https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=215649 ------- Comment #31 from volker3204@paradise.net.nz 2006-11-11 20:40 MST ------- What I would like to know is why the situation arises (again) that it's beta phase, and no satisfactory package management is in sight. That the package management is unusable was known before 10.1 went final - next round, same story?!?? That zmd is a problem, not a solution, to most people but large enterprise has been obvious for a long time. Why is there still a dependency on this? That the community acceptance of zmd, by and large, is NULL is wrong. The acceptance is NEGATIVE. Nobody would complain if it was an add-on for enterprise users... Yast losing installation sources is very annoying and not that infrequent. Don't start yast when your broadband is down. Don't start yast when ftp://localhost/ isn't running (needed to get updates to work with delta rpms, because mirroring deltas *and* full packages is daft). This is a bug fix though, not a feature change. I see a non-zmd/rug package management for 10.2 final as critical. People are moving to Ubuntu in droves already, and I know some SUSE users are holding out to give SUSE one more chance with 10.2. -- 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.
