Prague YaST2 team meeting 2008-05-27 ==================================== Present: jkupec, jreidinger, jsrain, jsuchome, juhliarik, kmachalkova, locilka, lslezak, mvidner Absent: mzugec Minutes: juhliarik New branches (mvidner): ---------------------- - Martin plans to create branches (SP3, 11.1) in the yast and zypp repositores as soon as RC1 is announced. zypper/libzypp: -------------- - PoolQuery::setVersion() has been added to be able to search by version (and to be able to support all that was supported in the old zypp locks) (jkupec) - zypper now sets the new 'ignoreAlreadyRecommended' solver flag - false for dist-upgrade and a new 'install-new-recommends' command, true for all other commands. This solves the problem of "'zypper in foo', foo not found, but i will install a bunch of other packages if you want" :O) (jkupec bnc #389694) - simple "(X/Y)" for "installing Xth of Y packages" counter added to zypper's output (jkupec bnc #240588) - added convertor for converting old locks to new (jreidinger) - there is a problem with time consuming searching of locks if a lock contains an unknown attribute (the query ignores such attributes and can return a lot more packages than intened). We need to find a way how to at least log such cases, currently we are not able to tell whether the attribute is known or not. (jreidinger) Add-On Creator (jsuchome): ------------------------- - enable reading patterns if they are stored in one file (bnc#393515) - updated to support latest version of pattern metadata - added sysconfig variables to handle compressing the metadata Misc: ----- - In 2nd stage without automatic configuration, internet test couldn't be performed as no URL for downloading release notes has been defined. A new function has been added to Product module (Product::ReadProduct) to read available product and its attributes on the installed system and in 2nd stage, which is now used in YCP script testing internet connection. (kmachalkova - bnc #390738) - With libyui and ncurses, it is not possible to create dialogs beforehand on the stack and open/close them only when needed. It may result in the situation where topmost dialog cannot be closed at all. Thus, any pop-up dialog should be created on demand only. (kmachalkova - bnc #384368) - Creating backup of /etc/pam.d/ during upgrade to openSUSE 11.0 (locilka - bnc #393066) - Currently impossible to build YaST documentation for openSUSE 11.0 due to several package-splits, and moved or renamed docu-files. (locilka, mvidner) - locking packages for PPC64 (lslezak - bnc #336678) - The product creator doesn't support more pattern definitions in one file. Will be fixed after 11.0.(lslezak) - OES2 + SP2 doesn't work (mvidner) - solved problem with editing boot section for lilo (juhliarik) - Image Creator (part of yast2-product-creator) is updated. it supports current version of kiwi e.g. added support for profiles (jsuchome) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: yast-devel+help@opensuse.org
