And if you look at any application name in YaST2 Software Manager you will see that each entry (from all the ones I have looked at) show the entry, "Supportability: unknown".
Now, this is most telling because the YaST2 rpm itself, which I understand is something written by the SuSE people for SuSE/openSUSE, has this description (Supportability: unknown) attached to it!
Now for this particular issue, would you mind filing a bug (enhancement) so as not to display the information about package supportability on openSUSE? Or to display it in some better way as it is pretty much useless in its current form. To explain in more detail, 'Supportability: unknown' does not mean that the package is unsupported. It only means that openSUSE repositories most likely do not contain metadata about package supportability and I doubt they ever will. This is because data such as 'this package has L[123] support (no customer support, respectively)' are irrelevant to openSUSE users as (unlike enterprise products) there is no such thing like L[123] support for openSUSE. Thus it makes little sense to show that bit of information in the package description. hB. -- \\\\\ Katarina Machalkova \\\\\\\__o YaST developer __\\\\\\\'/_ & hedgehog painter -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
