Feature added by: Hendrik Vogelsang (hennevogel) Feature #309554, revision 1 Title: Exaile Package Wishlist: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Hendrik Vogelsang (hennevogel) Description: http://www.exaile.org/ Exaile is a music player aiming to be similar to KDE's Amarok, but for GTK+ and written in Python. It incorporates many of the cool things from Amarok (and other media players) like automatic fetching of album art, handling of large libraries, lyrics fetching, artist/album information via Wikipedia, Last.fm submission support, and optional iPod support via a plugin. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/309554

Feature added by: Mingxi Wu (Mingxi_Wu) Feature #308280, revision 1 Title: wqy font integration Package Wishlist: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Mingxi Wu (mingxi_wu) Description: Current fonts used in openSuSE for chinese users uming is somehow out of date. Most other distros like Ubuntu now use wqy as a replacement, and give a use better look&feel. wqy font is already existing in BuildService now, so there is no techinal problem for the integration. So I recommend wqy as a default font for Chinese users in openSuSE 11.3 -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/308280

[New: openFATE 309203] make sure harddrives with 4KiB sectors are handled correctly

Feature added by: John Lombardo (tempusfugit) Feature #309203, revision 1 Title: make sure harddrives with 4KiB sectors are handled correctly openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: John Lombardo (tempusfugit) Description: More and more harddrives with 4KiB physical sectors are showing up in the wild. Partitioned incorrectly starting on the traditional sector 63 these drives exhibit very poor performance. The linux partition toolchain is being updated to handle these drives correctly, make sure to ship up-to-date versions of the tools in question and teach yast to make the best of it. A complete overview of the issue and best practices can be found in this wiki article by kernel hacker Tejun Heo: https://ata.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/ATA_4_KiB_sector_issues -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/309203

[New: openFATE 313375] Have zypper clean cached packages intelligently

Feature added by: Donovan Cameron (saultdon) Feature #313375, revision 1 Title: Have zypper clean cached packages intelligently openFATE: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Donovan Cameron (saultdon) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: When you tell zypper to clean the cached packages with the command: zypper clean This removes ALL cached packages. Over time, zypper will keep all versions of a package RPM file. This can result in a bloated /var/cache/zypp folder. It would be nice to be able to remove all OLD cached packages and keep the latest one, or even have more functionality like being able to specify how many previous versions (to control rollback ability when using the --force flag). Or if it finds that a package is the only one, just keep it. Pseudo code example: If package is installed then If package names are the same keep the newest version Else if package has no matches do not delete Else package is no longer installed delete cached package -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/313375
