That is a private repository under home.
I know that - actually I wrote that in my mail.
For such a fix to become official, the owner of that repo has to a) make a submit request to the update repo of a distribution (in this case openSUSE:12.1:Update:Test) and a) set the bugzilla entry relating to the bug to NEEDINFO maintenance@opensuse.org. After that it may need pinging maintenance to raise awareness.
Can you see if the maintainer did this, as his repository now is located here: https://build.opensuse.org/project/show?project=openSUSE%3AMaintenance%3A280 And what does the "locked" state in the "monitor" page mean?
opensuse it is kind of confusing up to frustrating to see a bug "closed fixed" and to not get an official update for it.
Closed fixed does not neccessarily mean fixed for that distribution!
Thats what I mean when I say confusing or at least frustrating. I know this attitude from other bugs that affected me, but to be honest I don't understand it. As far as I can see bugzilla.novell.com is part of the opensuse project. It is meant to be used by opensuse users to report bugs. When someone reported a bug and reads "fixed", the one tends to assume that this bug is fixed in the opensuse distribution context. Not in the context of the developer who fixed the problem, not in an upstream package context, not even in the context of a possibly upcoming release. From an external user point of view the bug is fixed when an update is available.
BTW, wouldn't it be easier for you to use the german ml at opensuse-de@opensuse.org for your questions?
I'm not even subscribed to the german list. Ralf -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
