[New: openFATE 312581] Define destination file name for source service download

Feature added by: Justin Yaple (yaplej) Feature #312581, revision 1 Title: Define destination file name for source service download Buildservice: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Justin Yaple (yaplej) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: To build my package I need to download two files with specific names. Unfortunately svn hosted at sourceforge.net when I download the tar files both have a name of "trunk" this is because of the path used to download them. <services> <service name="download_url"><param name="path">viewvc/opennop/daemon/trunk/?view=tar</param><param name="host">opennop.svn.sourceforge.net</param></service> <service name="download_url"><param name="path">viewvc/opennop/module/trunk/?view=tar</param><param name="host">opennop.svn.sourceforge.net</param></service> </services> To fix this you should add an optional parameter named "destination" or something like that so we can specify the destination filename. Then I can stop manually uploading the tar files after renaming them manually. Thank, -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/312581

Feature added by: Ahmed Rashed (ahmed_rashed) Feature #313172, revision 1 Title: Education li-f-e as a base template SUSE Studio: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Ahmed Rashed (ahmed_rashed) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: I liked Education li-f-e so much. But it is not 64 bit os, which restricts some of my favourite programs. As a workaround, I wish you provide an "Education li-f-e" base template in suse studio which supports both 32 and 64 bit architectures. This way I can build upon the Edi li-f-e and all its fine tuning which make it much more suitable for beginners trying to use Linux. If this is very difficult, I hope you could provide a kiwi or auto yast configuration with all the packages installed in EduLi-f-e file to be imported in my suse studio appliance.

[New: openFATE 313376] mac like 'open file/url' behaviour

Feature added by: Cameron Blackwood (drkorg) Feature #313376, revision 1 Title: mac like 'open file/url' behaviour SUSE Studio: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Cameron Blackwood (drkorg) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: What command opens pdfs (it keeps changing)? tiffs? xls? On mac osx: open fred.pdf opens a pdf viewer open http://google.com/ opens the url in a browser etc Linux seems to have xdg-open (found via google and http://stackoverflow.com/questions/264395/linux-equivalent-of- the-mac-os-x-open-command ) which wraps the kde/gnome/whatever commands to do this and is installed on opensuse. Could we get xdg-open aliases to open by default? Being able to go 'open fred.pdf' and have the correct program open up would be great for new users. Open seems to currently be 'not found' and it would seem to make sense to import this feature from osx. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: open whatever.ext gives you: * simplicity for new (and old) users * similar ui experience to osx all for one command line alias. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/313376
