The patch description says: <description lang="en">This update of ImageMagick fixes a bug in the patch for the last security update for CVE-2007-1797. </description>
What do you mean by "buggy"?
As I wrote: the summary is nearly useless.
The text you cited is just the summary.
And it is all that opensuse-updater shows.
I see no bug, typo, whatever here. If you need more information use another frontend (i.e. the ZenUpdater).
I'm afraid you miss the point. The _summary_ should contain the most important information - that's why it is called summary ;-) . And IMHO it is important _what_ (which package) was fixed. The description is a bit hidden: - YaST shows it for the selected patch, so you have to click each patch to see it for all available patches. - opensuse-updater doesn't show the summary anywhere - in zen-updater, you need to click on "details" IIRC (besides the fact that is is gone in 10.3 and many people don't use it on 10.1/10.2) Of course the long description contains all the details, but the summary is what people see first. Real-world question: Imagine a newspaper that states "something happened" in big letters on the title page, with another headline "it happened!", hiding the event somewhere in the text, and of course without photos. Would you buy this newspaper and/or read these articles?
P.S.: We have a proofread action item in our update process.
Then please add the following to your checklist: - "the summary should contain the package title" - "the summary should give a short overview about what was changed" - "german and english text should have the same meaning" -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
