Description darren winter 2007-08-12 14:55:32 UTC 
so far, beta 1 has given me more problems than all of the alphas i have tested, combined.

right now it is impossible to add and use ANY external software repository (possibly yum only) which, in the opinion of many, is a "show stopper".

making matters worse is that there is no fix, no online update to patch the problem, no helpful information anywhere - and the only like to a bugzilla report similar to our problem is marked in such a way that nobody can see it (not authorized to access).

where is the fix?  where is the update?

yast logs attached.

i will be on alpha 5 until this problem is resolved.

i don't see the point in sticking to an aggressive release schedule/roadmap if the betas are rolling out with more problems than the alphas.
