Hi, bug #1065588 is still open. It deals with the installation of NTFS packages if an NTFS file system is found on the system. Even though the file system is not mounted YaST wants to install the NTFS tools. Some users do not like that behaviour. The idea already mentioned in the bug is to make the used features as reported by libstorage-ng more relaxed: When a file system is present but not mounted the corresponding used feature will not be set. So YaST will not propose to install the tools. I think this has one disadvantage: When making a new installation the NTFS tools will not be installed (since AFAIR YaST does not create entries in fstab for those anymore). Anyway, now users or desktop environments cannot mount NTFS. That looks like a regression to me. So my proposal is to have a used_features() function in libstorage-ng that takes an argument, say REQUIRED and SUGGESTED. During installation YaST would install the SUGGESTED tools. In the running system it would only install the REQUIRED tools. Does that look fine? This has one additional consequence: The user could use YaST to just create an XFS. In that case the XFS tools are not required in the final system - but surely they are required to create the XFS. So the actiongraph will also have a used_features() function and YaST must install the corresponding tools.
