Do files in update/9.0/patches directory on your favorite mirror qualify for this role?
No, they don't! I'm sorry to say that seems to me you have not read what we were discussing about before saying what you have you said. We were talking about lack of information about problems or bugs for which SuSE has not made a patch available, not those for which there is a patch. Sometimes they are reported here, sometimes there is a report in the SDB - like the ntp problem that started this thread - but there is not a list of known problems for each distro that you can check when installing (during at least its two year lifespan) for problems you should be aware of and correct manually or automatically - and those needing manual action are the most important, the automatics are done by YOU already. -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
