The ChangeLog is almost useless since none of the referenced bug reports is readable for non-suse people.
At least one of the added patches ("umount-avoid-readlink.patch") has no effect because it patches a deprecated and unused subdir which will be removed in next release anyway.
Please somebody have a look at the last changelog and either make the bug reports world-readable or fix the changlog to explain the purpose of these patches:
IMHO the Changelog should be kept terse, and the reason for a patch should be kept within the patch. In the above mentioned case, all LGTM:

Unfortunately, the referenced bug bnc#794529 can't be read by non-SUSEs.
Nothing against a terse rpm-changelog. BUT for all what is considered holy, put a full version of it in the %{docdir}/Changelog , esp if -like here- most of the needed info is inaccessible for non-insiders. That goes double for the essential packages of the Base:System pool. The nice part of stuff in %{docdir} is, that is can be excluded from being installed via rpm (rpm --excludedocs), and via /etc/zypp/zypp.conf (rpm.install.excludedocs = yes). - Yamaban. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
