With the releae of openSUSE 10.3, openSUSE introduced '1-Click Install' . However openSUSE only has security support for it's oss and non-oss repositories. How great of a security risk is adding third-party repositories which you can hardly verify ( http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/ )? What are the risks of getting rootkits and/or security exploits. Is openSUSE's approach more risky then Gentoo/FreeBSD which provides security fixes for all packages in their tree? -- Regards, Aniruddha
