The icon isn't even removed by uninstalling yast2-live-installer, but has to be deleted manually a last time. The way it works is that the desktop initialization script of GNOME and KDE packages check if the yast2-live-installer package exists and then put the icon on the desktop. A Live-CD installation itself removes the yast2-live-installer package. So the only bug, if any, is why do you have (still) yast2-live-installer package installed? How did you install your system/this package? No response. Hmm... That's the easy way out. Actually, if you are so impatient, maybe you can have somebody check Bug 345450, which I filed 2007-12-02 09:22 and it shows no activity to date. Back to the installer: I don't really recall how I got infected. I vaguely believe I tried out the GNOME Live CD and had that in the tray while booting. Since I removed all traces of the yast2-live-installer I live in peace. Also I did not file this as Bug, but rather as Enhancement, as you may notice if you look under Severity: I guess you are talking about this icon in the installed system (running from the disk), right? The package itself should be removed at the end of the installation, does it still exist in your system? If so, could you attach the logs from the installation to find out what was wrong? Somehow I got infected with live-installer during playing with the live cd from http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/10.3/iso/cd/openSUSE-10.3-GM-GNOME-Live-i386.iso When the CD is booted it shows the install icon on the desktop. Somehow I managed to get this into my hard disk based openSuSE installation. Probably tried to use it to recover from a broken system. While the package was there it would force the icon on the desktop every boot. As this seems to be a very unlikely case for other users ( the live-installer package is not even part of the repository ) you may close it as INVALID, as I lived under the assumption this was some kind of regular function when I reported it. OK, doing as you suggest, since this scenario is really kind of weird. Anyway, if this problem occurres after regular live installation, please, reopen and provide info from my last comment. Actually I now have it again: After installing from the Beta2 live cd and deleting the icon from my desktop, it is replaced with every login. Attaching logs from installation.

Well, after installing from Beta2 live CD it's back. Deleting the icon for good is impossible, as it is put back on the desktop with every login. Attaching /var/log/* for your perusal. This might be a side effect of Bug 310543 |
