Feature added by: Marek Stopka (m4r3k) Feature #306006, revision 1, last change by Title: btrfs in openSUSE openSUSE-11.2: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Marek Stopka (m4r3k) Description: I think it is time to make btrfs as a part of upcoming openSUSE 11.2, probably with BIG warning but still there should be possibility to use btrfs and even better with some kind of integration in YaST disk module... Fedora is going for btrfs with next release either. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/306006

[openFATE 307914] package maintenance owner handling
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 21 Jan '10

21 Jan '10

Feature added by: Adrian Schröter (adrianSuSE) Feature #307914, revision 1 Title: package maintenance owner handling Buildservice: Evaluation Priority Requester: Mandatory Projectmanager: Mandatory Requested by: Dirk Mueller (dirkmueller) Description: We need to support the package maintainer handling for maintenance update via a new mechanism for the following reasons: * internal PDB is not be used anymore for openSUSE 11.2 * We have now the situation that package X may have different maintainers depending on maintained products. Current discussion points to the following needs: * bugowner needs to be set on packages also for released product projects (like openSUSE:11.1). * request mechanism to add or change a bugowner in foreign projects * maintained products/projects list must be requestable (can be hardcoded list in first attempt) * osc command needs to find all projects and package maintainers for a certain package via an api call. Later steps: * define how a maintained package can be set in the projects * support a "osc prepare_maintainance_update $package" call which creates one projects with all affected package versions for a certain package. * SWAMP integration. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/307914

[openFATE 308133] Easy way to add information about a repository to be shown during its activation
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 21 Jan '10

21 Jan '10

Feature added by: Lubos Lunak (llunak) Feature #308133, revision 1 Title: Easy way to add information about a repository to be shown during its activation Buildservice: New Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Lubos Lunak (llunak) Description: Currently there doesn't seem to be a simple way to give information to use users who add a repository. For example, users adding the KDE:KDE4:Factory:Desktop repository should know that the KDE provided there a working version for the next openSUSE release and it may not be as stable as they might expect (they can just read about the repository e.g. in a forum and not know more). One way to do this could be to reuse the licence dialog, showing information about the repository instead of a licence, but there appears to be no simple way to do this (it reportedly requires creating a ftp product somehow, for which I could find any usable instructions). -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/308133

[openFATE 306529] Deactivate build if home:user:branch:foo is inactive for 1 or 2 weeks
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 21 Jan '10

21 Jan '10

Feature added by: Jan-Simon Möller (dl9pf) Feature #306529, revision 1 Title: Deactivate build if home:user:branch:foo is inactive for 1 or 2 weeks Buildservice: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Jan-Simon Möller (dl9pf) Description: It would save quite some cpu-cycles if branches which are not in active use - e.g. no change in 1 or 2 weeks - would just get the build disabled. Thus the wave during each factory checkin wouldn't be that high. Or even delete branches if they're inactive for 1 or 2 weeks and only the pristine _link is there. This could be extended to disable the build for factory repos in user's home-dir if there're no checkin's for some time. I don't want to prevent ppl from tracking factory in their home: , but a plain _link is just pointless and build should be disabled automagically after some time. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/306529

[New: openFATE 308381] Firefox
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 19 Jan '10

19 Jan '10

Feature added by: Howdy Doody (wye4) Feature #308381, revision 1 Title: Firefox openFATE: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Howdy Doody (wye4) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: One of the nice features in the past concerning Firefox was the cookie management options and the clearing of private data options. The version of Firefox that comes with Suse 11.2 KDE4.3 doesn't have these options. I have always been a fanatic concerning private data. I was rather surprised to see everything work after a fresh installof Suse 11.2. Congratulations I am really happy with 11.2 KDE4.3. I only had a couple of hiccups. Accessing Kate, Kwrite or any other editor failed when using Dolphin or any file manager as the Super User. Easily fixed by bringing up a terminal and typing "xhost +local:0". I can't take credit for the fix it's been around since Suse 9 or earlier. I don't know how bad I am going to screw up your hard work but Firefox without the afore mentioned options has got to go. I'll try going to 11.1 dvd and stealing the Firefox off it. Actually I'm sure I am not alone in this concern. I understand the reasoning for setting Firefox as the default. I read the minutes. I had to smile about the ie8 under wine wise crack. Hope Konqueror gets it together by 11.3... Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: Data security and cookie management is obviously a security issue. As I stated before a lot of us set Firefox to delete all the personal data when Firefox is closed. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/308381
