I mean, replacing one string with another can have many meanings: 1) changed "baeutiful" to "beautiful" (typo) 2) changed "ethereal" to "wireshark" (project renamed upstream) 3) changed "imgmagic" to "ImageMagick" (lifted 8 char restriction) 4) changed "portmap" to "rpcbind" (different package, same goal, bnc#...) 5) changed "GNOME" to "KDE" (strategy change, bnc#...) and it is reasonable to provide a link to details for 4 and 5. -- Martin Vidner, YaST developer http://en.opensuse.org/User:Mvidner Kuracke oddeleni v restauraci je jako fekalni oddeleni v bazenu
