Daniel Schmidt <jdsn@novell.com> 2008-11-06 11:22:19 MST --- It is not pulled automatically at installation time, right. But it is checked and installed later at runtime of yast2-x11. This is due to historical reasons :) Currently I'm trying to find out why this is exactly and hope that nothing prevents me from creating proper "requires" for the package. -- 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.

Daniel Schmidt <jdsn@novell.com> 2008-11-06 17:07:12 MST --- We will not fix this by setting the needed packages to the requires. The use case is, that (not only this but also other) YaST modules should be installed - without their dependencies to save disk space - and pull them in (if they are missing) at runtime, when the user chooses to use them the first time. Currently this is the only way to make "minimal installations" possible while at the same time showing all important YaST modules in the YaST Control Center. See the discussion on the yast-devel mailing list for details: http://lists.opensuse.org/yast-devel/2008-11/msg00001.html I think we will address this issue later (and then solve it for all YaST modules) when we have something like this in our distribution(s): http://kobliha-suse.blogspot.com/2008/08/yast-can-list-not-yet-installed-mod... So for now I will close this bug as WONTFIX. -- 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.
