Feature added by: Tristan Miller (psych0naut) Feature #308562, revision 1 Title: Leafnode Package Wishlist: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Tristan Miller (psych0naut) Description: Leafnode (http://leafnode.sourceforge.net/) is an easy to use NNTP server for small networks. It was previously packaged with openSUSE but seems to have been removed in the 11.2 distribution. As many popular newsreaders, such as KNode, do not support offline news reading, it is necessary to use Leafnode. Please start packaging Leafnode again in the official distribution. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/308562

Feature added by: Andrew Jorgensen (ajorgensen) Feature #311106, revision 1 Title: USB-bootable NET install image openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Andrew Jorgensen (ajorgensen) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: The LiveCD iso images can be dd'd to a USB disk and booted directly without any other modification. I often want to USB-boot the NET install image. I know I can start a NET install from the Live image but the download is larger and can't be installed to a smaller USB disk. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/311106

Feature added by: Petr Vanek (subik) Feature #309356, revision 1 Title: Include Qore language in the official repository Package Wishlist: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Neutral Requested by: Petr Vanek (subik) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Would it be possible to include Qore programming language in the official repository? I'm working for a company - Qore creator - and we are strongly interested in this area just because we are using OpenSuse as a main platform for our business. We have RPMs packages ready in the OBS: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/misc/ and we are ready to maintain it with the full cooperation with OpenSuse developers with release cycles on mind. More info: http://qore.org/ http://www.qoretechnologies.com/ Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: Qore in the main repo should make easier life for our customers and Qore users worldwide. Although it looks like Qore is an unknown language, we know it's used (mainly in the enterprise area) not only by our customers, but by independent 3rd party users too. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/309356

[openFATE 308135] Upgrade Performance Co-Pilot (PCP) package
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 02 Aug '17

02 Aug '17

Feature added by: Martin Hicks (mohicks) Feature #308135, revision 1 Title: Upgrade Performance Co-Pilot (PCP) package Package Wishlist: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Martin Hicks (mohicks) Description: OpenSuSE currently ships a fairly dated PCP package (2.5.0). It would be nice if a more modern version of PCP was included. Version 3.0.0 has just been released by the community. Part of the effort to move from 2.9.x to 3.0 was to update some of the packaging to split the libraries out of the core package and to create various -devel packages. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/308135

[New: openFATE 309024] Inclusion of swftools
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 02 Aug '17

02 Aug '17

Feature added by: Matthew Ayres (Solar_Granulation) Feature #309024, revision 1 Title: Inclusion of swftools Package Wishlist: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Matthew Ayres (solar_granulation) Description: As the project website says: "SWFTools is a collection of utilities for working with Adobe Flash files (SWF files). The tool collection includes programs for reading SWF files, combining them, and creating them from other content (like images, sound files, videos or sourcecode). SWFTools is released under the GPL." Of course many say that Flash is becoming obsolete, but it is still widely used and very popular. Not only is it used in web desgin, but also as a platform for Multitouch development. Swftools, being open and stable, would make an excellent addition to the openSUSE standard repository. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/309024
