[New: openFATE 309082] Overall progress bar for zypper up

Feature added by: Matt Williams (Milliams) Feature #309082, revision 1 Title: Overall progress bar for zypper up openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Matt Williams (milliams) Description: It would be nice if zypper displayed a progress bar (or progress report of some kind) for zypper up type commands. Currently it is very difficult to discern where in the upgrade sequence it is and therefore approximately how long is left. Even if a percentage is difficult, a (packages remaining)/(total pacakges) number would be useful. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/309082

Feature added by: John Shand (jshand2008) Feature #310400, revision 1 Title: Bug Fix for Package Removal openSUSE-11.4: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: John Shand (jshand2008) Description: I installed monodevelop and it pulled in log4j. after updating the packages for monodevelop i can no longer remove log4j without it pulling in crimson and log4j-mini. even though this is a minor bug, it can be a bit of a nuisance. i have also tried reverting the monodevelop package back to the versions as default, and it didn't remove the above package. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/310400

[New: openFATE 310098] Integrate KNemo with NetworkManager

Feature added by: Roman Bysh (Romanator) Feature #310098, revision 1 Title: Integrate KNemo with NetworkManager openSUSE-11.4: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Roman Bysh (romanator) Description: My recommendation is to integrate KNemo with NetworkManager. KNemo which provides interface, network and download statistics. The NetworkManager is missing these features. We can have the best of both worlds in a single package that would use a single applet and icon. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/310098

[New: openFATE 310088] integrate webkit in evolution for html mail
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 04 Nov '10

Feature added by: Thiago Sayao (sayao) Feature #310088, revision 1 Title: integrate webkit in evolution for html mail openSUSE-11.4: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Thiago Sayao (sayao) Description: Most people i know uses Outlook for mail. When i receive HTML mail on evolution sent by outlook it does not always looks as when it was sent. Since webkit seems lightweight and renders HTML very well i think it would be suitable for adding this feature to evolution. I wish emails were text only, but it seems microsoft changed that and we have no choice :) Use Case: John sends a very nice formatted html mail to Maria on MS Outlook 2010. Maria opens the email and sees an ugly distorted mail. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/310088

Feature added by: Thiago Sayao (sayao) Feature #309698, revision 1 Title: polish and add features to beagle search openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Thiago Sayao (sayao) Description: I don't find the beagle search interface very good. I think it needs a "facelift", maybe something as described on this page: http://beagle-project.org/Beagle_UI_Hackfest (outdated) Maybe some Novell designer could look into it? -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/309698

[New: openFATE 310238] Restore KDE3 as part of OpenSUSE
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 04 Nov '10

Feature added by: Ilya Chernykh (Ansus) Feature #310238, revision 1 Title: Restore KDE3 as part of OpenSUSE openSUSE-11.4: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Ilya Chernykh (ansus) Description: I suggest to restore KDE3 as part of OpenSUSE distribution and include the possibility to install KDE3 into installer. OpenSUSE is a distribution which is known for its tolerance towards different desktop environments such as Gnome, KDE, LXDE and gives the widest DE choice possibilities than any other distribution I know. This is specially important in the light of KDE4 being still unstable and of beta quality: Plasma still crashes, spatial mode in Konqueror is still broken and multiple features still missing. Inclusion of KDE3 in OpenSUSE could help attract multiple users of other Linux distributions which have discontinued KDE3. KDE3 is still widely used and popular environment, much more so than some others already included in OpenSUSE. It also helps easier migration from Windows as it offers familiar and classical interface. I cannot imagine a school teacher, office worker or a bureaucrat using KDE4. One of the reasons against KDE3 inclusion was that some claim it is discontinued upstream. But a look at the KDE3 svn shows it is still supported and bugfixed: http://websvn.kde.org/branches/KDE/3.5/ The last commit being only 6 days ago. Since our 11.2 release multiple features were improved, including crash-proof, debugging, karchive, vcards, kmail, kcommander, kaffeine and the help system. There is another branch of KDE3 development, a project known as Trinity, hosted in the same SVN repository, which aims on adding new features to KDE3 and continuous development. While this project gives hope of the future of KDE3, I currently would not recommend including their packages in OpenSUSE, and suggest to stick with the above-mentioned vanilla branch. Maintainig KDE3 currently would not require much resources, since the most difficult step - adapting KDE3 to co-existence with KDE4, moving it to another namespace, renaming packages, is already accomplished by the efforts of Novell and the SUSE team. Most other distributions could not cope with this challenge, but this titanic effort is already in the past for OpenSUSE. That would be even more unreasonable to drop KDE3 just after the bridge is left behind. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/310238
