https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=216097 ------- Comment #7 from sven.burmeister@gmx.net 2006-10-30 08:54 MST ------- SUSEWatcher was replaced by zen-updater without asking the user. Now that people got used to it and its functionality, it is replaced by opensuseupdater, without asking the user during installation. This would not be a problem, if it supplied the same functionality. Since zen-updater did not have any moral problems by giving the user the free choice which sources to check, opensuseupdater should not have either. Why would one artificially restrict the application, if the opposite was seen as sensible for zen-updater? I think it was even advertised that with zen-updater installing/updating was now a lot easier. So now it will be advertised that people did not use its functionality in a sensible way (third party repos) and thus an new/old updater will restrict them to patches only. Give the user the freedom to decide. Factory is obviously not a good choice for updating once the final was installed, but it was just an example, you can replace it by any other source. -- 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.
