Well, the problem is that HTTP and HTTPS are NOT the same protocol. Although they are similar there is one (big) difference: security. And you need to know which type is provided on the server otherwise adding fails. URL is there for quick adding, e.g. using copy and paste. You can paste there any URL type (HTTP, FTP...). |
Created attachment 331275 [details] Illustrating the idea User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.1.5) Gecko/20091103 SUSE/3.5.5-1.1.2 Firefox/3.5.5 Just a small enhancement that would speed up adding repositories - In the YaST2 repositories window there is an add button which leads to a screen with a radiobutton list allowing the selection of different types of repositories. The options URL, http and https all do pretty much the same. Since URL isn't a type I'd suggest to remove it and combine http/https into one. Then once that option is selected add 2 textfields to the window for the name/url. (just take a look at the screenshot, easy to understand then wording it ;)) Reproducible: Always
