The same happens when searching for packages for Debian-based distributions. However, they usually don't know how to handle the provided YMP file. In order to reach the same functionality (subscribing to a certain package repository), a user has to follow the instructions outlined here: http://wiki.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Build_Service_Debian_builds#Configuring_so... This process is cumbersome and far away from a 1-Click solution. For now, I would suggest to remove the "1-Click Install" link when a user searches for Debian packages, as it only adds confusion. In the long term, it would be nice if a functional 1-Click installation mechanism for Debian-based systems would be provided. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Search for a package for a Debian-based distribution 2. Click on the "1-Click Install" link 3. Observe it does not do what the user would expect. Expected Results: When clicking "1-Click Install" from a Debian-based system, I would expect the respective package repository to be added to my /etc/apt/sources.list file and the package in question to be installed automatically. Take a look at http://code.google.com/p/one-click-installer/ - maybe it would help to facilitate 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.
