25 May '17

Feature added by: Cornelius Schumacher (cschum) Feature #306608, revision 1 Title: Grand Unified Social Network Requested by: Cornelius Schumacher (cschum) Description: Many sites let you manage your social networkins ome way, Facebook, Xing, Linkedin, OpenDesktop. Even Twitter and sites like Gitorious provide some of these functionality. It would be great to put all thisinfo together on the desktop and integrate it in some unified scheme, which merges and connects all your different social networks you have build on theweb. This certainly would be a UI challenge, but it has quite some potential. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/306608

[New: openFATE 308892] Replace scim with IBUS
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 25 May '17

Feature added by: Mingxi Wu (Mingxi_Wu) Feature #308892, revision 1 Title: Replace scim with IBUS openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Mingxi Wu (mingxi_wu) Description: SCIM upstream is almost dead. We should not keep an unmaintained software in openSUSE. IBUS (http://code.google.com/p/ibus/) a new developed input method is very active and full functionality, and other distributions like Ubuntu (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/desktop-karmic-input-methods) and Fedora already had done this. We have some contributors done the IBUS packaging at OBS https://build.opensuse.org/project/show?project=home:swyear:ibus . Everything is OK on my openSUSE 11.2 box except fail to enable it in a gnomesu window, but this is not a problem as other distributions don't have this bug. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/308892

Feature added by: Ilya Chernykh (Ansus) Feature #308424, revision 1 Title: Please port Light style revision 2 theme to KDE4 openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Ilya Chernykh (ansus) Description: Please port Light style revision 2 theme from KDE3 to KDE4.

This makes transition to KDE4 much easier and allows for better coexistence of KDE3 and KDE4 applications. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/308424

[openFate 305664] Server CD
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 25 May '17

25 May '17

Feature added by: Martin Schlander (cb400f) Feature #305664, revision 1, last change by Title: Server CD openSUSE-11.2: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Martin Schlander (cb400f) Description: Providing an official openSUSE server cd - with some often used server software - and perhaps a lightweight window manager like icewm or similar - would be a great thing for a number of reasons. - openSUSE is generally considered a desktop centric distribution, providing a server cd would do a heck of a lot to highligt the excellent (home-)server qualities of openSUSE. - The few people that realize that the openSUSE DVD/netinstall actually offers text mode/server installation, are often discouraged by needing to download a full DVD, or do troublesome and slow http/ftp installation. - Server users are generally more technical people, it would be beneficial to attract more of these to the openSUSE project. - More people using openSUSE on home servers would likely have spill-over effects on SLES sales. - An openSUSE server cd, would be an excellent response to Ubuntu server edition and Microsoft Home Server. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/?rm=feature_show&id=305664

[openFate 305582] Off-Line one click install (MSI for Linux)
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 25 May '17

25 May '17

Feature added by: Duncan Mac-Vicar <dmacvicar(a)novell.com> Feature #305582, revision 1, last change by Title: Off-Line one click install (MSI for Linux) openSUSE-11.2: New Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Duncan Mac-Vicar <dmacvicar(a)novell.com> Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Idea from community member Raul Romero. Same concept as MSI packages for Windows but exploiting the One Click Install concept of openSUSE (and therefore inheriting the simplicity, code and security. Basically a compressed file which includes a repository inside, plus one click install information, and a script to trigger the oneclickinstall handler with the data as payload in the script. Therefore is a collection of rpms that can be installed detailed description is here http://en.opensuse.org/OSI There is already a prototype working. Example script: http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/363315/MozillaFirefox.osi This requires some extra features in one click install and other pieces * ability to force OneClick to add the repo (the one inside the compressed file) Additionally I see other features: * ability to suggest an update repo for the installed bundle * support from build service to generate bundles * easy way to generate them locally Out of scope but interesting: * Ablity to trigger a YaST workflow (its own control.xml?) Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: This solves the business case of distributing service packs, applications, codecs bundles by just downloading a big file, 100% offline, supporting dependencies and repo signatures. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/?rm=feature_show&id=305582
