https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=660943 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=660943#c5 --- Comment #5 from Geoff Farrell <gfarrell@netspeed.com.au> 2011-01-08 06:38:37 UTC --- I installed yast2-packager-2.20.14-57.1.x86_64.rpm from the openSUSE Build Service. The drop-down box now correctly identifies all eleven partitions correctly (ie, I can select /dev/sda11), and the repository is created successfully. A remaining issue is that, after repository creation, the partition enumeration is shown as: hd://?device=/dev/disk/by%2did/wwn%2d0x5000cca614c37059%2dpart11&filesystem=auto The string seems to be correct except for the substitution of the '-' character with '%2d', as can be seen from the following bash commands: with the substitution: # ll /dev/disk/by%2did/wwn%2d0x5000cca614c37059%2dpart11 ls: cannot access /dev/disk/by%2did/wwn%2d0x5000cca614c37059%2dpart11: No such file or directory without the substitution: # ll /dev/disk/by-id/wwn-0x5000cca614c37059-part11 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 Jan 6 17:41 /dev/disk/by-id/wwn-0x5000cca614c37059-part11 -> ../../sda11 The substitution of '-' with '%2d' is confusing to a user, as the device does not exist in that form in /dev, as demonstrated by the 'No such file or directory' error message in the first listing above. Request that the representation to the user be corrected to include the '-' character instead of '%2d'. -- 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.
