Hi, that actually explains a lot. Is there nothing that can be done against that guy? SUSE / openSUSE should be registered trademarks... Cheers MH Am 30.07.2014 um 14:54 schrieb Jürgen Weigert:

A person by the name of Timothy M Butterworth pulls web content from our activedoc.opensuse.org <http://activedoc.opensuse.org> server and offers books. I believe he is not affiliated with suse or the openSUSE project in any way. He adds 'official' to the title to appear more -- well -- official. The original book in this case is called

openSUSE: Virtualization with KVM

We did not put 13.1 in the title, as the book still needs to be updated for 13.1 -- with 11.4 there was a package PolicyKit that brought in a polkit-auth command. That package no longer exists in 13.1 -- packages are structured differently now. I cannot tell if you also need a different command now, or just need to know the right package.

By adding '13.1' to the title he triggers false assumptions. Sorry for this!

cheers, JW-

The title looks strange but see below for a link on the document.
