[opensuse-autoinstall] Community repository for autoyast?
Hello, as I noticed from a problem with autoyast and printer configuration there has been a problem with autoyast/yast2-printer in OpenSUSE 11.1: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=464364 I know that this problem was not in autoyast itself, but there surely was and will be something similiar from time to time :-) Is there a community repository or something similar for autoyast available for getting updates of this module quickly without the need of waiting for the next OpenSUSE release? By the way: Great piece of software - thanks! Slowly I get things working here ;-) Regards, Ivan -- IT-Administration AStA TU Darmstadt Hochschulstr. 1 64289 Darmstadt University of Technology Darmstadt Tel. +49-6151-162117 Fax. +49-6151-166026 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+help@opensuse.org

no, unfortunately there is no repository for all fixes. If the fix was not provided as an official online update, you can't get it. Simply using the version for 11.2 from "factory" can lead to problems. For the autoyast core it's even more complicate. The autoyast core can not be fixed via RPM because when the problem occurs, there is no system with RPM database so I have to provide driverupdate files but I only do that for critical bugs - thank god is was not necessary since a few releases.
By the way: Great piece of software - thanks!
