I thought Friday was the new date?

As an update to my comment made in the status meeting, yum does not handle 
srpm's.  I still believe, not for this version for obvious reasons, that 
being able to handle srpm's through the package manager is a Very Good Thing 
(TM).  Perhaps this can go onto a wishlist for the future... I'll try and put 
down a good idea of what I think would work, why, etc, and post up a feature 
request once I can.

Wait for the next sync tomorrow, we're currently integrating our new
packagemanager,

[opensuse-factory] FTP installation of factory

2006-02-08 Thread Frank-Michael Fischer
Does anyone have an idea, why my installation of the opensuse-factory
via FTP fails both ways, when going via internet or from my local rsync
mirror? When going local FTP, installation complains there are no
packages groups available after choosing Gnome or KDE. When going
internet the installation just hangs at "Software Auswahl" without
complaining.
