05 May '17

Feature added by: Ludwig Nussel (lnussel) Feature #323349, revision 1 Title: common data source for yast2-country Requested by: Ludwig Nussel (lnussel) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: yast2-country has built in tables for console fonts, keyboard maps, default time zones etc. Live images for openSUSE have to duplicate that information. We should refactor the data into a common package that can be used by both the live images and yast. Example of such a data file from the live image: $ cat /etc/langset/es_ES RC_LANG: es_ES.UTF-8 CONSOLE_FONT: lat9w-16.psfu CONSOLE_SCREENMAP: trivial CONSOLE_UNICODEMAP: CONSOLE_MAGIC: (K KEYTABLE: es.map.gz YAST_KEYBOARD: spanish,pc104 COMPOSETABLE: clear latin1.add TIMEZONE: Europe/Madrid CONSOLE_ENCODING: UTF-8 Apply: -layout es -model microsoftpro -option terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp XkbLayout: es XkbModel: microsoftpro XkbOptions: terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/323349

[New: openFATE 323347] FreeIPA support for (open-)SUSE

Feature added by: Mikhail Kasimov (k_mikhail) Feature #323347, revision 1 Title: FreeIPA support for (open-)SUSE openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Mikhail Kasimov (k_mikhail) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Hello! Possibly, once upon a time, this be in (open-)SUSE official repos, who knows... So, the idea is to add FreeIPA support for (open-)SUSE distro to have possibility to install FreeIPA server and/or client software from (open-)SUSE official repos and work with it via YaST (possibly, some current YaST modules will be modified for that, especially authentication modules). [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FreeIPA [2] https://www.freeipa.org/page/Main_Page [3] Some info from ALT Linux distro (https://www.altlinux.org/FreeIPA) which also has FreeIPA support as like as Fedora in its repo: I can install to via 'apt-get install' command as well as 'yum install' on Fedora. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: To make work with FreeIPA "from-the-box" easy for (open-)SUSE admins. Anyway, SUSE scheme is RedHat-based (e.g. /etc/sysconfig/, SUSE Manager is familiar to RH's one and supports both native SUSE servers and RH servers and so on). So, having the FreeIPA support (especially as a client, for example) seems to be an adequate idea. Thanks! -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/323347

[New: openFATE 322036] Move logrotate.status to /var/lib/misc
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 19 Apr '17

19 Apr '17

Feature added by: Thorsten Kukuk (kukuk) Feature #322036, revision 1 Title: Move logrotate.status to /var/lib/misc Requested by: Thorsten Kukuk (kukuk) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: logrotate.status is in /var/lib. Which is a problem if the root filesystem is read-only like for CASP. Making /var/lib read-write is impossible without breaking snapshots, rollback and transactional updates on all products, not only CASP. According to FHS/LSB, no application is allowed to create single files in /var/lib anyways, the correct directory is /var/lib/misc. Which is writeable. So the logrotate.status file should be moved. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/322036
