Dear hackers,
you are all admins of your own workstations, I believe. Have you ever wondered what YaST did to your system? Or even what *you* did to your system a week or a month ago?
Please have a look at your y2log now: sudo less /var/log/YaST2/y2log The information is (mostly) there, but it is buried in piles and heaps of debugging information.
So yes, as if you did not have enough features to implement already, I am asking you for more. But the users will love it.
Please take one (or all) of your modules and put in log messages using the API below. Presumably they are already there, using y2milestone.
ALog stands for Admin's log, to remind you who the reader is.
ALog::Item("/etc/ntp.conf: added 'server ntp.example.org'") ALog::Item("enabled /etd/init.d/ntp") ALog::Item("started /etd/init.d/ntp")
ALog::CommitPopup() will lead to ALog::Note("set up ntp from local server")
Isn't this what the loglevel 6 (E_USR) was intended for? An absract of changes done to the system which is also loged into a separate file. -- cu, Michael Andres +------------------------------------------------------------------+ Key fingerprint = 2DFA 5D73 18B1 E7EF A862 27AC 3FB8 9E3A 27C6 B0E4 +------------------------------------------------------------------+ Michael Andres YaST Development ma@novell.com SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nuernberg) Maxfeldstrasse 5, D-90409 Nuernberg, Germany, ++49 (0)911 - 740 53-0 +------------------------------------------------------------------+ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: yast-devel+help@opensuse.org
