Perhaps not, but Linux and openSUSE are not supposed to be just for the technically proficient.
I think they need to be in a modern Linux distro, its just that they have to be pretty bug free (only narrow HW issues, etc.) to be ready for prime time.
I think that, for users that don't want them they should also be removable without breaking software that doesn't strictly require it. Because of that, an RPM dependency is not appropriate. A less strict relationship like APT's "Recommends" or "Suggests" is more appropriate.
The latest RPM has both of that. It will be needed some time to go trough packages and switch them to use new options. The best way, as usually is, to the report problems, so that the most annoying stuff is solved immediately. -- Regards, Rajko -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
