How to reach Bugzilla-admin? Not getting bug updates, e-mail cannot be changed?
by David C. Rankin 22 Oct '24

openSUSE/SUSE members, How can I reach the bugzilla-admins? I have tried since July to have the drankinatty(a)suddenlinkmail.com e-mail changed to drankinatty(a)gmail.com since the suddenlinkmail.com address does not exist anymore. I have sent 3 e-mails to bugzilla-admins(a)suse.com explaining the circumstance in detail and have not had a single response. The requests were on: July 19, 2024 August 27, 2024 October 6, 2024 I filed another bug last night against openssl, https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1231817, and we are stuck in the same boat again. I can't get updates or Need Info requests from bugzilla. The UCS system does not have the ability to change a dead e-mail as it attempts to send the confirmation to the dead e-mail and fails. Is there any other way to contact the bugzilla admins? This just seems like something that should not take months to get fixed? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

Agama Github page seems to be broken?

When I follow the link from the Leap 16.0 Download page to the Agama GitHub page I don't see anything about Agama, just some sort of generic GitHub menu. A screenshot is attached. Leslie -- Platform: Linux Distribution: openSUSE Leap 15.6 - x86_64

MC bug - sourcing /usr/share/mc/mc-wrapper.sh no longer exits to cwd?
by David C. Rankin 21 Oct '24

21 Oct '24

All, On Tumbleweed, the current midnight commander no longer exits to the current working directory when sourcing /usr/share/mc/mc-wrapper.sh. This has worked .. forever, but for some reason setting the alias: mc='. /usr/share/mc/mc-wrapper.sh' and running mc and navigating to a new folder, exiting mc exits back to the original folder where mc was launched instead of the current working directory. Can someone confirm, and if so, I'll write the bug. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

Why did the xauth file location changed in 15.6
by Marc Chamberlin 20 Oct '24

20 Oct '24

Hello SuSE gurus - I recently upgraded a few of my OpenSuSE 15.4 x64 systems to OpenSuSE 15.6 x64 (yes with an intermediate upgrade to 15.5) and a number of my custom scripts and software broke. FWIW I am using KDE with the X11/plasma desktop. I tracked the problem down to a change in location of the xauth_xxxx file that gets created. In 15.4 this file was located at /run/user/1000/xauth_xxxxx as shown below - > > env | grep XAUTH > XAUTHLOCALHOSTNAME=quasar > XAUTHORITY=/run/user/1000/xauth_VMlqlf In 15.6 this file got moved to /tmp as shown below - > > env | grep XAUTH > XAUTHLOCALHOSTNAME=wa7pxw > XAUTHORITY=/tmp/xauth_NrHHAf Why? Is it possible to change 15.6 back to use the previous /run/user/1000 location, and if so how? Or am I going to have to change all my scripts and rebuild software that depended on the old location?

Enabling 'Fortunes' on openSUSE Tumbleweed
by -pj 19 Oct '24

19 Oct '24

Hi, I would like to enable fortunes on openSUSE TW. There is a file and I do not have it in my head right now that has a few lines commented out by default in TW. I am not sure about LEAP being the same. Can you tell me what the file is? Is there a good document about fortunes in Tumbleweed also? -Best Regards

Insert key
by gumb 17 Oct '24

17 Oct '24

Just a passing curiosity, rediscovering an old 80s/90s trait of overtyping using the Insert key, I thought it could be a nifty time-saver given the amount of text selection and editing I do in general daily computer usage, but it doesn't work in all apps. In Plasma I can use it for instance in KWrite, and it works within LibreOffice, but it won't work when renaming a file in Dolphin. It's also redundant in Thunderbird or Firefox. Is there a setting somewhere that enables this universally or is it a complex thorny issue? gumb
