OpenSuSE being open, cant the community stand together and change the package manager to something that works? Or am I misinformed about the open source process?
Well, all distros end up having to make some decisions about what is in and what is out, and having some control of that.
I suspect that in order to get rid of zmd/rug etc and revert to Yast/YOU you would have to fork it and call it HvdW Linux which would be CaPiTaLiZeD just as weirdly as SuSE to the english speakers... ;-)
