Basically I run my own spin of opensuse built with kiwi with minimal gnome environment (no patterns).
There is your problem - you are not using the distro as provided. bjolie@haldis:~> zypper search --recommends haveged Loading repository data... Reading installed packages...

Information for package haveged: -------------------------------- Repository : Tumbleweed Oss Name : haveged Version : 1.9.1-13.5 Arch : x86_64 Vendor : openSUSE Installed Size : 58.9 KiB Installed : No Status : not installed Source package : haveged-1.9.1-13.5.src Summary : Feed entropy into random pool Description : The haveged daemon feeds the linux entropy pool with random numbers generated from hidden processor state. For more informations see http://www.issihosts.com/haveged/ bjolie@haldis:~> --------------------- haveged is only a recommended package because it's not needed for many (most?) systems (More or less any hardware cpu released the last 5 years or so). As you can see, package is not installed on my box. However for VM's and head-less systems without a hardware entropy generator it's a rather nice thing to have, hence it's a recommended package by the base system. I was tempted to close this bug as invalid, but since this is a bug for Leap you filed, I'll leave it open for the SLE maintainers (but frankly, this is not a GNOME thing, but a base system one). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
