Feature added by: Todd R (TheBlackCat) Feature #306974, revision 1 Title: Additional columns in software management openSUSE-11.2: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Todd R (theblackcat) Description: It would be nice if there were a few additional columns in the software management interface. One specific column I am interested in would be an architecture column, to show you the architecture of an installed package or the architecture the package would have if you were to install it. The other column would show the repository of the package, either the repository of an installed package or the repository the package would be downloaded from if you were to install it. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/306974

Feature added by: Joe Brockmeier (jbrockmeier) Feature #306598, revision 1 Title: Sync Tomboy/Tasque with Evernote Requested by: Joe Brockmeier (jbrockmeier) Description: Evernote is a pretty cool service, but it doesn't have a Linux client. I'd like to be able to sync my Tomboy notes with Evernote and retrieve them from another machine. Same with Tasque -- I'd like to be able to save a to-do list to Evernote from tasque so I could use a mobile Evernote client to look up my to-dos. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/306598

Feature added by: Juergen Weigert (jnweiger) Feature #306588, revision 1 Title: improve on software search Requested by: Juergen Weigert (jnweiger) Description: software.o.o/search is always a case insensitive substring search. I'd like to hack into the system and add - optional case sensitivity,- exact package name search- regexp search This is an opportunity to learn ruby on rails for me. Any takers, who want to coach me, especially with Rails welcome. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/306588

Feature added by: Agustin Chavarria (dj_ubun_1) Feature #305705, revision 1, last change by Title: Types of installation openSUSE-11.2: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Agustin Chavarria (dj_ubun_1) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: would be good, that at the time of installation opensuse, ask what you want to install, like a template, without having to go to edit to add software. An example for that will be: Multimedia install Full install server install developer install -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/?rm=feature_show&id=305705

[openFATE 306606] GUI client for SUSE Studio
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 12 Aug '13

12 Aug '13

Feature added by: Cornelius Schumacher (cschum) Feature #306606, revision 1 Title: GUI client for SUSE Studio Requested by: Cornelius Schumacher (cschum) Description: SUSE Studio is a fantastic web app, but sometimes it would still be more convenient to have a native client, for example when dealing with lots of overlay files, or to manage writing downloaded appliances to physical media or running and controlling them in a virtual machine. The Studio API makes it possible to write a native client. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/306606

[openFate 305633] Support installation with encrypted root file system
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 10 Aug '13

10 Aug '13

Feature added by: Andreas Jaeger <aj(a)novell.com> Feature #305633, revision 1, last change by Title: Support installation with encrypted root file system openSUSE-11.2: Unconfirmed Requested by: Stephan Kleine (bitshuffler) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: One thing openSUSE is really missing, compared with other popular distributions, is the ability to install into an encrypted root file system so _everything_ is encrypted. While the manual installation / setup like described at http://en.opensuse.org/Encrypted_Root_File_System_with_SUSE_HOWTO works, it is still cumbersome and error-prone to setup - especially on systems with small hard disks like e.g. laptops. IMHO this subject gets more and more important not only for laptops but also for normal workstations with respect to the global decline of privacy protection. Since all the necessary software is in place and Yast already has the option (including the GUI) to encrypt /home this shouldn't be that hard to do and would be a great feature for 11.1 (especially if you keep in mind that this will be the base for the next SLE version and corporations love security functionality provided out of the box as an option). Important points are: 1. it should work with LVMs as well 2. it should be possible to automatically generate a key on startup to encrypt the swap partition (given, this would disable suspend) 3. one should be able to use the same password for several partitions so one has to enter it just one time instead of once for every partition. Related reports: * Bug #397411 - Hibernation won't work with encrypted swap * Bug #399298 - encrypt swap partions by default on every boot using a random key * Bug #166067 - sysinfo:/ does not list encrypted /home partition Relations: - Easy to use Full Disk Encryption (feature/id: 304470) - Support installation with encrypted root file system (novell/bugzilla/id: 415479) https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=415479 Discussion: #1: Arvin Schnell (aschnell) (2008-08-08 11:39:11) Full disk encryption is already under discussion in fate #304470. Sorry, but it's not public. #2: Stephan Kleine (bitshuffler) (2008-12-17 09:49:10) Reopened because the whole installer was rewritten but still no one cared to add this. I'm sorry, but this feature request is about adding root file system encryption to openSUSE. When, or if at all, you add it to SLE, I couldn't care less about it, but I surely don't want to wait till SLE 12 ;) Also I understand that you don't want to track and update 2 different locations but, since that feature is asked for quite often, IMHO there should be a location for openSUSE users to express their need (as in vote) for it and to CC themself to get notified on updates / when it finally is implemented. Making the fate entry public at https://features.opensuse.org/ would be nice to have as well (since it isn't actual rocket science and suse is one of the last distributions to add this feature there shouldn't be a reason to track this behind closed doors) but I can happily live without it as long as you leave this request open so people can vote for it & cc themself. Thanks a lot. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/?rm=feature_show&id=305633

[openFATE 307408] Package request: Amaya
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 08 Aug '13

08 Aug '13

Feature added by: Peter Gumbrell (gumb) Feature #307408, revision 1 Title: Package request: Amaya Package Wishlist: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Peter Gumbrell (gumb) Description: Copied from old wishlist: Amaya (http://www.w3.org/Amaya/) : W3C's own all-in-one web editor / browser. Maintained for over 12 years. Features support for HTML, XHTML, XML, MathML, CSS, SVG and other emerging web technologies. Updated regularly and fully cross-platform. Provided under the W3C Software License (http://www.w3.org/Consortium/Legal/2002/copyright-software-20021231) (open source). Wanted by: Website developers, especially standards-compliant ones. Amaya is a very capable web design tool. It helps users to create perfect, standards-compliant code, featuring collaboration tools and all regular formatting with both WYSIWYG and source views, and it also doubles up as a web browser. The only current alternative that provides this sort of functionality is Kompozer, but that's still in an alpha/beta state and is prone to modifying your HTML formatting and producing imperfect results, being aimed more at the WYSIWYG user. The packages provided by the Amaya project often fail to work and nothing happens when I try to run the program on openSUSE 11.1. Any chance somebody could look at this and provide it via the Build Service, or consider its inclusion in future releases? -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/307408
