[New: openFATE 323988] Add "Switch system packages" command to ncurses package manager
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 04 Sep '17

04 Sep '17

Feature added by: Tristan Miller (psych0naut) Feature #323988, revision 1 Title: Add "Switch system packages" command to ncurses package manager Requested by: Tristan Miller (psych0naut) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: In the GUI version of the YaST2 package manager (sw_single), selecting a repository from the "Repositories" tab shows a "Switch system packages to the versions in this repository" command. This command is missing from the ncurses UI and should be added. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: Though switching packages can also be accomplished using zypper on the command line (zypper dup --from [repository]), it would help, for consistency's sake, if the ncurses package manager could also do this. This way, when writing instructions for people, it's not necessary to give two different vendor-switching workflows, depending on what UI they are using. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/323988

Feature added by: Erik Luijten (luijten) Feature #307747, revision 1 Title: autokey Package Wishlist: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Erik Luijten (luijten) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: I very much would like the autokey package (currently only on Ubuntu) to be included in openSuSE. URL: http://autokey.sourceforge.net/ Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: There seems to be no other general keyboard macro/textexpansion utility available for Linux, even though this is an important productivity tool. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/307747

[New: openFATE 323964] Device Plain List/Device Graph switcher in Disk-Map window of openSUSE installer
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 29 Aug '17

29 Aug '17

Feature added by: Mikhail Kasimov (k_mikhail) Feature #323964, revision 1 Title: Device Plain List/Device Graph switcher in Disk-Map window of openSUSE installer openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Mikhail Kasimov (k_mikhail) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Hello! Nowadays, when user installs openSUSE, he has only the plain list of disk partions (volumes, subvolumes) only (see http://paste.opensuse.org/31657927). And this list seems to be not user-friendly. Personally, it's rather hard to perceive the solid list. And, if user wants to see the map of just-made disk partitions, he should do: 1) Push 'Expert Partitioner' button. 2) Switch to 'Device Graph' option. That's rather long way. What I offer to do: 1) Make switcher (radio-button) 'Device Plain List/Device Graph', which will fix this long way. 'Device Plain List' option will display the traditional disk partitions list, which we can see now. See http://paste.opensuse.org/3171435 'Device Graph' will take info from 'Device Graph' menu, when user pushes 'Expert Partitioner' button. See http://paste.opensuse.org/11672540 2) Fix current buttons location mess ('Create', 'Edit', 'Expert'), doing them in plain horizontal. Thanks! Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: This will make Disk Partitions List in openSUSE installer more convenient to user and will make disk-info displaying more user-freindly with minimum of mouse-moves. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/323964

[openFATE 312557] Yast DNS Server module: DNS Views Support
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 22 Aug '17

22 Aug '17

Feature changed by: Joachim Plack (jplack) Feature #312557, revision 10 Title: Yast DNS Server module: DNS Views Support - openSUSE 12.1: New + openSUSE 12.1: Rejected by Joachim Plack (jplack) + reject date: 2017-08-22 08:23:39 + reject reason: openSUSE-12 has retired Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Irving Leonard (irvingleonard) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: yast2-dns-server doesn't have VIEWS support This package provides an administration interface to bind DNS server. It is very usefull but doesn't support views (DNS VIEWS). There are situations where it is a show stopper. References: yast2-dns-server haven't VIEWS support https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=686385 Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: I consider the views manage feature could be great for this module. I have knowledge about a lot of WANs that use DNS VIEWS. This feature can make the difference in the selection of the OS for DNS servers in this case. Simply a GREAT idea. Discussion: #1: Bob Martens (boblmartens) (2013-11-06 06:47:15) I would love to see this added into the YaST module as well. Would make the DNS server portion of SUSE/openSUSE a lot more useful. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/312557

[New: openFATE 323933] Update android-tools

[New: openFATE 323929] Support Ansible in yast-configuration-management
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 21 Aug '17

21 Aug '17

Feature added by: Robin Roth (robinroth) Feature #323929, revision 1 Title: Support Ansible in yast-configuration-management openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Robin Roth (robinroth) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Ansible is quite commonly used for configuration management. It also supports "pull" and can thus be used for initial deployments and we use it together with autoyast. Therefore there should be support to use ansible with the new configuration_management setup. Potential arguments: <configuration_management> <type>ansible</type> <pull_url>https://my.server.example.com/repo</pull_url> <pull_key></pull_key>  <playbook>autoyast.yml</playbook> </configuration_management> It's probably a good idea to also have a field extra_args to pass more command line options to ansible. This idea was originally proposed at https://github.com/yast/yast-configuration-management/issues/9 and then moved here. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/323929

[New: openFATE 308428] kuickshow for KDE 4
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 16 Aug '17

16 Aug '17

Feature added by: Tristan Miller (psych0naut) Feature #308428, revision 1 Title: kuickshow for KDE 4 Package Wishlist: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Tristan Miller (psych0naut) Description: Kuickshow is a popular image viewer for KDE. Versions are available for both KDE 3 and KDE 4. Previous versions of openSUSE included it among KDE 3 applications. However, openSUSE 11.1 and openSUSE 11.2 do not include the KDE 4 version. Please add a kuickshow package for KDE 4. The KDE 4 version of Kuickshow can be downloaded from its official KDE home page at http://userbase.kde.org/KuickShow (http://userbase.kde.org/KuickShow) See also KDE bug 188539: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=188539 (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=188539) -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/308428

[New: openFATE 323913] Add several nvidia driver versions to repo
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 15 Aug '17

15 Aug '17

Feature added by: Ben Suttor (big_mama) Feature #323913, revision 1 Title: Add several nvidia driver versions to repo Package Wishlist: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Ben Suttor (big_mama) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Please add several older nvidia driver versions to the nvidia driver repository. Unfortunately newer nvidia drivers can also introduce new bugs which make them unusable. However when the driver is updated through Yast, there is no way to revert back to an older version, except through the "hard way". In order to keep the system clean it would be best to avoid this. Several older driver versions available on the repo, like the last three versions, should make it possible to revert back to a functional version in most cases. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/323913
