[openFate 305099] please have yast do a fsck before attempting to mount existing filesystems
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 28 Jan '15

Feature added by: Arvin Schnell <aschnell(a)novell.com> Feature #305099, revision 1, last change by Title: please have yast do a fsck before attempting to mount existing filesystems openSUSE-11.2: New Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Per Jessen <per.jessen(a)enidan.com> Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: I was doing a new install, but wanted to keep my /home filesystem (JFS). No problem, except that the filesystem wasn't clean and needed an fsck. As far as I can tell, yast didn't do this, so mounting of the /home filesystem failed, which caused the entirely installation process to abend and start over. Discussion: #1: Stefan Hundhammer <sh(a)novell.com> (2008-02-21 06:26:43) I'd really hate to have my 100+ GB ext3 partitions fscked. That takes forever. #2: Per Jessen <per.jessen(a)enidan.com> (2008-02-21 07:15:33) Even when they're clean? It's done on every bootup anyway. See /etc/init.d/boot.localfs #3: Jozef Uhliarik <juhliarik(a)novell.com> (2008-02-21 08:21:41) What is your opinion Thomas? #4: Thomas Fehr <fehr(a)novell.com> (2008-02-21 08:24:13) That would need an feature request, not a bug report. #6: Stephan Kulow <coolo(a)novell.com> (2008-02-21 12:04:27) I think it's not too uncommon that people reinstall their system _because_ the old one had a problem, so dirty file systems may not be too uncommon. #7: Thomas Fehr <fehr(a)novell.com> (2008-02-25 03:00:03) What the customer described happens on JFS, this is an unsupported filesystem exactly for the reason that it behaves quite fundamentally different to most other filesystems. Filesystems like ext3 or reiser simply do their log reply when they are dirty and all is fine. So if you want such things to be added, please specify it as a feature request. Since there needs to be an interactive user interface to the filesystem check program this is in no way a simple change. Or would you prefer for example do a rebuild of reiserfs internal tree as default without asking the user first? Problem is that the questions the filesystem check tools ask the user are quite special and of course totally different for different filesystem types. #8: Duncan Mac-Vicar <dmacvicar(a)novell.com> (2008-07-17 08:13:00) I happen to suffer from this bug too once. I think the bug is not that the installation cleans the disk, but at least say that is not clean instead of crashing (in my case it was an installation where yast thought the disk was mounted but it was not) #9: Arvin Schnell <aschnell(a)novell.com> (2008-07-17 08:22:23) No time for 11.1. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/?rm=feature_show&id=305099

[New: openFATE 310285] don't close yast-pkg after do the actions

In my opinion, a command to execute actions is not a command for quit module. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/310285

[New: openFATE 310177] Yast Package Management - return to the search window after installing packages
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 28 Jan '15

Feature added by: Ashwin G (ash25) Feature #310177, revision 1 Title: Yast Package Management - return to the search window after installing packages openSUSE-11.4: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Ashwin G (ash25) Description: Currently in the GUI based Yast's Package management tool, after you select some packages to install and you click Install, it performs the download and installation. After it is complete it closes the application and comes out. Instead it would be good if again the search box to install further packages is displayed after installing few packages, i.e. go back to the initial view in the application again. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/310177

Feature added by: Adrian Schröter (adrianSuSE) Feature #315077, revision 1 Title: Project Link: option to inherit flags from linked projects Buildservice: Evaluation by engineering manager Milestone: 2.5 Priority Requester: Important Projectmanager: Desirable Requested by: Adrian Schröter (adriansuse) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Setups in which entire projects gets rebuild on each change struggle with the problem that the flags of the linked project are not taken into account. We need to introduce a flag in the link definition to optionally take over the flags, eg: <link project="openSUSE:1.0" meta="true" /> backend: needs to take it into account api: stores flag and take care on flag state calculation webui: are there places where webui has still own logic for calculating flag states? -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/315077
