I'm not sure i understand your questions. Do you mean, whether you can add an
update (rpmmd) repository? That would be "yes". You can do it via 'zypper
addrepo' (and soon also via NU service, 'zypper addservice'), but yes, it's
almost the same as adding a .repo file into /etc/zypp/repos.d.
Now, the change (according to what people favor in the threads mentioned in
c#4) will be as follows:
- patch and package updates will be separated into two commands (instead
of having 'up' for both packages and patches; the same goes for 'lu' of
course).
Let's say the commands will be named 'list-updates (lu)',
'list-patch-updates (lpu)', 'update (up)', and 'apply-patches (ap) (i'm not
sure about the exact names yet).
- 'lu'/'lpu' will be changed to list exactly what 'up'/'ap' would list in the
install summary. Special option will be added to lu/lpu to list 'raw' list of
installed packages for which newer versions exist in repos without
considering
not installable packages due to dependency problems (as it currently does).
This is roughly how it will work.
