Hi there,
Currently, yast-gtk looks similar to GtkAssistant (old GnomeDruid) used by Evolution, the Gnome Add printer tool, etc. However, Yast doesn't act as a wizard sometimes, and just as a hybrid mosttimes. So, Jakub Steiner has proposed cleaning it up to this very simplistic form (to match the other Gnome tools from the control panel): http://www.alunos.dcc.fc.up.pt/~c0607045/trash/yast/face-mockup.svg
Hi Ricardo, er, an empty list box with [Help] and [Next] does not tell me much. Please elaborate a bit. Bear in mind that the inside of the dialogs is mostly determined by the YCP code, so any style change is difficult here. On the other hand, we are aware of the basic style differences between KDE and GNOME and plan to adapt the basic UI libraries (Popup.ycp Wizard.ycp) to accomodate eg. for the differing OK-Cancel button positioning.
Since we are at it, we might just as well think of the installer. I thought of this: http://www.alunos.dcc.fc.up.pt/~c0607045/trash/yast/installer-mockup.svg
It seems unlikely to have -gtk adopted as the installer any time soon (or late :)), but it might still be nice to have something more fancy that people could activate for their normal use.
About y2gtk for installation... I guess that in the YaST team we do not have anyone interested enough to push it ourselves, but I would be glad to help with answers and contacts if you or anyone wants to drive it.
These are SVG, very easy to edit on Inkscape. Notice we can provide optional faces.
Faces? You mean skins, themes?
