From https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=247385 "I think that the updater *should* support all repo channels and not just the patch/security repo channels. A lot of people (me including) both on the SUSE IRC chat rooms and SUSE forums like updating their favorite applications when a newer version arrives. I think the opensuseupdater *must* allow the user to choose whether he

I received a comment that we should not do this automatically - and should even differentiate between repositories so that the users see updates from the official openSUSE update channel in a different form than from other repositories. I suggest to make switches "Show only patches" and "Show patches and packages". We might also consider to make this a switch for each repository so that the user has a more fine granular role. Please discuss what is usefull. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

Who wants to have all possible updates can use zen-updater, it is doing just what is asked in description. BTW, that feature is one of the reasons that I removed zen-updater from my computer. The updates from third party repositories comming often and it is time consuming to review all of them, add to that zen-updater inability to remember what updates were refused, it equals annoyance. This kind of feature can have unwanted side effects. First joy to have so fast updates, new users will tell "Linux rocks". Overhelmed with new stuff they can easily ignore fact that distribution has released versions for one reason, to ensure that all packages play nicely togheather. When third party packages introduce incompatibilities, and produce strange results, they have no idea what happened and blame openSUSE. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
