This is a major change to openSUSE security policy, and should get much more discussion than a couple of comments on a minor buglet(which should have been in openFATE). This >might< be okay on a system with only one novice user, but for a machine with a designated admin, this is a disaster waiting to happen. I certainly would not like to have my wife or sons installing ANYTHING without my knowledge, even patches. Since I have to fix anything that goes wrong, I want to know when something changes, else I'd be wasting my time trying to fix what changed. And using Flash as an example argues more against this change than for it; given the number of broken updates they've put out in the last few months, anybody who isn't out on the bleeding edge wouldn't install a Flash update until he's waited a few days, checked the forums, and maybe tried it in a VM before adding it to a stable system. Don't even >think< of pushing this to SLED/SLES. Every sysadmin in the world would be after your head. -- 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.
