[opensuse-factory] cinnamon
Coolo, I know this is going to enable you in 'Wrath of God' mode, but nevertheless I have to do it... There's a lot of reports from Cinnamon not being working with proprietary drivers, it does with open source drivers. To be honest, though it's just two packages, it's something not worth the trouble to maintain... here's why: 1) We have 2 GNOME releases per cycle; this means 2 completly different cinnamon's for every cycle; 2) Upstream development isn't either as active as we would like, neither has been receptive to bugs outside Ubuntu/Debian; this is good enough to drop this packages on the spot... 3) Fedora and openSUSE have been having a few issues with prelinking; I can't fix this, goes way over the stuff I know. 4) Fedora has a lot of people trying to block cinnamon from being available in Fedora due to how upstream is doing the development.... This to say... either someone takes cinnamon or it dies right here and right now. I don't have time to go on crazy wild goose chases... and maybe it's time to stop the crazy non-sense stuff I've been doing and dedicate myself to hunting, which at least does provide food :) I'm going to vaporize cinnamon and request deletion from Factory if there are no objections and never look to the thing again :) -- Nelson Marques // I've stopped trying to understand sandwiches with a third piece of bread in the middle... -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Are you intentionally doing the Cinnamon-Factory in-out dance to DOS coolo? Please decide what you are going to support, by hook or by crook, over at least an openSUSE product life cycle, and stick to your decision.

Dude, I apologized to the man... feel free to grab the pitch fork and the torch and join the angry mob... I'll see if I can secure a trench and a MG42 with some ammo and I'll wait for the angry mob there :) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
