Re: [opensuse-factory] Yast Package Patterns / Categories Discussion
Do you have a complete list? I have no complete list, but I know that Debian also has sink and mrtg packages. Those packages are NOT part of SUSE. mtr is another package that would be good to add to the network admins category. Already part of SUSE. I have no complete list as of yet, because 1) not all packages I use for my job. 2) not all packages are part of SUSE. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The Patterns will stay named that way, but as it is possible to combine them with others, there is need to use some names for different levels, combinations, ways to sort them. I tried to establish naming starting with hardware categories, with open status of usage categories, which would be top-down way to define them, Klaus Kempf proposed opposite way, to start combining packages, which would be bottom-up way to create patterns. There is nothing wrong with either way, and actually both combined will give fast results (bottom-up), that 10.2 needs as it is on schedule, and thorough coverage (top-down) that need some time to be created. Primary Functions is good name that should stay at the top of Server, Engineering Workstation, Office Computer, Entertainment, Administration Station and other second level patterns. I hope that they will add them as appropriate definitions come up. -- Regards, Rajko. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
