I think it used to work that way in the past. At least, it was possible to pre-format the texts in the PDB somehow and it got properly exported from the PDB suitable for yast and (in the very past) for the package list on the Web.
For current products the PDB is no longer used at all so that any kind of special pre-format is no longer available.
Therefore YaST (or whatever tool which shows RPM description texts) must be prepared to display plain text descriptions correctly.
Yes, that's the problem. Is this format ("plain text") described somewhere? As you said previously, yast probably honors two \n on a row as a paragraph separator. -- Karl Eichwalder R&D / Documentation SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nuernberg) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: yast-devel+help@opensuse.org
