Example, msmtp needs GNU SASL in order to support kerberos (gssapi) auth. Since openSuSE does not include GNU SASL libraries the msmtp package has binaries compiled with the SASL option disabled so only PLAIN, CRAM MD5 and DIGEST MD5 are enabled. If libgsasl7 and libgsasl7-devel were packaged then msmtp could have all auth options enabled -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/309758

[New: openFATE 309560] upgrade groff to 1.20

Feature added by: Christopher Yeleighton (yecril71pl) Feature #309560, revision 1 Title: upgrade groff to 1.20 openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Christopher Yeleighton (yecril71pl) Description: Please update groff to 1.20. Quoting Werner Lemberg: Since this topic is possibly of broader interest, I'm CCing this mail to the groff mailing list. It's nothing new, but... > GROFF VERSION: 1.18 This version is far too old. The current one is 1.20.1. > OS: openSuSE 11.2 Sigh. If you don't need Japanese support for man pages, install the current version of groff instead of relying on a version which is eight (!) years old. Test Case: echo '.PP Zażółć gęślą jaźń.' | groff -k -fUT -ms Use Case: To be able to roff documents in other scripts than Western. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/309560

Feature added by: Sławomir Lach (Lachu) Feature #310061, revision 1 Title: DE intependend dialog program. openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Sławomir Lach (lachu) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Create dialog program with many backend: QT, GTK+, ncruses, WxWidgets. It should prefer to communicate via terminal. Behavior could been changed by environment, like PREFERED_UI="KDE4:GNOME" or WINDOWMANAGER="metacity". It could also working as session deamon. Make it also extensible, allowing to return information about supporting feature by backend and using something similar to namespaces. Test Case: Runing scripts written to use this tool in different ways. Use Case: I'm programmer and I need to create simple tool to comunicate by user. I can realize this by multidialog tool ;-) . Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: Recognition we need to use zenity, kdialog or dialog is noisy and all this tool communicates in other way. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/310061

[New: openFATE 308456] improve nomad/xrdp to allow to attach to physical x11 session
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 04 Nov '10

04 Nov '10

Feature added by: Nassim Salem (nsalem) Feature #308456, revision 1 Title: improve nomad/xrdp to allow to attach to physical x11 session openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Nassim Salem (nsalem) Description: Nomad/XRDP is a great tool that allows for high performance remote desktop to an opensuse desktop. The tool was first introduced in opensuse 11.1. The tool however lacks functionality when compared to Windows RDP. Nomad allows us you to create a new session on a remote desktop and then disconnect and reconnect to that same session. It will not however connect or attach to an existing physical X11 session on that remote machine. The only tools that allow one to do this are x11vnc and nx with shadow option but both are terribly slow. Having this capability would be awesome and would bring it on par with what Windows users have. Use Case: This is an issue for users that physically work on a machine locally for example at work and have number of long running processes and many apps open and lock the session and go home and then want to connect to that same machine at work from home. Nomad will connect them to either a new session or a different session than they have at work. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/308456
