Thanks for the quick response on this Stefan.
I feel like openSUSE needs some better way of handling bugs that are identified
in final versions. This bug alone I could live with. But this bug plus
another half a dozen on my system make it frustrating to use. I'll upgrade to
11.3 when it comes out, which will have fixed the known issues, but then will
introduce it's own set of issues. It's been this way since I've been using
openSUSE (5 or 6 version ago). This one's pretty minor as far as they go, but
I'm also dealing with larger issues that are going to cause countless users big
headaches unless fixes are pushed out via online update (buttons don't work in
Flash/Eclipse due to bug in GDK, sound card was broken due to bug in YaST, NX
shadowing is broken, etc.)
It seems like the way bugs are handled is just to say we'll fix them in the
next version, but a lot of times that leaves users in a frustrating spot
(again, this bug might be on the minor side, but for other issues...) Could we
just make the newest versions of all the xlibraries available via online
update? It wouldn't require any additional development time from backporting
patches and would fix a known issue.
