Feature changed by: ursan marius bogdan (creatura85) Feature #312750, revision 7 Title: Make Yast2 stay open after installing packages openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: ursan marius bogdan (creatura85) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: As we all know YaST2 is the best control center around and as title says, can we make it even better by keeping it open after one or more packages are installed? (just like Synaptic for e.g.). I know this can be done adjusting some setting http://dl.dropbox.com/u/10573557/SUSE%20Misc/yast-at-close-action.jpeg but i was thinking if it is possible to make it a default setting for versions to come. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: This feature will reduce the time of opening the package manager for any operations: install, delete and upgrade. Discussion: #1: Elmar Haag (hans_linux) (2011-08-20 08:41:37) - Start Yast -> Software Managment - Select application to be installed - Click "Apply" button "Summary of changes" Window opens - De-select "close software manager when done" (Tick Box on left of lowest text line) #2: Rosanne DiMesio (dimesio) (2011-08-20 14:34:19) (reply to #1) The button on my screen says "Accept" not "Apply", and I do not get any "Summary of changes" window when I click it; Yast just starts installing the package(s). There is no "close software manager when done" tickbox anywhere that I can see. This is in KDE, so I am using the qt interface. #3: James McDaniel (jdmcdaniel3) (2011-08-20 15:53:32) (reply to #2) <P>I normally set this for summary which would be my suggestion. I voted yes, but it is not much trouble to change this setting,if you know where to look.</P> #4: Rosanne DiMesio (dimesio) (2011-08-21 02:55:11) (reply to #3) IMO, "summary" would be a more sensible default than "close", but even that would not help KDE users. I changed the setting to "summary" in /etc/sysconfig so now I do get a summary page after the packages have been installed, but in the QT interface there is no checkbox to keep the package manager open. + #5: ursan marius bogdan (creatura85) (2011-08-21 11:45:54) (reply to + #1) + Thanks for the info Elmar; i know to adjust it but as i said, i was thinking + in terms as a default option activated by the distro developers :) -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/312750
