Feature added by: Drew Kwashnak (dragonbite) Feature #306635, revision 1 Title: Gnome main menu should have openSUSE logo, not generic computer openSUSE-11.2: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Neutral openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Neutral Requested by: Drew Kwashnak (dragonbite) Description: The Gnome version of openSUSE should have the openSUSE logo either squared (like the head used in KDE) or a horizontile button instead of the generic computer icon. As unimportant as it seems, that is a marketing aspect that should not be overlooked. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/306635

[New: openFATE 308281] Empathy as default IM client
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 04 Jun '10

04 Jun '10

Feature added by: Udaya Kumar (ukumars) Feature #308281, revision 1 Title: Empathy as default IM client openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Udaya Kumar (ukumars) Description: Empathy has good support for voice chat, which happens to be missing in Linux for long time. Have tried it on ubuntu and have liked it. I like it to be part of openSUSE release as default IM client. I don't like to switch to another Linux flavor, as openSUSE is more comfortable to use and simpler to manage. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/308281

Feature added by: Vincent Untz (vuntz) Feature #307899, revision 1 Title: Switch from beagle to tracker openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Vincent Untz (vuntz) Description: Beagle is going to be unmaintained, and tracker is seeing quite some development (and is even proposed for inclusion in GNOME), so I think we should switch to tracker for 11.3. http://mail.gnome.org/archives/dashboard-hackers/2009-September/msg00005.ht… -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/307899

02 Jun '10

Feature added by: Will Stephenson (wstephenson) Feature #305905, revision 1, last change by Title: Package and Project Marking Buildservice: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Will Stephenson (wstephenson) Description: * Add the ability to have a 'status update' on packages AND projects * * status updates are not package changelogs; logs refer to changes to the contents of the package, status updates relate to ongoing work on the packages * * 1:N relationship, status updates are timestamped. Like facebook or $microblogging service. * show current status on checkout or list * Add a command to read all the status updates on a package. Examples: 1) Jack is updating Commodore:Amiga:Workbench:Factory to 23.2 and disables publish on the whole project before the actual release date with the status message '20090224 - disabled publish pending 23.2 release' 2) Jill is triaging breakages in Commodore:Amiga:Workbench:Factory and marks packages without checking them out before assigning work to team members Denise and Paula, with "osc mark -m 'broken by input.device changes' Commodore:Amiga:Workbench:Factory Preferences" 3) Paula is fixing a breakage in Commodore:Amiga:Workbench:Factory Preferences and locks (see #305899) the package with status update using "osc co -l -m '20090225 - fixing build failure due to input.device changes' Commodore:Amiga:Workbench:Factory Preferences" -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/305905

Feature added by: Udaya Kumar (ukumars) Feature #308282, revision 1 Title: iPod touch/iPhone access using iFuse openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Udaya Kumar (ukumars) Description: Wondering if iFuse can be added as a default support to manage iPod/iPhone, as well, perhaps Banshee could be replaced with Rhythmbox as a default media manager. Alternatively, Banshee could be enhanced to support iPod Touch/iPhone. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/308282

[New: openFATE 308278] openSUSE DomU PV/PVGRUB support for XEN and Citrix XenServer
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 28 May '10

28 May '10

Feature added by: Matt Sealey (mwsealey) Feature #308278, revision 1 Title: openSUSE DomU PV/PVGRUB support for XEN and Citrix XenServer openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Mandatory Requested by: Matt Sealey (mwsealey) Description: Running Citrix XenServer or Xen Dom0 from openSUSE 11.2 is all well and good but the support for the kernel in DomU is not that great; Citrix for example provide a kernel and DVD for Debian specifically designed for DomU operation, and there are templates for installing Debian Lenny using PV-GRUB. As far as I can see this is simply not implemented in openSUSE so the support for the client Linux OS is really not as great as it could be. Is there any plan for support for this? There should be! Xen is not just about running a system capable of virtualization but running a system inside the virtualization... -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/308278

[openFATE 307506] Improve Factory check-in workflow
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 20 May '10

20 May '10

Feature added by: Adrian Schröter (adrianSuSE) Feature #307506, revision 1 Title: Improve Factory check-in workflow Buildservice: Evaluation Priority Requester: Important Projectmanager: Important Requested by: Stephan Kulow (coolo) Description: We have currently the problem that we do not want to do permanent checkins into Factory project to allow depending packages finish building. But on the other hand, we want to do the review at any point of time and push the new sources into the project at once. We had a discussion about this and this was the results: * Create a concept for requests states, reflecting the currently internal states happen during checkin. Reflecting legal and review states. (AI: Rudi) * Add a functionality to add comments to requests without changing the state. (AI: Klaas/Adrian create xml concept) * Offer a clean server side repository cloning functionality (AI: mls) * osc shall call precheckin.sh on checkin and build (AI: adrian) * internal check_if_valid_source_dir checks must become public (AI: adrian/ro/lrupp) -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/307506

[openFATE 307742] Allow adding remote src.rpm via webclient instead of uploading files one by one
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 19 May '10

19 May '10

Feature added by: Pavol Rusnak (prusnak) Feature #307742, revision 1 Title: Allow adding remote src.rpm via webclient instead of uploading files one by one Buildservice: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Pavol Rusnak (prusnak) Description: Usecase: When one wants to build chromium in OBS. He has to download src.rpm from http://spot.fedorapeople.org/chromium/F12/chromium-4.0.208.0-0.1.20090910sv… which is 450MB, unpack it and upload via osc. It would be much easier if adding remote file via webclient accepted also src.rpm files. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/307742

by fate_noreply＠suse.de 19 May '10

19 May '10

Feature added by: Alex Savin (alexqwesa) Feature #308268, revision 1 Title: Allow to easy check what sources was unmodified -show cheksum and url of tarball Buildservice: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Alex Savin (alexqwesa) Description: Allow to easy check what source tarball was not modified: 1) add field for url to official project download page (url where packager got source) 2) show checksum for tarball generated by Buildservice Often source tarball already have checksum (in project download page or in VCS(version control systems), and all what needed to check is sources modified: 1) see checksum in Buildservice 2) see checksum in official project download page, or in VCS, or etc... 3) just compare it)) This is important, because some people want to use additional software (for example: from http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/ repos), but don't trust these packagers -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/308268
