https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=384579 Summary: zypper should be able to download only Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Factory Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: libzypp AssignedTo: zypp-maintainers(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: cgoncalves(a)opensuse.org QAContact: dmacvicar(a)novell.com Found By: --- Sometimes users don't want to download and install packages at the same time because they just want to download and them install later. There are several reasons: - running on battery; - not the appropriate time to get their system under heavy resource usage; - or simply because they want to download everything first and install afterwards. So my request is if it would be possible to add a --download-only feature into update, upgrade, and install zypper commands. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=390526 Summary: yast2-gtk: During automatic installation, some dialog boxes have abort, others don't Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Factory Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: captain.magnus(a)opensuse.org QAContact: jsrain(a)novell.com Found By: --- Created an attachment (id=215337) --> (https://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=215337) Now Featuring... An abort button First, why do we have these really small and ugly dialog boxes information the user about "Detecting this" and "Detecting that"? Wouldn't it be better to have an icon row below the two status bars in the main window which are grayed out to start with, and as it progresses with hardware detection, light them up (Same as in the beginning of the installation). Anyway... During hardware detection, one dialog box stands out as it contains an abort button, whilst none of the others have it. It'd be nice to get some consistency. See attached screenshots. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I am impressed with ZMD's update reliability - however I am still of the opinion that ZMD having root authority is remove an entire installation. I feel this is an unacceptable internal risk. I feel that ZMD functions very well now in installing updates etc, however I feel that giving the user 2 click to remove the entire installation a totally unacceptable internal risk. I feel this should be removed. Q. Would there be any advantage into creating an authoritative user which is not root that ZMD could function correctly. Any application with permenent root authority concerns me -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
