[opensuse-factory] How to test updated package version during installation?

16 Jan 2013

      How to test fix in a package if bug happens during initial
installation? I.e. - how to make installer use updated package
version?

I do not see how to do it with DUD. I can run scripts before/after
installation, but in this case it is too late because bug happens
during package installation itself (when post is run).

Solution would be to use multiple repositories but I do not see how I
can do it. Also I am not sure installer would use local package
repository with unknown signature.

Any idea? TIA

P.S. in this case I speak about
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=798604. grub2 post
triggers bug in os-prober so I need to make updated os-prober
available before grub2 is installed.

And I cannot test fix after installation because it happens only during install.
