25 May '17

Feature added by: Cornelius Schumacher (cschum) Feature #306613, revision 1 Title: Krest Requested by: Cornelius Schumacher (cschum) Description: I have worked on some infrastructure for creating C++ bindings for RESTservices in the context of the Kode project. kxml_compiler already supportscreating data model classes from XML examples. The missing piece is a tool toguide creation of these classes and associated transport bindings according tothe needs of the developer. The goal would be to implement a guided bindingcreation by example in contrast to the usual approach of taking a full formalspec of transport and format. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/306613

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

Feature added by: Cornelius Schumacher (cschum) Feature #306607, revision 1 Title: Xing client lib Requested by: Cornelius Schumacher (cschum) Description: Xing is said to have some API to access the data about yoursocial network. It would be great to have a client lib, which allows to get holdof this data for further usage on the desktop, e.g. putting it in youraddressbook, or connecting it to the data of other social networks. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/306607

[New: openFATE 309995] libzypp: generate posix portable character set filenames
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 25 May '17

25 May '17

Feature added by: Ned Ulbricht (ned_ulbricht) Feature #309995, revision 1 Title: libzypp: generate posix portable character set filenames openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Ned Ulbricht (ned_ulbricht) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Background: Currently, libzypp automatically generates file names for .repo files in /etc/zypp/repos.d , and corresponding directory names in /var/cache/zypp/{packages,raw,solv}/ . From a very quick look at the source, it seems that the names are generated from the repo alias, with "/" translated to "_" , but no other translations. Desired Feature: Automatically generated file and directory names should be constructed using only the POSIX portable filename character set. http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/000095399/basedefs/xbd_chap03.html#tag_… The repo alias should be groomed with undesirable characters stripped or translated before file and directory name generation. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: Quick rationale: Spaces in filenames are EVIL!!!!!! Extended rationale: libzypp should not make assumptions about the filesystem where files and directories may be stored. Some filesystems may choke on the filenames that are currently auto-generated. Further, many tools and scripts which iterate over files and directories implicitly presume that file/directory names don't contain weird characters. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/309995

[New: openFATE 312308] make yast gtk gui more complete
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 25 May '17

Feature added by: Jean-Daniel Dodin (jdd) Feature #312308, revision 1 Title: make yast gtk gui more complete openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Jean-Daniel Dodin (jdd) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: The yast2 qt interface have (at least) one very usefull function that is not found in the gtk interface: when there is a problem in an install, being able to force reinstall of all the already installed packages is very handy. In qt, it's enough to clic right and select update all the selected. so I would be fine to have the same in gtk (I just had a corrupted kde4 install and could only run gnome) -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/312308

[New: openFATE 312272] Move /sbin/lsinitrd, /sbin/lsmod, /sbin/lspci, /sbin/lspcmcia to %_bindir
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 25 May '17

25 May '17

Feature added by: Johannes Obermayr (jobermayr) Feature #312272, revision 1 Title: Move /sbin/lsinitrd, /sbin/lsmod, /sbin/lspci, /sbin/lspcmcia to %_bindir openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Mandatory Requested by: Johannes Obermayr (jobermayr) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: lsinitrd, lsmod, lspci, lspcmcia are located in /sbin and so only root can access them. The 'ls' prefix indicates that these programs only list some information which should be accessible by all users. lsusb is in %_bindir (=/usr/bin). If you were consequently lsusb also would have to be in /sbin or /usr/sbin ... Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: There absolutely is not any sense for having programs just providing information in /sbin. How do you want to help people if you need for example lspci's output and then people complain: "Absolute path to 'lspci' is '/sbin/lspci', so running it may require superuser privileges (eg. root)." Can you give me root's password? (security, security, security, ...) -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/312272

[New: openFATE 312307] Add usb_modeswitch and splix packages to live CD`s
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 25 May '17

Feature added by: Vasil Yakauleu (vasilbelarus) Feature #312307, revision 1 Title: Add usb_modeswitch and splix packages to live CD`s openSUSE.org: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Vasil Yakauleu (vasilbelarus) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: My point of view is that CD`s(not DVD`s) should contain all packages required to install the system, to setup internet connection (then users can download all they need) and to support as maximum hardware as possible. Therefore, I think that packages 1)usb_modeswitch (usb_modeswitch-data and tcl as dependencies)= about 5,5Mb to provide a possibility connect to the internet for people with UMTS/3G wireless WAN devices. 2)splix= 3,4Mb to provide better support for SPL printers should be added to live CD`s. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/312307

Feature added by: Eduardo Sotomayor (Easgs) Feature #308846, revision 1 Title: Option to "download only" rpm files in cache openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Eduardo Sotomayor (easgs) Description: In yast, there is the option when setting up software repositories to keep rpm files in cache after a software installation, it would be good to have too an option "Download only", with this option you will be able to get a program with all its dependencies ready to install later in a computer without internet without affecting the current system. This option is available in ubuntu apt-get with the option -d -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/308846
