http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=550875 Summary: rc2 (build 337) kde live cd wants to install gnome and other strange things Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Factory Platform: i686 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Live Medium AssignedTo: coolo@novell.com ReportedBy: martin.schlander@gmail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; da-DK; rv:1.9.0.14) Gecko/2009090900 SUSE/3.0.14-0.1.2 Firefox/3.0.14 Installed i686 kde livecd (build 337). On the first run of yast sw_single, it wants to install metacity, nautilus.. well, all of gnome basically. It also wants to install ooo-help, ooo-thesaurus and myspell dictionaries for a lot of languages I don't want to use. It also wants to install joe, ed, and zsh. And various semi-strange packages such as compiz and related things.

And this is exactly what happens: the DVD very likely also installs compiz and related things (the KDE team wanted the compiz pattern to be left installed, I only blocked it for the live cd). But now the problem starts: compiz requires a window manager plugin and compiz-kde was dropped because it was completly broken. So compiz-gnome is the only one left and it requires _a lot_. -- 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.

Also blocking all DVD only patterns on the live cd improves this. -- 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.

And this is 10% of the download after the above fixes, so I don't think that blocking everything will be what people expect. -- 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.

A lot of this is OpenOffice localization, but also a lot of documentation packages I don't want to block. There will be some download left to do. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 551003 *** http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=551003 -- 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.

These packages should also be removed from the recommended packages list on a GNOME install. -- 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.

This could be fixed, but for 600K I'm not going to create a new DVD only pattern. If someone feels very strong about it we can move yast2-qt to gnome-basis-opt or the like. ksmolt suprises me actually and the rest are very likely dependency of it. checking -- 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.

And python-qt4 is pulled by hplip, which is recommended by a pattern. So my previous fix for blocking the pattern blocks ksmolt too. -- 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.
