[SLE] Summary of 10.1 Issues and Solutions or Work-Arounds?
Hi, [ This is a re-send of the same message I inadvertently sent to SuSE-Programming-E this morning. Sorry for the misdirection and repetition. - RRS ] I have not had the time to closely follow the seemingly voluminous postings on the issues that appear in the 10.1 release. (To the extent it has distinct problems, I'm most interested in the commercial distribution from Novell, which I've purchased and plan to install, first in a Parallels virtual machine on a MacBook Pro portable). I was wondering if there was a summary somewhere of what issues exist, which installation or configuration options trigger them and what is the current state of availability of fixes and / or work-arounds. Is there, perhaps, a Wiki entry or some "Cool Tips" on the Novell or openSUSE.org Web sites that hold this information? Or perhaps someone has an independent Web page or pages on these issues? The openSUSE.org Support Database (SDB) appears to have nothing. There appears to be no mention of problems on the openSUSE installation page nor on the Users' FAQ and How-To's pages. Some general Internet searching turned up some blog rants, but nothing that would help me avoid (or fill) the potholes. I should say I'm not in a hurry about this. If the solutions have yet to be devised or released, I'll wait, but before I do go ahead and attempt an installation, I'd like to have available a compendium of the problems in the stock distribution and what can or cannot be done about them.

The following URL's cover most of the problems associated with the package management software. There are a number of other pages on the wiki that may be of interest but take a while to locate. Package Management http://en.opensuse.org/Package_Management Using 10.1 http://en.opensuse.org/Using_10.1 Bugs:Most Annoying Bugs http://en.opensuse.org/Bugs:Most_Annoying_Bugs Libzypp/Issues http://en.opensuse.org/Libzypp/Issues I strongly recommend using smart for package management at the present time. http://linux01.gwdg.de/~pbleser/rpm-navigation.php?cat=/System/smart -- Regards, Graham Smith -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq@suse.com
