It is visible in KDE4 but not in GNOME. The reason is that /usr/share/mime/application/vnd.openofficeorg.extension.xml and /usr/share/mime/packages/freedesktop.org.xml include: --- cut --- <mime-type xmlns="http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/shared-mime-info" type="application/vnd.openofficeorg.extension">  <comment xml:lang="be@latin">Pašyreńnie OpenOffice.org</comment> <comment xml:lang="ca">extensió d'OpenOffice.org</comment> [...] <generic-icon name="x-office-document"/> --- cut --- and GNOME prefers this generic icon over the MIME-specific one. When I remove the generic-icon tag and regenerate the MIME database using "/usr/bin/update-mime-database /usr/share/mime", it starts to work. Is this a bug or feature? I think that it should show MIME specific icon when available. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

All dependencies are fulfilled. There are several ways in which gimp may open a URI (gvfs, gnome-vfs, libcurl, wget). The method it actually uses is set by compile time options. I guess that the prerequisites for a working "open location" function are currently not met by the software management system of opensuse 11.1 (missing package, daemon not started, etc.). In any case, the compile time options for the gimp package should be chosen in such a way that the "open location" function does not depend on the type of the user's desktop environment. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. start gimp without any arguments on the command line. 2. from the empty image window select "File > Open Location" and enter the URI http://www.gimpbook.com/origpix/ch1/pa201665.jpg 3. press "Open" Actual Results: An error message pops up: Opening 'http://www.gimpbook.com/origpix/ch1/pa201665.jpg' failed: Could not open 'http://www.gimpbook.com/origpix/ch1/pa201665.jpg' for reading: No such file or directory Expected Results: gimp should load the remote image and should show it in the image window. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

The upshot of this is that for panel sizes under 27 pixels, the whole icon is not shown and it's not clear what it is supposed to be. For panel sizes much larger than that (I don't know if anyone does that but they can), it's tiny in comparison to the panel and its button. The former is more significant, as more people start using Netbooks (and we promise Netbook support in 11.2), small panels are important as they release more desktop space for actual working to take place. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Problem is though that as soon as you press the windows key the main-menu shows up and interferes with gnome-do's interface. Since the main-menu showing up on pressing the win-key seems to be useful to those switching over from the other side, it might be reasonable to change gnome-do's keyboard shortcut. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Hold windows-key+space Actual Results: Main-menu appears (and also possible gnome-do hidden behind it) Expected Results: gnome-do/main-menu should not have a conflicting shortcut button -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

This is too long, in my opinion and hurts the responsiveness of the menu badly. Either the menu should stop registering stuff from CD/DVD or it should cache theses entries suitably so that clicking on the computer icon does not require the cd/dvd drive to be spun-up. If I recall correctly, this did not occur with 11.0 or 11.1. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Open files from CD/DVD 2.Close the file(s) and let the CD/DVD spin-down 3.Click on computer button in gnome-panel Actual Results: The CD/DVD drive starts spinning up, the menu itself appears after ~5 secs.

However the vast majority of the time that a user opens the SLAB they're going to be wanting to launch an application. So the menu should default to opening on the Applications tab every time it's opened. Better still, there should be a preference to set whether to always open on the Applications tab or whether to keep the current behaviour. At the very least the menu should default to Applications the first time it's opened after log in because it's very unintuitive it it opens to Places or Documents the first time it's opened. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open SLAB 2. Click on Places tab 3. Close SLAB. 4 .Open SLAB. Actual Results: Places tab is still open.

Both accounts, according to folder properties and their respective web interfaces, are about 1 GB in size. I have emptied the trash and compacted folders numerous times on both of them. Currently, on disk, my gmail account takes up 7.1 GB. My imap.suse.de account takes up 1.8G. The search sqlite database takes up another 2.9 GB. That is *12 GB* just for Thunderbird! Part of this is due to Thunderbird not recognizing that the [Gmail] folder duplicates things. I'm not sure how to account for that, but even if it counts messages twice - that's still a huge waste. I have a 30 GB /home file system, which historically has been well more than enough space for normal use, an openSUSE ISO image, and several expanded and built kernel trees. With openSUSE 11.2, I've had to remove the ISO image as well as most of the trees, *just* to accommodate Thunderbird. Thunderbird is routinely running my file system out of space, corrupting its own indexes, and today it even corrupted my Address Book for which it had saved no recent backup. Bart Whitely noted in bug #543942 that removing the cached files and having it re-download the messages shrunk his caches by a factor of 100. I did eliminate my "All Mail" folder from being downloaded, but downloading all the messages still only added up to about 218MB. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=542527 Summary: bogus circular link warnings / breakage ... Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE.org Version: unspecified Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Critical Priority: P5 - None Component: BuildService AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: mmeeks(a)novell.com QAContact: adrian(a)novell.com Found By: --- in Moblin:Factory we have kernel-source (which is an actual package with real source inside it and no _link file), and we have kernel-default - which has a single link file: <link package="kernel-source" cicount="copy"/> Unfortunately kernel-default claims it cannot build, the build status page says: Rebuild i586 broken circular package link The source expands just fine using the console / osc tool: $ osc up At revision 5. $ cat _link <link package="kernel-source" cicount="copy"/> $ osc up -e Expanding to rev aca1ce222bc5950f94bcb14663700d50 D _link A README.KSYMS A README.SUSE A arch-symbols .. So - looks like an obs regression - it would be good to fix so we can build kernels again. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

[Bug 517550] New: Newer packages may hav lower version numbers

http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=517550 Summary: Newer packages may hav lower version numbers Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE.org Version: unspecified Platform: Other OS/Version: SuSE Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: BuildService AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: squan(a)web.de QAContact: adrian(a)novell.com Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/4.2; Linux) KHTML/4.2.90 (like Gecko) SUSE There is an inconsisteny in the package numbering scheme, at least in factory packages: It happens that newer packages have lower version numbers then packages published earlier. In opensSUSE milestone 3 at least 50 kde4 packages and other packages like e.g libusb, python-doc and libqscintilla are affected. E.g. I'm currently running pre milestone 3 kde4-akonadi-4.2.90-130.2 and the milestone 3 package is versioned with kde4-akonadi-4.2.90-2.3. Yast will not offer these new packages for upgrade (and I suppose zypper will not as well). Possibly this will compromise package dependency resolution. Thus chances are high that a system upgrade will result in a mix of pre and post milestone packages. I suspect that this could result in an installation with incompatible packages. If so it would also result in unreproducable (and worthless) bug reports. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install openSUSE factory 2. Wait a few days 3. Upgrade Actual Results: Major features may be broken -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
