Hi! The presence of the linux32 package (installed by default on x86_64) causes issues including not behaving well with elements of the GNOME desktop [bnc#841070], but also more invasive ones such as [bnc#435538]. I request the consideration of dropping the package altogether from Factory if there is no reasonable use case which justifies otherwise. If this cannot be done because people do use this package, might I suggest removing it from the default patterns* and hiding the .desktop menu item from the applications menu (as promised in bnc#408320, then somehow reverted), in the least?
linux32 is a simple shell script that is quite usefull for some development and debugging work. If it causes issues in Gnome, then something is wrong in Gnome. Let's fix the desktop files instead of dropping linux32, Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger aj@{suse.com,opensuse.org} Twitter: jaegerandi SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GF: Jeff Hawn,Jennifer Guild,Felix Imendörffer,HRB16746 (AG Nürnberg) GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
