[New: openFATE 312407] switch off boot.clock
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 16 Jan '12

Feature added by: Ludwig Nussel (lnussel) Feature #312407, revision 1 Title: switch off boot.clock openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Ludwig Nussel (lnussel) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Nowadays the timezone and a potential local/utc offset are applied in the initrd already. The only task left for boot.clock is to adjust the clock drift. That's a rather advanced feature not known nor appreciated by the standard auto logging in user. Network installs have ntp enabled anyways. Therefore boot.clock should be switched off by default to have one less script to execute. Anyone who needs the clock drift feature can insserv boot.clock manually. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: faster boot -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/312407

[New: openFATE 311074] Enhance Education Repository
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 13 Jan '12

Feature added by: Lars Vogdt (lrupp) Feature #311074, revision 1 Title: Enhance Education Repository Hackweek VI: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Lars Vogdt (lrupp) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Right now, openSUSE have quite few scientific and educational packages. To give openSUSE more presence on universities and research centers at "final user" level, it would be necessary to review the current packages in the Education and science repositories and check for updates and new packages that are currently not on the list. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: The Education and Science Sector is one of the most important sectors to reach new and enthusiastic users. We should offer a bunch of applications for this users fulfilling all their needs and as result, we can increase the number of openSUSE users in a very special, but also interesting and important area. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/311074

[New: openFATE 313057] Automatically enable new version branch as target
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 11 Jan '12

Feature added by: Robert Schweikert (rjschwei) Feature #313057, revision 1 Title: Automatically enable new version branch as target Buildservice: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Robert Schweikert (rjschwei) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: We should automatically enable the new release branch as a build target for all projects that build against factory when we branch. For all projects that build for new version -1 and factory. This avoids the hassle of maintainers having to go in and turning this on explicitly. My guess would be that there are fewer maintainers that do not want this behavior than there are maintainers that want this behavior. The other alternative would be to add yet another setting to the meta data of a project that says "build-new-target-on-release-branching" then maintainers can choose this depending on their preference. I don't think we need such a flag, but it gives control to project maintainers. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/313057

[New: openFATE 308473] Context menu to switch between sheets
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 05 Jan '12

05 Jan '12

Feature added by: Kohei Yoshida (kohei_yoshida) Feature #308473, revision 1 Title: Context menu to switch between sheets Requested by: Kohei Yoshida (kohei_yoshida) Description: In Excel (see the attached screenshot), right-clicking on the sheet arrows brings up the context menu. Supporting a similar context-menu in Calc would be beneficial as well. Especially when there are lots and lots of sheets in a single document, it's not very convenient to go through all those sheets to get to the right one. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/308473
