I would really like to have an explanation: why is it that other distributions (e.g. Fedora and Ubuntu) already have packages for (at least) GNOME 2.14 but none are provided for SUSE Linux ? GNOME supplementary still ships 2.12.
And now, the "general problem": I just don't see ex-Ximian people involved into openSUSE at all.
Do they actually know that their employer has its own distribution called SUSE Linux ?
Miguel de Icaza is leading GNOME AFAIK, and Novell employs quite a lot of GNOME developers.. so... where are the SUSE Linux packages ?
This is really ridiculous. Try it yourself: spend some time on IRC in #suse or #opensuse and explain to some folks why SUSE Linux, the distribution owned by the company that has a lot of GNOME developers and even the GNOME lead on its payroll, does not provide up-to-date GNOME packages.
I don't have the answers, but I certainly support the questions. Thanks, Pascal, for having the guts to ask. Keith -- Keith Kastorff kastorff@yahoo.com
