It just has to be used. Note that for openSUSE coolo has a program that makes sure that the packages contain an explicit conflict if there is a file conflict, this mitigates the problem a bit. -- 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.

Abort, retry, ignore? [a/r/i] (a): r (1/2) Installing: fileconflictA-0-0 ..................................[done] - I'd introduce a new zypp option for this, so the default behavior (for PK, YaST) would not change unless they use it. - Zyppers default would then be to treat file conflicts as above; in non interactive mode this would abort the installation as other errors do. - We'd introduce a --replacefiles option to zyppers install commands to turn on the old behavior (silently overwrite) @Coolo: Would you buy this for 13.1 ? -- 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.
