[New: openFATE 308896] Add option to automatic update to install all updates, not just patches

Feature added by: Tim Edwards (tk83) Feature #308896, revision 1 Title: Add option to automatic update to install all updates, not just patches openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Tim Edwards (tk83) Description: The Automatic Update configuration configurable through YAST->Online Update Configuration currently only installs patch updates. An option should be added to install all updates (ie. this would run 'zypper up' without the '-t patches' option). (This new option should be off by default to avoid changing the current behaviour too much.) -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/308896

[openFATE 306439] Include Eucalyptus in 11.2
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 25 May '17

Feature added by: Andrew Wafaa (FunkyPenguin) Feature #306439, revision 1, last change by Title: Include Eucalyptus in 11.2 openSUSE-11.2: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Andrew Wafaa (funkypenguin) Description: Please could we include Eucalyptus in the next release? For thos unaware of Eucalyptus please see their homepage (http://www.eucalyptus.com/) , and for those that are too lazy to do that - Eucalyptus is an Open Source alternative to Amazon's EC2 Cloud computing offering. This is the very product that Ubuntu are using for their " Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud (http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/serveredition/cloud/UEC) ". I am not advocating a "jump on the bandwagon" or "keeping up with the jones'" attitude. I am however advocating empowering our distribution and community with the necessary tools to stay ahead of the pack. I can also see several instances where the openSUSE project could potentially benifit from implementing our own cloud - it's no secret that there are some infrastructure constraints, and going down the Utility/Grid/Cloud/$Current_Buzz_Word computing may help things. For those that question whether there is a demand for it, I will admit there may not be a huge demand at the moment. The key thing is if we can market it right (in co-operation with Eucalyptus) we can get a much bigger uptake on both products - even our darling SLE cousin can join in the fun ;-) -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/306439

[New: openFATE 309367] Suggest packagekit to quit when it conflicts with yast sw_single

Feature added by: Atri Bhattacharya (badshah400) Feature #309367, revision 1 Title: Suggest packagekit to quit when it conflicts with yast sw_single openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Mandatory Requested by: Atri Bhattacharya (badshah400) Description: In response to zypper sending a quit signal to packagekit when packagekitd conflicts with its operation as outlined in Bug 580513 (bugzilla.novell.com) the same should be implemented for the software management module in YaST since it is more visible there and novice users who are most likely to be confused by the conflict in question usually use the GUI more than the command line interface of zypper. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/309367

[openFATE 306899] Porting OSC to Symbian platform
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 25 May '17

Feature added by: Andrew Wafaa (FunkyPenguin) Feature #306899, revision 1 Title: Porting OSC to Symbian platform Hackweek IV: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Andrew Wafaa (funkypenguin) Description: My intention is to try and port the great Build Service's OSC tool to the Symbian platform. This will enable users to keep on top of Build Service tasks even whilst on the move. I will use PyS60 to create the installable package and use the latest code available in SVN. The only aspect that I forsee users not being able to do is to actually do a local build, but all other functions should work without issue. Use Case: I'm sat in a cafe enjoying the scenary with a croissant and cup of coffee and I receive an e-mail from Hermes advising of a submit request on a project that I'm the maintainer of. I can then accept/decline the request there and then, rather than having to ssh into my machine at home and do it. It will also be possible to create new packages etc directly from my device. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/306899
