openSUSE removing Deepin desktop packages |
 |
The Deepin Desktop Environment (DDE) is being removed from openSUSE's repositories, due to issues with security, communication issues between the distribution and upstream, and attempts to work around openSUSE's policies by the package maintainer. "Recently we noticed a policy violation in the packaging of the Deepin desktop environment in openSUSE. To get around security review requirements, our Deepin community packager implemented a workaround which bypasses the regular RPM packaging mechanisms to install restricted assets. As a result of this violation, and in the light of the difficult history we have with Deepin code reviews, we will be removing the Deepin Desktop packages from openSUSE distributions for the time being." The openSUSE project has provided a detailed write-up of the history of issues between the distribution and the Deepin upstream project. |
