You are right that software should do a better job of "just working", but you should probably not try to meddle in basic system design. Instead, openSUSE, if it's going to declare that dazuko is not a proper design and will not be supported, should probably just remove all rpm's and dpendancies rather than have broken ones in the repo's. And place an explanation in the release notes.
Let MS do on-access scanning. The fact that it needs to is just part of why that os sucks. We do not need to emulate it.
Completely true, however, there is a minute problem. It does not scale. Nice for SOHO-solutions, but forget about it when you're over 50 users. Scanning does takes place but drains all the cpu and all other users who do something (like ls) on a smb/cifs mounted directory just HANG! On access scanning (once, after download completes and before it is moved to the users home-dir) is the best solution. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
