Especially as "add a new installation source" means (openSUSE 10.2) - Calling yast - Enter password - Call source manager - about 3-10 minutes waiting for inst-source updates - Getting URL (konqueror, firefox) - Entering URL in inst-source (C&P) - Retyping URL, as we forget directory or were a directory to deep - Wait again, lots of clicks - Go to installation - about 3-10 minutes waiting again - search the tool - select the tool - install the tool - 3-5 minutes waiting for SuSE config
Compared to - wget URL:xxx.rpm - su -c "rpm -i xxx.rpm" - Enter password
and now compare to: downlaod xxx.rpm su -c "rpm -i xxx.rpm" missing libfoo.so.2 what package contains libfoo.so.2? and for all the user faults above you cant blame the tools either. last but not least most suseconfig scripts are optimized to only run the heavy stuff when needed. darix -- openSUSE - SUSE Linux is my linux openSUSE is good for you www.opensuse.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org
