[New: openFATE 308465] Filter for Fold View Widget & Dolphin

Feature added by: John Moore (Johnfm3) Feature #308465, revision 1 Title: Filter for Fold View Widget & Dolphin openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: John Moore (johnfm3) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: The ability for a user to filter for files that the user or a group has permissions too. Perferably the group that the user is a member of. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: In my example, I have 7 users that are joined to 4 groups (stored in LDAP) kids, preteens, teens, parents. On a NFS share, I have 105 movies, but 15 movies the members of the kids group can watch. Parents can watch all 105 movies. Its hard for members of the kids and preteen groups to quickly pick out which movie they can watch when there is 105 videos to browse thru. This gets worst when you add a Large Music collection of over 20,000. Move this to a small business enviorment, and you have a large public share that only has a small percentage of files that pertain to you. In the ideal world, the Administrator would have different shares for different groups, but in the work place things grow and dont get properly managed and relocated. When things do get move, users get pissed when things arent where they were. So typicly public shares get left alone and keep growing. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/308465

[New: openFATE 316815] AppArmor profile for Skype
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 26 Jun '17

Feature added by: Tristan Miller (psych0naut) Feature #316815, revision 1 Title: AppArmor profile for Skype openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Tristan Miller (psych0naut) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Skype is probably the most popular VOIP and videoconferencing software. Unfortunately, it is proprietary, and is known to violate users' privacy -- AppArmor reports it touching all sorts of files it has no business reading, such as files in the user's Firefox or SeaMonkey profile directories. Please consider producing and maintaining an AppArmor profile for Skype in the openSUSE distribution. User-contributed profiles such as the ones in the wiki (http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Skype#Privacy_and_security) become nonfunctional with new Skype releases. It's not trivial to produce working AppArmor profiles for Skype (I wasn't able to do it myself after an hour or so or trying) but perhaps some knowledgeable openSUSE security developer could apply her expertise to creating an officially supported profile. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/316815

Feature added by: Niels Abspoel (aboe76) Feature #314445, revision 1 Title: Update puppet and puppet-server openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Niels Abspoel (aboe76) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: With the 12.2 release puppet is at 2.7.6-4.1.2 while puppetlabs is stable at 2.7.19 This is the same version as in Factory. I've tested the packages from the factory repo and they work without a problem on suse 12.2. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: Puppet is a very good opensource configuration management system and with an up to date package, more people will use it on OpenSuse and create more modules for this distribution. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/314445

Feature added by: Carlo Strata (carlo_strata) Feature #310982, revision 1 Title: Please add Lightspark as a standard avant-garde/forefront browser flash player Buildservice: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Carlo Strata (carlo_strata) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: I think Lightspark https://launchpad.net/lightspark is an avant-garde/forefront browser flash player with modern hardware support design and written from scratch. We could find it only on Packman repository, but both gnash and swfdec are in standard OpenSuSE repository (swfdec in Packman one too and in a more recent version). Are there too some language (flash, swf files) legal troubles? Carlo Use Case: Browser safer and efficiently with this plugin. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: If we could live free, but with a modern design plugin it's better. I'm tired to live with my CPU at least at 45% load with 64 bit flash player "Square" p3: http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10_square.html -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/310982

[New: openFATE 314730] useradd -s should accept shell basename
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 26 Jun '17

Feature added by: Ned Ulbricht (ned_ulbricht) Feature #314730, revision 1 Title: useradd -s should accept shell basename openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Ned Ulbricht (ned_ulbricht) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: This proposed feature is one possible way to deal with Bug 796242 - "pcsc-lite: preinstall scriptlet adds user scard with bad path for nologin shell". Currently, the absolute location of the executable for system users' shells is coded into rpm preinstall scriptlets scattered across packages throughout the distro. I propose centralizing that knowledge into useradd. Thus, for instance * useradd -s nologin newaccount * useradd -s dash newaccount would both be acceptable and would result in a lookup of the correct executable path before user account creation. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/314730
