It is perfectly normal that an indexing tool is especially active when building an initial index. Whoever doesn't have the patience to wait Beagle should be an OPTION not a preset thing .
I would think very few people using Opensuse on the desktop either at work or at home do not need Beagle and prefere a faster more responsive machine to one that is faffing around building an unwanted index of some form . Again, I strongly doubt that; few people are properly organized (I'm not), otherwise Google Desktop wouldn't be the success it is.
Before this goes on and on like the opensuse@ thread, I propose that I
(being someone interested in the beagle decision and somewhat
responsible for its packaging) put together a summary of the issues
real/perceived, known bugs and a list of the options. I should be able
to do this sometime next week.
One note is that there really hasn't been a precedent for discussing
distro changes like this in public, its generally been up to "the powers
that be" - either the team leads or developers at Novell for various
components or coolo/aj to make this decision so this is kind of a
change.
