Greetings all,
I unfortunately don't think it is going to be possible to get the metapackage handler / single click install feature ready for 10.3. The current situation is:
- There is a version in factory with major bugs and incomplete functionality.
- There is a version I'm working on using the new specification [http://en.opensuse.org/Standards/One_Click_Install] which I am unlikely to have time to complete within the next 2 weeks, as I am still working full time and moving house. As I understand it, alpha 6 (final alpha) freeze is this Friday.
This is entirely my fault as I drastically underestimated the amount of time I would require to complete the implementation of the handler for the finalised specification of the metapackages, and consequently wasted too much time working on a ycp -> codedom project. I have hit a number of problems that have delayed me considerably, particularly as with mvidner away there is no YCP guru on IRC.
Hi,
Frankly, I don't think you've failed here, terms are always to be postponed :) Some features can even get an exception-privilege to be delivered after a freeze deadline but you'll need to talk to AJ (in Cc:).
Yes, exceptions are possible, talk to me once you know a bit more and let's discuss what makes sense, Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, Director Platform / openSUSE, aj@suse.de SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126
