[New: openFATE 308455] Easy way to refresh package database
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 15 Nov '10

15 Nov '10

Feature added by: Todd R (TheBlackCat) Feature #308455, revision 1 Title: Easy way to refresh package database openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Todd R (theblackcat) Description: Currently, if you want to force a refresh of your package database from within the software management module or online update module you needto go to the configuration menu, load the repository manager module, tell it to refresh, then close the repository manager module. Having an easy way to force a refresh of the software database from within the software management module would be much more convenient. It could easily go in the "File" menu without cluttering things much, there are currently only 4 items there as it is. I know that ideally the package manager would know when to refresh what, but it doesn't always so it would be very convenient if users had a quick way to force it to. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/308455

[New: openFATE 308458] Include Google Akonadi resource package for KDE 4

Feature added by: Todd R (TheBlackCat) Feature #308458, revision 1 Title: Include Google Akonadi resource package for KDE 4 openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Package Wishlist: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Todd R (theblackcat) Description: Since August there has been an Akonadi resource that allows KDE users to sync their google calendars with their KDE korganizer calendars and sync their google address book with their KDE kaddressbook. It is an extragear program, meaning it is hosted on the official KDE servers. However, it is not present in any of the official openSUSE KDE repositories. Considering how common use of Google calendars and gmail seems to be, I think it would be very useful to people to provide an official package for the software. Here is the release announcement: http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/4049 -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/308458

[New: openFATE 309440] Support C project on KDevelop4
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 15 Nov '10

Feature added by: Andrey Karepin (EGDFree) Feature #309440, revision 1 Title: Support C project on KDevelop4 openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Andrey Karepin (egdfree) Description: KDevelop - powerful IDE for development on C/C++ (Qt), PHP and other languages. Unfortunately in 4 versions support of creation From projects (only With ++ (Qt)) and PHP (plug-in) has disappeared. The previous versions of this development environment had support of C. In the absence of this probably it is necessary to use Eclipse or Kate. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/309440

[New: openFATE 310029] Provide link to live CD to USB on main download page
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 15 Nov '10

15 Nov '10

Feature added by: Jimmy Berry (boombatower) Feature #310029, revision 1 Title: Provide link to live CD to USB on main download page openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Jimmy Berry (boombatower) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: The live CDs on http://software.opensuse.org reference the fact that they can be placed on a USB instead of a CD, but there does not appear to be a link to any instructions on how to do so. I think adding a link to something like http://en.opensuse.org/Live_USB_stick (http://en.opensuse.org/Live_USB_stick) would be an excellent addition. Use Case: Users who wish to try out SUSE and don't want to burn a CD don't have to go fishing around and googling about how to place on USB. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: Easier to get ahold of suse and make use of the feature allowing it to be placed on USB drive. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/310029

Feature added by: Birger Kollstrand (MrKane) Feature #308273, revision 1 Title: Community repositories" should be default selction when adding repository openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Mandatory Requested by: Birger Kollstrand (mrkane) Description: Currently the default selection in Yast->Software Repositories->Add is the Specify url" choice. >From a usaability point the "Community repository" should be default choice. 1. It is easier for a newcommer to selct in a list, rather than typing in a url. 2. I would guess that a large portio of the users would like to add excisting repositories in that list anyway. http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=549362#c1 (http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=549362#c1) -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/308273

Feature added by: Sascha Manns (saigkill) Feature #307256, revision 1 Title: openSUSE Developer Network openSUSE-11.2: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Sascha Manns (saigkill) Description: Hello Mates, today i get an Idea for our Project. We can create an new Project like MSDN (Microsoft Developer Network) specially for OpenSUSE. I thought we can make an DowloadSite (1-Klick) for needed Software. Another Tab includes the API RReferences from KDE4, GNOME and other Stuff. In the Tab Learning we can include some HowTo's for Programming. That's just an thought. Maybe you like it...

[openFate 305725] Use gettext for gconf schemas translations
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 15 Nov '10

15 Nov '10

Feature added by: Vincent Untz (vuntz) Feature #305725, revision 1, last change by Title: Use gettext for gconf schemas translations openSUSE-11.2: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Vincent Untz (vuntz) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: The translations of all the descriptions of gconf keys in schemas are already in the gettext files of the application. Removing them from the schemas would make the packages smaller and would possibly improve gconf performance in normal usage (ie, outside of gconf-editor, where the descriptions are used). Martin Pitt and I talked about this, and Martin has implemented it for Ubuntu: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/123025 -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/?rm=feature_show&id=305725
