Does this mean: it's a feature? So how about my next bug: If you start the installation source module without internet connection, YaST checks for each source, if it's available and prompts for OK, Cancel, Skip. If you choose "Skip", YaST asks, if it should remove the installation source immediately. If you choose here "No" (for not removing) the installation source does not show up anymore. YaST does not remove the source indeed, but as it does not show up, most users may think, that it did so. If you have several sources set up, this might be _very_ annoying. -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Marcel Hilzinger Linux New Media AG Süskindstr. 4 D-81929 München Tel: +49 (89) 99 34 11 0 Fax: +49 (89) 99 34 11 99 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
