how to prevent /etc/profile.d/ files from returning
by David T-G 13 Apr '22

13 Apr '22

Hi, all -- I'm running Leap 15.2 (and this has been happening for a while), and after a round of updates I have to go back to /etc/profile.d and wipe out files that I don't want (alias.bash + ls.bash in particular). Different from adding my own run commands to profile.local.sh thereunder, I want to NOT get the stock stuff. Is there any way to keep them from being dropped again so that I don't have to deal with this over and over? *sigh* TIA & HAND :-D -- David T-G See http://justpickone.org/davidtg/email/ See http://justpickone.org/davidtg/tofu.txt

Safely remove Apparmor?
by DennisG 22 Feb '22

22 Feb '22

I don't use Apparmor (installed by default), so I would like to remove it. There is an Apparmor Pattern which when deleted will remove package patterns-base-apparmor, but many apparmor packages remain. It appears all the apparmor packages (except for libapparmor1, a dependency for systemd) can be individually deleted by YaST, which is what I would prefer. Is that safe to do? TIA! --dg 15.3/Plasma

picture upload to openSUSE-wiki
by Axel Braun 22 Feb '22

Hello, I'm trying to include a picture into an article on the openSUSE-Wiki. I go to the upload box, select a local file (.png, with rw access), confirm that it is my work and hit 'upload'. Result: Something went wrong The path at which the stashed file should have been found was invalid. Are special authorisations required to upload pictures? Cheers Axel

Hi, after weekend I updated my work TW machine, and MS Teams doesn't start anymore... No message in console, just white square on screen and not working tray icon... I'm on KDE if it matters... Any idea what could go on? -- Vojtěch Zeisek https://trapa.cz/ Komunita openSUSE GNU/Linuxu Community of the openSUSE GNU/Linux https://www.opensuse.org/

Best practices for automatic updates
by Axel Braun 17 Feb '22

17 Feb '22

Good morning, I would like to learn about best practices on how to automate updates for Leap and trigger a reboot if required. I understand transactional update & rebootmgr should only be considered for MicroOS. In general, a one-liner like zypper up -l -y && shutdown -r 0 could be triggered by cron job (or systemd-timer). In case there are conflicts this will most likely get stuck. I feel for a server an update should be triggered manually, dependng on requirement and available time-window Another option, mainly for desktop systems, could be a similar script that runs as part of the shutdown process. Any other suggestions/comments? Thanks Axel
