Very often people consider "vendor change" prompts as "package conflicts". At least that's a big part of the problem.
Well admitedly "vendor change" is not really terminology the average user will be familiar with, and perhaps they not even fully understand what a package conflict means and why they can't proceed with their install without overiding and puting the system into an unstable state.
In my eyes, the solution to this is the information offered to the user has to be presented in a more easily understood way.
Perhaps we should go further. At the same time as offering a better description or explanation of what a "vendor change" is, we can disable the ability to ignore package conflicts. Make it a toggle or configuration option that experienced users can turn back on.
It would make a hell of a difference if YaST would simply default to suggesting doing the vendor change(s) and asking the user if it's OK yes/no, instead of "forcing" the user to actively choose between 3 different actions with no default action pre-selected/suggested... No idea how you explain these sorts of things to a yast or zypp developer though. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner@opensuse.org
