[opensuse-factory] Really too much to ask for a working Software Management system ??

2 Jun 2012

      Since the update of Factory to GCC 4.7, the YaST software management system 
has not been working anymore. I have seen numerous bug reports on this, but it 
seems as if the YaST maintainers are pointing to the Zypp Team. 

So instead of working together and providing a solution for this, we as users 
are still stuck with a non working Software Management system. Despite that we 
have already reached the 12.2 Beta 1 milestone. 

Are we really expecting from our users that they will fall-back to a command 
line tool with reduced functionality ??   I think this is the biggest Show-
Stopper that openSUSE 12.2 has at the moment and I really hope that the YaST 
and Zypper teams getting their acts together and providing a working solution 
before 12.2 is released. It would be really strange to see a release without 
the possibility to update the system properly. 

I apologize for the tone of the message, but I am really getting pissed off 
with the current situation around YaST and if this is not resolved soon, then 
my system for one will never see the official release of 12.2.
