After installing a package why not ask if the user wants to install or remove more packages before bringing up the YaST2 Writing the system configuration?
Worse is that Yast Softwaremanagement, also when called separately, just disappears after having done the updates asked. So if you want to do some more, one has to call the program again.
This behaviour is new in the 11.1 series, up till then Yast did indeed ask the user whether he/she wanted to install more packages.
I didn't find a bug about this in bugzilla, so I'm inclined to file one.
But before doing so, I would like to ask developers if this is behaviour by design, and if yes, why?

You can look at https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=431854 to get an idea how the devs feel about this. IMHO closing after completion isn't that bad, you only have to click software management again instead of the message box that used to display and after completion of a long install you don't have to click the box to close yast.

Or simply leaving some type of wall message that everything went OK would be alright as well. Just something to say the update/install you started before leaving completed without any errors. For me I don't mind either way as long as we get that feedback without having to go digging in the logs. Anybody can dig in the logs and find out, but it just takes too much time -- if it can be avoided.
They broke something that worked, worked well and has been an established method. What we have now is like a store that closes up after serving one customer, forcing the next to ring a door bell. It disrupts the workflow pattern for no good reason.
Nope. We changed a behavior you got used to. Stano -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
