[yast-devel] YaST Tips&Tricks
by Ladislav Slezak 25 Jan '22

25 Jan '22

Hi all, some time ago we discussed where and how we should share "Tips&Tricks" for YaST users and developers. IIRC there was no clear conclusion so I decided to start a wiki [1] to collect all our tricks we know or use. For now it's just a place for dumping your ideas, links, short howtos, etc... When we collect enough data we can probably split it to several categories or move it somewhere else. We just need the data first. I have added there some my tricks from my personal "knowledgebase" file. If you have better tricks or find something wrong simply change it, it's a wiki ;-) Ladislav [1] https://github.com/yast/yast.github.io/wiki/YaST-Tips-and-Tricks -- Ladislav Slezák YaST Developer SUSE LINUX, s.r.o.

[yast-devel] HOWTO: Screencast recording
by Ladislav Slezak 22 Jul '17

22 Jul '17

Hi all, Yesterday I published a short blog post about recording a screencast (a desktop session) to create a video or an animated image. So if you want to have nice animated images in READMES [1] or in pull requests [2] then check this post [3]. Enjoy!

[yast-devel] Protected branches at GitHub?
by Ladislav Slezak 21 Dec '16

21 Dec '16

Hi, I have noticed a quite interesting GitHub feature which allows to protect the specified branches. A short summary from [1]: A protected branch: - Can't be force pushed - Can't be deleted - Can't have changes merged into it until required status checks pass - Can't have changes merged into it until required reviews are approved - Can't be edited or have files uploaded to it from the web See [1] and [2] for more details. AFAIK some developers use forks mainly because they are afraid of messing the original repositories. With protected branches that should not happen. Additionally it would strictly enforce PR reviews (we do that already so I see no problem with that). IMHO a nice feature, I'm just not sure which branches we could protect. Obviously the old maintenance branches, I'm not sure about the "master" branch, maybe it would be too strict. What do you think about it? Should we use this GitHub feature? We could use the agile approach, try it in a few selected repos and see how it works... Comments?

[yast-devel] before I file another bug about font sizes...
by Felix Miata 21 Oct '16

21 Oct '16

...I want to make sure there is a solution that I simply have not yet found. Expected (OK) fonts results (e.g.): sw_single @120 DPI in KDE3 on 13.1: http://fm.no-ip.com/SS/Suse/YaST/newbug-yast2fontsizesOK131kde3-120.png sw_single @132 DPI in KF5 on TW: http://fm.no-ip.com/SS/Suse/YaST/newbug-yast2fontsizesOKtwkde5-132.png Not expected (undersized) fonts results (e.g.): sw_single @108 DPI in TDE on 13.2: http://fm.no-ip.com/SS/Suse/YaST/newbug-yast2fontsizesTooSmall132tde-108.png sw_single @120 DPI in KDE3 on 42.1: http://fm.no-ip.com/SS/Suse/YaST/newbug-yast2fontsizesTooSmall421kde3-120.p… sw_single @168 DPI in KDE3 on 42.1: http://fm.no-ip.com/SS/Suse/YaST/newbug-yast2fontsizesTooSmall421kde3-168.p… Clearly sw_single (and other y2 apps) post-13.1 (except in KF5) is using smaller fonts than those used in the y2 control center and in the rest of DE UI, as if both the non-KF5 DE's font settings and QT's font setting in Trolltech.conf are being disregarded. Is there something that can be installed or removed to bring up font sizes to match the rest of the DE and y2cc in KDE3 and TDE without loading the installation with QT5 and/or KF5, or even with QT5 and/or KF5? Or, is this a bug that's already been filed, or one that needs filing? -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

[yast-devel] StorageNG test image: No dependency conflicts :-)
by Jiri Srain 27 Sep '16

27 Sep '16

Hello, I have adjusted the image with installer using new storage stack [1]; now it can generate the software proposal without dependency conflicts if you select the minimal X11 pattern. For now, I set the image build to fail if package missing - which will happen rather soon due to "renames" with library version changes, I assume. However, image which cannot select packages properly is still more useful for current testing than no image at all (feel free to disagree here).
