No, it is not "tricky", but some of the manipulations make the use somewhat tricky. You just moved 4.12 into Tumbleweed standard as 4.12.2-2.1 or greater in a few instances, but the last last version in Tumbleweed Testing was 4.12.2-4.1 so "zypper dup" wants to downgrade 143 pkgs on my box to 4.12.2-1.
As Greg points out, that is correct, as these files are no longer in :Testing, so zypper did the correct thing.
So anyone who was using Tumbelweed_Testing should pay particular attention to the actions "zypper dup" propose until Tumbleweed_standard has caught up. I tend to revert to "zypper up" during these times.
Nope, that should be fine, I use both repos here, and when the file "graduates" it moves out of :Testing and so you end up doing a "downgrade" due to the build number, but that is correct.
Yes, I just realized that after another posted :^)
ps: the locks do me *no* good.
Don't use locks, again, this isn't "hard", trust zypper, it knows what it is doing :)
I do need locks but do not have pure Tumbleweed. I need photography apps, particularly darktable which Togan Muftuoglu and packman both package. But packman's version shows as newer than Togan's and it is not, so I lock darktable "from packman". There is a similar case with google-earth-stable; the repo rpm will no run on my box but the one provided by google directly does.... S | Name | Type | Version | Arch | Repository --+---------------------+---------+--------------+--------+------------------ i | google-earth-stable | package | 7.1.2.2041-0 | x86_64 | (System Packages) v | google-earth-stable | package | 6.0.3.2197-0 | x86_64 | google-earth But Tumbleweed is the "cat's meow".
