[Bug 230673] New: zen-updater updates from unsubscribed catalogs instead of subscribed official suse update catalog
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=230673 Summary: zen-updater updates from unsubscribed catalogs instead of subscribed official suse update catalog Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Zenworks AssignedTo: zlm-code10-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: f.alabas@ttnet.net.tr QAContact: sarifulla@novell.com I have configured zen-updater in order to check & update ONLY from offical opensuse update repository. And I have also configured some experimental repositories, but NOT subscribed in order to prevent from update, I just do it manually by clicking the corresponding catalog in the configure when I need some specific experimental packages. However, ONLY when opensuse issues an official update then, I start the update, but zen-updater updates from unsubscribed experimental catalogs if it sees a newer version of the packages than official update. Logically, zen-updater should not look into unsubscribed catalogues for updates, so it should pick up the official update packages automatically. If zen-updater loves to find the newest version from within even unsubscribed catalogues, it should, at least, show them too in the update list. -- 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.

I am not sure to list them all here or open bug reports for each of them. Anyway as a starting point I will list them here from minor to most critical ones. 1) After a successful update with zen-updater, the update notification sign in the KDE panel still notifies, although there is no update. Then I need to restart the zmd to clear this dummy notification. 2) When one/some of the repositories are unreachable, there is no notification on the KDE panel. 3) When I add a repository using zen it is NOT automatically added into Yast's package management as installation source. I need to add it again separately using Yast itself. 4) The problem which is the one as already explained in my previous report. 5) When shutting down the system, RANDOMLY zmd can not be shutdown by the system. I see the red failed message on the shutdown screen. Then after next-boot zen-updater says that ZMD is not working, although it is working. I try stoping or restrating the zmd, but it fails. I need to reboot to make the zmd-related things work again. 6) Similarly as problem 5, when RANDOMLY zmd fails to be stopped during shutdown, then after next-boot, some of the repositories are lost in the zen-updater configuration. Restaring the zmd, zen-updater and rebooting does not work, I manually need to add the lost repositories again. 7) Similarly as problem 5 & 6, after suspend/resume operation, zen-updater says that either ZMD is not working ( so I reboot the machine ) or some of the repositories are lost ( so I add them again ) 8) After a normal boot or when refreshing, zmd tries to find the services and refreshes the files, that's ok. But, during these operation zmd eats all the CPU power of my machine and almost does not let another application work. So, trying to do some work during the zmd restarting/refreshing is fooling. My 1.8 GHz Turion 64 with 1 GByte RAM and 128 MByte ATI collapses. When I compare these 8 problems of ZMD with the ZMD in SL10.1, only problem 2 is common !? I attach the necessary log files. -- 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.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=230673 ------- Comment #5 from achiestdragon@whipy.demon.co.uk 2007-01-20 05:54 MST ------- ok think this belongs here i cant install a rpm file thats held on local disk yast says database is locked and in use by another program updater says canot find the rpm reposatory for the rpm that it has localy never had this problem prior to zmd , this is a real pain , if it fails then theres no way to install a rpm fix , but zmd will update online now at least but after trying to install a rpm localy via yast it locks up the whole update system , i have to manualy unlock the database each time and it still locks back up the next time i try the only way left to install anything that is not distributed as a suse official rpm is to search all the rpm reposotories for the file you want and if its not there your stuffed , thats how it is at the moment well a bit better than 10.1 where i still canot get it to update or install anything thats not on the origianl dvd , other than downloading the source ,and compileing it on the machine back a few years ago there used to be the term rpm hell but that was not as bad as the current situation , i have 3 machines here 2 running suse 10.2 and one still on 10.1 online update works fine on one , and needs a restart after each on the other or it tries telling me that all updates have not been installed after updating one file it seems that having 3 diferent programs doing package managment will never work together as there will always be some conflict , one of them has to go users canot be expected to have to spend hours trying to install software that would just install if it was not for the borked packagemanagment i do think one solution that would help if there is any chance of it is the following on the install , add an option that will let you chouse what packagmanagment system you want ie yast only , or full zmd ,yast and rug stateing that the full zmd,yast and rug is still alpha/beta software and may give problems cause its definatly not final if it is it reflects badly on the linux developers that produce good stable software that works without problems -- 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.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=230673 ------- Comment #6 from f.alabas@ttnet.net.tr 2007-04-13 04:46 MST ------- Heyyy, ZMD needs urgent attention !!! I split up this bug into 8; not even a single resolution yet. I keep it work on my machine for testing and seeing the resolved issues of my bugs reported and expect an opportunity for setting some bugs' resolution to FIXED. I hardly bear to ZMD-family applications and started to thinking shifting to Yast Fronted or Smart... I wish a "fatality" package management application from opensuse because this is, most probably, the unique main concern within the distro. -- 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.
