sceenshot of software repository
You do not need to run the registration if you already have an update repo. This first part in "Online Update Configuration" was meant to restore the default update repo in case you do not have one. This can happen by accident or if somebody created a system-image and forgot to add the update repo ... or, or, or. Unfortunately the information what the default update repo is was not added to the products metadata - so this thingy will never work on openSUSE 11.1 - it will never find any update repo nor can it be restored. Registration is just another way to get the update repo. You do not need to register openSUSE but an admin might want to, if he want to track his installed systems with SMT for example (http://www.novell.com/linux/smt/). *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 449842 *** |
Created attachment 296628 [details] screenshot of Online Update Configuration User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; de; rv:1.9.0.10) Gecko/2009042700 SUSE/3.0.10-1.1.1 Firefox/3.0.10 In Yast2->Online Update Configuration is the "Current Update Repository:" empty ("(none)"). However, in software management the update repository is active. Second, it's unclear, at least for me, why should I register to get the update repository (click on the "Advanced" button of "Online Update Configuration") when I have already the update repository?!? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. install from KDE 32-bit Live CD 2. goto yast-> Online Update Repository 3. Current Update Repository is "none", though, already installed.
