Thanks Alan. But I'll have to investigate further.
OpenSUSE is not my primary distro. Just wanted to know if someone else
was experiencing these annoyances...
I can live with that !

@ sda,
Thanks for the great work you're doing to *enlighten* our desktops !
I especially like the reengineering of the good old 23oz theme.

Well, I've been using/compiling E17 from source for years (on
Mandrake/Mandriva, Debian, Ubuntu...) and I like it.
I like to know how it works, how it feels... As you well know, you learn
a lot by compiling from source.
Binary packages  (.rpm, .deb) say nothing.

Your repo (and all the other E17 repos offering specific binary
packages) lacks some interesting programs:
What if someone wants to test engycad, embrace, e_phys, elapse... just
to name a few ?
Raster removed entice from the cvs because it wasn't maintained anymore
(I miss this cool little app). Some apps
slowly disappear because they can't find their way to the binary repos.
Since a lot of beginners rely on binary repos,
they'll never hear about these less known apps... Less users ->
development stalls -> obsolescence ->...

What about eyelight ?  eyesight... ? I can compile/use newly introduced
programs as soon they reach the svn repositories.
It's fun !

E17 binary repos are a good thing... but way too limited for my tastes.
