Daniel Schmidt 2007-11-19 10:05:31 MST --- No - it never was. In the beginning of an installation the user was shown some "Community Repositories" to be added. I think it would make sense to offer an update source there as well. But this is done in "packager/src/clients/inst_productsources.ycp". -- 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.

If you want to add your online repos to the list then do so, this should not be done by default because it would require online access during DVD installation. _And_ this got nothing to do with the update repo, which I consider funny that #4 got it into play as it's completly off topic to this bug. -- 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.

No need to lookup the repos. And we can't add the network repos by default because as I said it would be random if the package is pulled from DVD or repo, but if you want to replace your DVD with online, the tools are there. For 11.0 libzypp may know how to prioritze repos and then we can revisit 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.

*** Bug 342573 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

I don't underestand why. It's different issue affecting only updates either on DVD or CD as well (maybe even LiveCD). There's no need to make this option default. It would be sufficient/better simple to have this option available at the beginning of installation along with OSS and NON-OSS online repositories option, since it: 1. can be already used by adding extra repository manually (but it is quite difficult and knowledge of it is required along with update URL) and it is available in the second stage of installation anyway 2. provides updated (fixed) packages before the second stage of installation (for me it fixed problems, when my network connection does not work during the second stage of installation and the first boot of KDE and GNOME that was extremely slow in addition) 3. save quite a large amount of a bandwidth to server and user 4. is time saving https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=342573 -- 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.

I can tell you: - the updates all need to be downloaded in full beauty into memory and then installed.

Where is the problem? As far as I know it is the same process as in the second stage of installation (after an reboot).

- we have no way to QA updates in a running system _and_ in installation

I can uderestand this point. On the other hand I actually have experience, when the updates radically improve the installation experience for me.

- deltas won't work without _major_ changes, so it would actually _add_ to the bandwidth requirements

Well, therefore is the same as in the second stage of installation. But user can be able to choose at the begining of the installation and save time to on the computer and it will leed to less installation steps.

So we decided against it.

I believe this issue is worth to think over it and reconsider it once again to find acceptable solution of implementation. -- 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.
