At every Opensuse release, scads of non-home repos fail to be enabled by the time of the release.
As a result, we don't upgrade until WELL AFTER release -- when, in response to our incessant nagging, all the repos finally get enabled.
Who is "we"? I generally do upgrades when they are issued.
And, since that's the 'real world' we operate in, we don't test the release in that 'real world' until AFTER the release.
Again remains the question, who is we.
Is that a desired project outcome?
No, probably closer to a reality.
We'd test more broadly if upgrading to a new distro didn't break stuff by forcing downgrades to our prior-distro's-non-home-repo-upgraded-packages.
Easily solved by having those equivalent repos enabled for new distro asap ...
If a devel repo has a >50% probability of being enabled eventually, it should be enabled @ release.
And who/how is it decided that ">50% probability" is met? aisi, only by a vote of *every* openSUSE (not Opensuse) user. How would you achieve that? And who is to say that that is not already the case with the inability to actually accurately determine 50%? Are you going to provide or recruit the necessary manpower to accomplish and maintain this? Intrested as this would be a *great* enhancement to openSUSE. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
