Or in other word, this is not arbitrary stuff "from the Internet" and thus the user can confidentiality go for it. If you just say "from the Internet" many a lot user will surely stay away from this option.

Yes, we actually can make the check-box selected by default for oneCD-installation and enabled unselected by default for DVD-installation but that would be a new feature for product control file. These parts would be affected: - Documentation - Control file (control.xml + oneCD.patch) - Control file handler (YCP module, yast2.rpm) - Installation (YCP client, installation.rpm) That seems to be quite a lot, for already-frozen installation don't you think so?

[yast-devel] System Update: Add Internet Repos...
by Karl Eichwalder 09 Aug '07

09 Aug '07

In the "Installation Mode" dialog, you can select "Add Internet Repositories Before Installation". What's about this option, please? I think there is a Fate entry, but I cannot find it right now... Is this about repos the user added on his own? Or is this about some default "Internet Repositories"? What does this mean at all, "Internet Repositories"? Even if I do not enable "Add Internet Repositories...", in the update case YaST, later on, lists "Previously User Repositories". This all is very nice, but isn't it a bit confusing to the user? -- Karl Eichwalder R&D / Documentation SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nuernberg) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: yast-devel+help(a)opensuse.org

[yast-devel] RFC: showy2log ported to perl, 20x speedup of pretty-print, some changes
by Olaf Dabrunz 06 Aug '07

06 Aug '07

Hi, the pretty-print functionality of "y2tool showy2log -v", which shows lists and maps in YaST log files in a readable way, is quite slow on logs with long and complicated lines. On my current, fast machine it can take some, 5, 10, 15 minutes or more to run through the log file produced by a YaST2 installation. On my previous machine it could even take up to 2 hours. I ported showy2log from awk to perl. My testing shows an average speedup of about 20 times with the new implementation. I suggest replacing showy2log in yast2-devtools with the new implementation. What do you think? There are two changes from the previous implementation: - the pattern match against the YaST component in a log line seems to have been broken; the new showy2log now matches against the correct part of a log line - the accepting pattern match against the whole log line would only work if an accepting pattern match against the log level and/or the YaST component was used as well; this is fixed The new showy2log can be found as an attachment to this mail. Comments please. :) Regards, Olaf P.S. if you wander what "pretty-print" does: it shows data in a line like this: 2007-05-29 11:30:40 <1> linux(3288) [YCP] StorageDevices.ycp:448 localProbe: all_disks [$["bios_id":"0x80", "bus":"IDE", "bus_hwcfg":"ide", "class_id":262, "detail":$["channel":0, "host":0, "id":0, "lun":0], "dev_name":"/dev/sda", "dev_names":["/dev/sda", "/dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_FUJITSU_MHN2300_NH64T2114M4K", "/dev/disk/by-id/ata-FUJITSU_MHN2300AT_NH64T2114M4K", "/dev/disk/by-path/pci-0000:00:11.1-scsi-0:0:0:0", "/dev/disk/by-id/edd-int13_dev80"], "dev_num":$["major":8, "minor":0, "range":16, "type":"b"], "device":"MHN2300A", "driver":"pata_via", "driver_module":"pata_via", "model":"FUJITSU MHN2300A", "old_unique_key":"MUqY.6Z5mBUxKxnC", "parent_unique_key":"+Y+h.mcsZ0a690T4", "resource":$["disk_log_geo":[$["cylinders":3648, "heads":255, "sectors":63]], "size":[$["unit":"sectors", "x":58605120, "y":512]]], "rev":"7256", "sub_class_id":0, "sysfs_bus_id":"0:0:0:0", "udi":"/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/storage_serial_SATA_FUJITSU_MHN2300_NH64T2114M4K", "unique_key":"z70z.IHepsuGPoS8", "vendor":"FUJITSU"]] in a readable way like this: 2007-05-29 11:30:40 <1> linux(3288) [YCP] StorageDevices.ycp:448 localProbe: all_disks [ $[ "bios_id":"0x80", "bus":"IDE", "bus_hwcfg":"ide", "class_id":262, "detail":$[ "channel":0, "host":0, "id":0, "lun":0 ], "dev_name":"/dev/sda", "dev_names":[ "/dev/sda", "/dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_FUJITSU_MHN2300_NH64T2114M4K", "/dev/disk/by-id/ata-FUJITSU_MHN2300AT_NH64T2114M4K", "/dev/disk/by-path/pci-0000:00:11.1-scsi-0:0:0:0", "/dev/disk/by-id/edd-int13_dev80" ], "dev_num":$[ "major":8, "minor":0, "range":16, "type":"b" ], "device":"MHN2300A", "driver":"pata_via", "driver_module":"pata_via", "model":"FUJITSU MHN2300A", "old_unique_key":"MUqY.6Z5mBUxKxnC", "parent_unique_key":"+Y+h.mcsZ0a690T4", "resource":$[ "disk_log_geo":[ $[ "cylinders":3648, "heads":255, "sectors":63 ] ], "size":[ $[ "unit":"sectors", "x":58605120, "y":512 ] ] ], "rev":"7256", "sub_class_id":0, "sysfs_bus_id":"0:0:0:0", "udi":"/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/storage_serial_SATA_FUJITSU_MHN2300_NH64T2114M4K", "unique_key":"z70z.IHepsuGPoS8", "vendor":"FUJITSU" ] ] At least for yast2-bootloader it is essential that we can read these data structures during development and debugging.

[yast-devel] Some questions about YOU&YCP
by 张镜明 02 Aug '07

02 Aug '07

Hi all : I'm a college studet,and I've some questions about the mechanism of YOU in SLES 10 ,32bit version . 1) Does YOU use any authentication when getting the package ? For example the user account and the password? I found I needn't input the stuff ,so is these information stored in a file ? like xml ...etc 2) Can I download a particular rpm using command line(not using GUI) ? Especially using "command url"schema? 3) I found that YOU do all the package related thing rely on the C++ code,and if I want to change the C++ code,how can I make it into the yast2 module to get my changing applied? 4) It seems to me that the YCP language is only the GUI wrapper and all the core stuff is done by c++, am I right?
