I noticed that mgdiff was dropped out of 12.2 and 12.3... What was the intended replacement? Thanks... -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

There it is, in the non-oss repo..
mgdiff has openmotif dependency and due to licensing it was decided that anything depending on openmotif should be in non-free see bnc#761360 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

---- Oi... I thought non-oss meant things were not opensource -- so the full sources weren't usually available. Didn't it used to mean that? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

I thought non-oss meant things were not opensource -- so the full sources weren't usually available.
Iirc, it used to mean "license encumbered" rather than "free as in beer", and had *nothing* to do with the availability of source code. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
