[New: openFATE 309370] Get ride of SuSEconfig.gtk2

Feature added by: Thorsten Kukuk (kukuk) Feature #309370, revision 1 Title: Get ride of SuSEconfig.gtk2 openSUSE-11.3: New Priority Requester: Mandatory Requested by: Thorsten Kukuk (kukuk) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: There are a few packages which needs a SuSEconfig.gtk2 run afterwards. Currently they touch "run-gtk" and the next SuSEconfig run will execute the script. But the problem is, that only YaST2 calls SuSEconfig afterwards, zypper and rpm do not. As result, if you install gtk based applications the first time with zypper or rpm, this ones are often broken and don't work. The workaround is, that all this applications get a %run_suseconfig macro. This is very error prone, and makes the installation slower than doing it right from the beginning and let the post install of this packages, which really installs a plugin, register it correct. As all the bug reports with SLE11 SP1 shows, the current solution is not maintainable in any ways. We need to get ride of this hack. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: Make gtk applications work out of the box again and not depending on a special Novell hack not supported by most of our own RPMs and 3rd party RPMs. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/309370

Feature added by: Ludwig Nussel (lnussel) Feature #312320, revision 1 Title: don't install postfix by default anymore openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Ludwig Nussel (lnussel) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: postfix slows down system boot and runs on every installation even though it's not actually needed anymore on the average desktop. Even mutt can send mails without local mta nowadays. Therefore we shouldn't install postfix anymore by default. cron may need adjustments to report output of cron jobs via other means such as syslog. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/312320

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Requested by: Mingxi Wu (mingxi_wu) Description: Current fonts used in openSuSE for chinese users uming is somehow out of date.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
