#2 You think the well being of a few imaginary users installing KDE, and later for some reason installing GNOME, is more important than making the distro the best it can be for all the KDE users out of the box?
No, I just think that half-half is a dirty thing and certainly there will be users who manage finding themselves in a situation where they try to use a zmd that does not have any sources, and of course they will report it in the "Security" component as "Critical". The current implementation assumes zmd to be installed and running on all systems. This does not mean that the current implementation is good. Everybody knows that it is not. By all means, yes, this use case is not what most people do. (I wouldn't call it imaginary, however). But getting "rug: command not found" in a default KDE installation in 10.2 after the painful introduction in 10.1 is something that will cost quite some support resources (people _are_ using it, it's not true that everyone uninstalls it). It means more forking of documentation and support (in the sense "if you're using 10.1, do X, if you're using 10.2, to Y, but not with GNOME because then it's still X even in 10.2). Costly, maybe doable anyway. Actually I don't have a finalized opinion on this. -- 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.
