[opensuse-factory] [status report] openSUSE distribution, week 37
Hi! Didn't manage to write the status yesterday, I guess in calmer weeks it will be easier :) status report: week 37 - Christoph was responsible for beta2 and beta3, I took back over after beta3 was released (thanks for all the warm words, btw). - bug count is biggest concern right now. We're down from 12 blocker and 98 critical on saturday to 5 blocker and 91 critical (this of course include massive testing from all side, so we see new bugs every hour). - Biggest non-working part seems to be update right now. It creates problems in several parts. Update from 10.1 was completely unsupported with beta3, update from 10.2 created broken bootloader config in parts. - we reorganized the DVD layout again, so we fit more packages suggested in patterns and remove things that aren't listed in patterns. - we found a solution for the bundle-lang problem, so that we can save space on the CDs without breaking update to FTP later - we're still discussing if we go with ipw or iwl as default for the newer Intel wlan chips. iwl still has issues, but ipw is no longer maintained by Intel (but is our default as I write) - libzypp in beta3 had severe problems, so we have to have good faith for RC1 (online update was broken and the online update to fix it wasn't pulled in for everyone - and update from 10.2-x86_64 has shown problems) - the bigsmp kernel still causes problems (not just on virtualbox), so I decided to revert that feature and go with bigsmp only on big smp machines again (we might have a pae kernel in the future, so we're still interested in figuring out what's the problem with the other kernel). - LiveCDs of beta3 have shown too many problems to release them. So we only use them for further developing of them - this week: - more bug fixing - daily builds till we have a working update from 10.2 on coolo's laptop and a half way working update from 10.1 on coolo's wife computer (I admit it sounds selfish :) - an internal build with DVD. Based on that I'll publish live CDs. If you miss anything, let me know.
