Epilogue: QA!
The mere notion that every RC of openSuse or any change to the management of
any NIC, from Installation to operation; that is NOT tested on a test LAN where
NO DHCP Services are offered by the test LAN environment, begs disbelief.
There are a litany of bugs that I have raised when I have performed tests on a
LAN where NO DHCP Services are offered.
It is clearly evident as in this bug, that NO testing is done by suse.de on
such a test LAN environment.
I would suggest very strongly that suse.de commits to test every RC from
Installation to changes in the management of NICs on a test LAN where NO DHCP
Services what so ever are offered.
The assumption that DHCP Services are always available on every LAN is
short-sighted to say the least.
QA - Could you please put in place that testing of every RC or NIC Management
alteration be tested on a LAN where no such DHCP Services are offered as a
matter of course from now on. - We will all then avoid a litany of problems
that do exist if we put in place this mandatory testing arrangement.
