(I notified the Packman guys and they repaired it some time ago.) Owing to the bad accessibility of respective data, it just took us a while to get to that conclusion. But that's not the issue at hand. We asked for an *enhancement* of zypper to allow us to handle corrupt repositories better, in a more flexible fashion. After all, one is usually not in the situation to fix the root cause of that problem since we don't own the repositories and thus one needs both robust and flexible behaviour here. Since one very often has dozens of repository, such corruptness can happen again, and added robustness would make zypper better in that case. Simply saying "works as designed" takes away the opportunity to use our user feedback to improve your software, which is a very sad attitude. -- 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.
