Fortunately, Linux is nowhere near that bad, but openSUSE still installs a lot of what I fell are unnecessary programs like Beagle, OpenOffice(KOffice is much better and uses less resources if you use KDE), AppArmour, etc. I realize that the devs want to make the install easier and that they choose a specific set of apps to install, but, from my experience, 90% of the people never even use a Desktop search program, so it's just a waste. Also, YaST can make it a pain to uninstall stuff. Try removing OpenOffice, AppAromour or Beagle in 11.0, and you'll get dependency complaints. If the main module of a program is selected for removal, all parts of it should be removed unless they have a dependency elsewhere(which they shouldn't). I haven't tried it in 11.1 yet.
That's dependency problem of packages, not libzypp (and thus not YaST). Stano -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
