I second this. I would like to be able to tell it to update or not to
update the repositories at the time when I start the software
installation module, and have an option to tell it to skip certain
updates. I know this all can be done, but since it is localized in a
separate module, it can be quite inconvenient.
And having the "abort" button really work, and instantly. It is impossible
to abort YOU in mid-download-repos-phase, unless you kill it - which means
you later have to find the run/pid file and remove it manually.
Also, YaST should have an option to select a language different from
the user's locale. I work in the Ukrainian locale so that I can use
Ukrainian language easily, but I much prefer my user interface in
English. The current YaST translations into Ukrainian are nearly
incomprehensible (or at least incomprehensible to someone who learned
to use SuSE when it was all Enlglish, and does all her computer work
in English). KDE settings allow me to choose the language applications
use, and YaST should have that option, too.
Perhaps you can do that from the command line.
My root locale is english, so I can fire up yast in Spanish this way:
nimrodel:~ # LANG=es_ES.UTF-8 LC_ALL=es_ES.UTF-8 KDE_LANG=es_ES yast2
I actually have a "spanish" script to callup any program in Spanish:
#!/bin/sh
LANG=es_ES.UTF-8 LC_ALL=es_ES.UTF-8 DICTIONARY=espanol KDE_LANG=es_ES $*
So, you would have to define "LANG=POSIX", I think, to get Yast in
English.
nimrodel:~ # locale
LANG=POSIX
LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8
LC_NUMERIC="POSIX"
LC_TIME="POSIX"
LC_COLLATE="POSIX"
LC_MONETARY="POSIX"
LC_MESSAGES="POSIX"
LC_PAPER="POSIX"
LC_NAME="POSIX"
LC_ADDRESS="POSIX"
LC_TELEPHONE="POSIX"
LC_MEASUREMENT="POSIX"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="POSIX"
