[Bug 347166] New: "Add Online Repositories Before Installation" option mistaken
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=347166 Summary: "Add Online Repositories Before Installation" option mistaken Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: unspecified Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: locilka@novell.com ReportedBy: stbinner@novell.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: Development openSUSE 10.3 showed that users/reviewers didn't notice this option (one reason it was enabled by default in Final) and were later surprised that it would install packages from the Internet. One solution would be to rename the option to "Add Online Repositories [Before Installation] and Install Additional Software Not On CD". Or an additional Warning/Continue/Cancel messagebox explaining that installation will take longer and will use bandwith if the user keeps this checkbox enabled. -- 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.
