https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=335883 Summary: Provide a default for the repository name in the "software repositories" module Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: cschum@novell.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Depends on: 335880 Found By: --- When adding a new repository the user has to put in a name. YaST should provide a default here or even better get a name from the repository itself. User provided names can be confusing and make it particularly hard to support other users because there is no consistent terminology in the UI anymore. -- 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.

In fact the requested feature has already been implemented. I think the main problem is how it's presented to the user. Description in the help text is probably not sufficient, I think something like "<Use product name>" should be preselected in the text entry to indicate that there is no need to enter any name. Or I could add radio buttons: (o) Use product name ( ) Use custom name Custom Name: ________________ -- 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.

The problem is that reading the product name requires downloading from the repository which cannot be done automatically but only after pressing [Next] button. Until the [Next] button is not pressed the URL might not be complete. -- 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.

This page could also be used to show download progress in a more user-friendly way. -- 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.

So all repositories would get added without the user having to think about names and the user still could adapt the name to whatever needs. -- 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.
