[Bug 616708] New: "perform installation" should report number/size of packages being "downloaded in advance" when that option is set

But, anyway, here goes: For personal reasons, I like to set the following option in /etc/zypp/zypp.conf: commit.downloadMode = DownloadInAdvance In this case, IMHO, the "perform installation" screen should have two progress bars, one showing how much of the current package is being downloaded, and one showing how many more packages are to be downloaded, then installed. As it is now, the "bottom" progress bar stays at 0% while downloading, giving no clue as to whether this will take ages or just a few seconds more... Too bad!

[Bug 616706] New: Yast Printer Connection Wizard requires ICMP echo to be open when adding a network printer when it should only require that the TCP port the printer is listening on be open.

http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=616706 http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=616706#c0 Summary: Yast Printer Connection Wizard requires ICMP echo to be open when adding a network printer when it should only require that the TCP port the printer is listening on be open. Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Final Platform: i586 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.2 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: chris(a)ia.gov QAContact: jsrain(a)novell.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.1.9) Gecko/20100317 SUSE/3.5.9-0.1.1 Firefox/3.5.9 When adding a printer via the Yast Printer Connection wizard and selecting TCP as the connection method, adding a printer fails even if the specified tcp port is open and reachable, if ICMP echo is not also allowed. ICMP echo should not be a requirement for adding a remote printer. A simple tcp ping on the specified port should be good enough, syn, syn/ack, ack. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Add a printer from Yast. 2.Choose the connection Wizard 3.Choose TCP and fill in the blanks with the destination being a printer in a network that the client does not have ICMP echo open to. (remote printer is Firewalled, access listed, etc...) 4.Test the connection. Actual Results: Observed with TCP dump that the connection wizard was attempting ICMP echo to the printer ip address and then failing without ever attempting a tcp connection on the port specified. (Telnet from console on the tcp port to the printer works fine) Expected Results: Connection wizard should not rely on ICMP echo to check the availability of a device. A connection to the actual TCP port specified should instead be attempted.

User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; de; rv:1.9.2.4) Gecko/20100527 SUSE/3.6.4-2.4 Firefox/3.6.4 When setting a printer description in yast2 that contains quotes (such as '' 42" roll printer ''), yast2 fails to re-read the printer queue afterwards. It displays an error message "failed to read /var/lib/YaST2/autodetected_print_queues.ycp. The yast2 log shows that it fails when re-reading /var/lib/YaST2/autodetected_print_queues.ycp (see attached y2log snippet). Yast2 printer then permanently fails, and not printers can be configured anymore. Previously configures printers keep working, though.

Printer configuration from now on permanently fails for this reason. Expected Results: Yast2 does not fail, but catch entering quotes in the description string. This bug is also present in 11.2. I guess a check in yast2 whether the description string (probably also the location?) contains " will fix this bug. -- 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.
