[opensuse] Why is Leap x86_64 only?
All, Why is Leap x86_64 only? What is the technical reason openSuSE cannot build i586 packages as well. I would expect to see the "We don't want you anymore" kiss-off to i586 from the bleeding edge distros well before openSuSE. Arch (the bleeding edge) still packages i686 on the 4.2 kernel, so it isn't a "can't be done issue". Why now? -- David C.

All,
Why is Leap x86_64 only? What is the technical reason openSuSE cannot build i586 packages as well. I would expect to see the "We don't want you anymore" kiss-off to i586 from the bleeding edge distros well before openSuSE. Arch (the bleeding edge) still packages i686 on the 4.2 kernel, so it isn't a "can't be done issue". Why now?
Because those who maintain Leap are not interested in maintaining 32 bit version and nobody stepped in to do it. Please see (not so old) factory archives for long discussion. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Perhaps visit opensuse-factory where Leap is discussed. Better yet, visit opensuse-factory archives as there was quite extensive ?debate? about arch which surely does not need to be revisited. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 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

Re Leap. Methinks that it would be best renamed at this point in time to 'Leap of Faith' if it still has the current form of Plasma 5 with its Settings (and ?Utilities) listing(s) containing everything but the kitchen sink and the itemised contents of the dishwasher -- not to mention the absence (still!) of the ability to give different desktops each a different wallpaper, like it is now possible in oS 13.2 using KDE 4.14.9. If 'Leap of Faith' is released in its current form I then most sincerely hope that openSUSE 13.2 will become the bestest release of openSUSE and it, too, will be maintained and become the ESR which you say 13.1 is. (I cannot help but have this vision that 'Leap of Faith' will become the Windows Vista and Windows 8 of oS, and if it is allowed to be done and people are willing to spend time maintaining it that openSUSE 13.2 would then become the Windows XP (around and loved for ~13 years) of the Linux world.

If history is any indication, NO, it is not too soon. The sooner the better. I'm going to fire up a virtual machine and give it a try tomorrow.

I have also been waiting a bit. The machine I can use for this is one that I need to use. Not in a production sense. But in a "I need to use this computer" sense. What is the opinion about the state of Leap? Is it possible to move to the final install from the current Beta without doing a re-install?

When you ask a question as the one you just did, you need to state which version of openSUSE you are using when posting your message. But if you read my post carefully, I am not "writing it off" because the final version is still to be released in the first week of November. There is still time to make adjustments - or at least advise everyone that changes *will* be made post release of Leap. Expressing one's concern about a distribution one has loved and used for many years does not equate to "writing it off". Criticism of adopting wrong directions is often taken by the unimaginative and anal retentive people doing the adopting as requiring the need to "shoot the messenger" or putting fingers into the ears and crying, "I cannot hear you!" :-) .

Ah, speaking of BTRFS then be advised that 'Faith' will, by default, format partitions in BTRFS *and* XFS when it decides where to install 'Faith' on your computer. Pay CLOSE attention when the Install reaches the part where it wants to install Leap and how it wants to format the partitions it wants to create. And before you, or David, allows Patrick to chastise you for not following discussions in Factory (or Project) I will tell you that the default use of BTRFS *was* discussed there but it was more akin to the statement at the UN that Iraq had WMT and no matter how one argued against the proposition you had no chance of sanity prevailing 'cause the decision was already made :-D .

No offence, in any shape or form, taken, M :-) . But I am still waiting for "In-coming!" from the Howitzer brigade (America is still in "Noddy land" and Europe is in the middle of having their lunch and about to start their afternoon siestas) :-) . Another way to see what one will get in Leap is to run Tumbleweed KDE Live where you will see Plasma 5 in all of its gory - er, sorry - glory :-) . But about the comment that, "...the time is now to influence how the next release turns out.". Sorry wrong! 'Leap of Faith' is due out in first week of November - that's only 4 weeks away. There can be no major changes to the distro. at this point in time - it's just too late for that and which is why I mentioned makding it known that changes will be made after the release. Discussions were held in Factory and Project but not everybody subscribes to these lists and so the number of people who can discuss changes is limited. Besides, not everybody reading those lists participates, and those who do dare to make a comment are sometimes considered as "trouble makers".

Yes, I do believe that both BTRFS has been available for openSUSE for a while now - even though there are NO utilities to edit this filesystem - and XFS has certainly been available for quite some time now (well before BTFRS) but neither have been *DEFAULT* file systems to be used until 'Leap'.

(Also @ Andrei) Oh, OK. I've been installing 13.2 so many times that I do things automatically which is that I simply ignore what the partitioner wants to do with my system and use the Expert option. But I do pay attention when it comes to installing a new version of oS - like this Leap of Faith - especially when the first attempt to install it on my *MAIN* system (never, ever, again!) as another operating system destroyed a partition on my second HD containing all my Data.
