b) the Zenworks fiasco. Just out of curiosity....what was this? I don't want to rehash. Send me a link so I can get caught up, that's all.
When someone decided to push the devs to include ZMD(Zenworks Management Daemon) into 10.1 Beta 3(you know, after the new feature freeze) and then released 10.1 with a broken package manager. Definitely not one of SuSE's finer points. (because Novell bought a couple of companies and decided to integrate everything). However, zypper evolved from that, and it's a really fast system now. I only installed 10.1 on 1 machine. 10.1 also had broken support for Old World Macs, so I stuck with 10.0 until 10.2 came out with the fix(the kernel had been broken). It was also when we repeatedly requested that they fix the isos with the fixed package manager and were repeatedly told no, and the they remastered 10.1 about 6 weeks before 10.2 was released. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
