Can someone confirm?)
We should most certainly not be recommending or using Factory to users as a part of resolving a bug.
No, but if it's fixed in factory, then the question becomes about backporting the fix and/or properly identifying that it has been fixed in factory. It's not a productive use of a developer's time to fix something that's already been fixed. :) Jim -- Jim Henderson Please keep on-topic replies on the list so everyone benefits -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org
