Off topic: Like I wrote before this discussion is off topic and almost thread hijacking but I feel I have to answer. I'm just speaking my mind as a community member - I never had anything to do with the decision to release. In my opinion 10.1 packagemanagement is bad enough to give SUSE a bad rep - who knows how long it'll take to remedy that. I think this should and can be avoided/reduced by an effort to "prepare" people for some troubles and informing them of workarounds - like using Smart - or maybe waiting a couple of months before upgrading - maybe then some patches will be out - let's hope that some are out by the time the retail box hits stores. Again, I believe that this buggy release will help make 10.2 and SLED 10 better - and in the long run we'll benefit from it - but for now damage control is on top of my agenda. But hey, you make up your own mind how bad you think it is.
