http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=607132 http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=607132#c0 Summary: gnome-packagekit (and kupdate-applet) is assuming to run on non-opensuse Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.3 Version: Milestone 6 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: GNOME AssignedTo: bnc-team-gnome@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: jdsn@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de CC: sreeves@novell.com, coolo@novell.com, tgoettlicher@novell.com Found By: Development Blocker: --- Today I searched in the updater applets (KDE and GNOME) for calls to yast2 modules because I want to drop the yast2-system-profile package - both applets used to call it, but it got replaced by smoltGui. I did not find a call to this module but something different: https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file?file=gnome-packagekit-fate302445.patch&package=gnome-packagekit&project=openSUSE%3AFactory (line 72) The Gnome applet checks for the existance of the file /usr/share/applications/YaST2/suse_register.desktop to find out if it runs on openSUSE and then calls the external application "smoltGui". But this file belonges to the package yast2-registration which _is_ already dropped in Factory and thus openSUSE 11.3 as well. So on every 11.3 the applet will assume to run on a non-openSUSE system and never call "smoltGui". Please use a different method to find out if the current system is an openSUSE or not. BTW. I just found out that this bug is valid for the KDE-updater-applet as well. Thomas, if you want to track this in a separate bug, I can clone this one for you. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
