUSE repo. That's a sober, unemotional analysis.
and it is up to each dsitribution to decide what they want to ship. For openSUSE 12.1 it is too late to change anything here as that this would mean that existing users might experience loss-of-data as that their profiles are not compatible with lower versions of Chromium.
So you are saying that removing Chromium from openSUSE would reduce the risks of loosing data? One question for you, have you ever readed a free software friendly license? You know what I'm talking right ?
You are answering to Raymond's mail as if that paragraph was written by me. Oops, you just bitched against Raymond.
Markus, I think what you meant was:
No, what I meat was: Nelson, you are turning every unemotional, sober discussion into a series of bitching and blaming -- just as you a few line ago bitched against Raymond that he's incapable of reading FOSS licenses. (Not that this has anything to do with the topic at hand...) Until the release of 12.1 Chromium flew under the rader, mostly because it was in Contrib before and not the main repo. The question was and still is: Do untested weekly snapshots of software belong into openSUSE's stable, tested main repository? If yes: Why stop at Chromium? Why not ship random weekly git snapshots of KDE SC as regular updates to users? That are general questions. And when Chromium snapshots are explicitly allowed, it's a precedent for any software. The whole distinction between Factory and openSUSE Release breaks down.
