https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=215649 ------- Comment #2 from andreas.hanke@gmx-topmail.de 2006-10-27 23:47 MST ------- It's unfortunately not as easy as removing zmd from the patterns, sorry. If a user does a default KDE installation and we assume that this would be without zmd, and then installs GNOME later to try it out, then this user will get a nice zen-updater tray icon in GNOME that is totally non-functional because zmd will not have any installation sources. Of course he will blame Novell/SUSE for not getting any security fixes. This uncovers how embarassingly broken the whole package management stack is by design. It needs to be fixed some day, either by a finding a non-absurd way to share the installation sources information between zypp and zmd, or by removing zmd from the distribution and not just from the KDE pattern. Besides that, selling zmd as a nice gift for openSUSE was a hard job - doing the exact opposite now won't be easier. -- 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.
