I just noticed today that the gmane.linux.suse.opensuse.user group is
missing from gmane.org - did the project request the list be removed from
gmane?
Just wondering if it was intentional or if something went wrong somewhere.
Thanks,
Jim

I am seeing this with an openSUSE 12.1 system at home, and also a
Factory system at work:
% host download.opensuse.orgdownload.opensuse.org has address 195.135.221.134
download.opensuse.org has IPv6 address 2001:67c:2178:8::13
And then, when running zypper patch or zypper up, I see
Retrieving: repomd.xml [error]
Download (curl) error for
'http://download.opensuse.org/update/12.1/repodata/repomd.xml':
Error code: Connection failed
Error message: Failed to connect to 2001:67c:2178:8::13: Network is unreachable
Alas, my provider nor that network at work support IPv6. Still, my
system has IPv6 enabled since roaming around on different networks,
IPv6 may be present, or even necessary there.
(This does not happen all the time, sometimes if I retry a bit later
the system uses IPv4 and everything works.)
Now, is this just a setup problem and I should simply and
unconditionally disable IPv6?
Or are some parts of our update or network stack in need of
some adjustments?
For the time being, unless this is just me running into this,
should we disable IPv6 on download.opensuse.org?

Hi all,
we, the french openSUSE community, are working on a location proposal
for the openSUSE Conference 2014. The core team is complete while we're
still working on the exact location. Candidate cities are currently
Bordeaux, Nantes and Paris.
The application is not full yet but we thought it was important
to let you know we are working on it.
Sincerely yours,
Alexis Guéganno

Hi all,
I am Periklis and this summer I'll be coding a new campaign for the
hedgewars project. The campaign it's going to be about a space trip
adventure, so if you like hedgewars and space trips stick around and
check my progress :)
At the moment I am working on adding more functionality (regarding the
stats displayed to the players) to the hedgewars' lua api which is
used by the campaign.
I am also shaping the campaign's story line a little bit more. I am
going to expose more details and discuss it further with hedgewars'
community in a few days.
You can check my latest progress in my hedgewars clone here:
https://code.google.com/r/pntanasis-hedgewars/
You can reach me in the #hedgewars channel on freenode if you want to
contact me. My nickname is Master_ex.
I'll start sending more detailed reports as the coding period starts.
Thanks,
Periklis Ntanasis

Hello lizards,
This might not be the right place to send this mail, but since I'm not
subscribed to factory list (and I don't plan to suscribe), I would like
to send here this idea. Please share it with factory or anyone else.
For the past 3 releases we have language installation problem. If
someone choose to install openSUSE, for example in Greek, the result
will be half Greek and half English (picture: blue is in Greek and other
is in English [1]). Although many people reported this bug to bugzilla
[2] and [3], nothing changed. openSUSE 11.4 was the last release that
worked fine (even from the very first screen by pressing F2 button).
A proposal would be to change the fist screen of YaST installation,
where it prompts for language. Change it to ONLY English.
When everything is set, I see 2 solutions.
1. PCLinuxOS has an icon on the desktop (adlocale) that prompts you to
install your language settings. I guess it's an easy script.
2. GNOME has GNOME initial setup [4]. You can also read an article about
it [5]. The idea is that after the installation, you get a prompt to
setup online accounts, timezone, new user account, small tour about
GNOME etc. By the way, although it says that we'll see it on GNOME 3.8,
I didn't see it on Milestone 4.
The language installation can be done via YaST after installation
(that's the solution we propose here).
But it's better to be done automatically after installation.
Something should be done about it since it's major issue to promote
openSUSE.
Marketing cannot cover end users. End users also don't read release notes.
Many of my friends (that I helped to install openSUSE), they turned it
to Linux Mint or Ubuntu (I guess for the simplicity they provide).
Fedora and Ubuntu work fine with the language thing.
Please do something about it.
Thanks for reading.

Hi all,
Here is a summary of the current progress of git-review.
The biggest changes are,
1. Now git-review supports sending pull requests from a forked repo to
its upstream. In order to do that, simply use `git-review create
--upstream`.
2. Since Github's pull request is based on branch, if there already
exists a pull request for the current branch, git-review will remind
the user, instead of silently update the pull request and throw an
mysterious error.
3. Git-reivew now uses GLI to handle all its command line options
parsing. This make the code simpler and more robust.
An coming feature would be to allow user comment on issues directly
from the command line.
Cheers,
Xu

Hello,
The openSUSE Evergreen team would like to announce that openSUSE 13.1
will be the next Evergreen release. This means that openSUSE 13.1 will
continue to be supplied with security updates and important bugfixes
until it has had a total life time of at least three years.
The openSUSE Evergreen team expands the lifespan of openSUSE releases by
issuing security- and stability fixes after the usual 18 months. The
team has kept selected releases maintained for an additional one and a
half to three years. The first Evergreen release was openSUSE 11.1.
Current releases in the Evergreen maintenance program are openSUSE 11.2
to be maintained until november 2013 (a total of 4 years) and 11.4 to be
maintained until July 2014 (reaching over three).
Find more information about Evergreen and how to keep your openSUSE
release alive on the Evergreen wiki page:
http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Evergreen
on behalf of the whole Evergreen team

My thanks and congratulations as well. I think it makes opensuse a more
valuable and useful distro.

I agree that is one of the last hurdles to making Evergreen a full fledged
part of opensuse.
The current process is to delete 11.4 main / update as targets via an
semi-automated process, then add Evergreen 11.4 as a target via a purely
manual process.
I don't know the logic behind that, but if is to continue, when 13.1 hits
18-months (2 years from now) can both a drop repo 13.1 and an add repo
Evergreen 13.1 go out via the automated SR system simultaneously?
Assuming it is too early to answer, just treat this as my vote for that.
(Would this be something to put in fate?)
