You've shown this a couple of times now. Why do you ignore this and persist in using `zypper up` ? Just wondering.

My mistake, I hadn't noticed the change on the page, it used to say zypper up If I do zypper dup it starts by giving me a convoluteted list of dependancy problems but finally starts the update with essentially the same 700+ packages. Thanks for pointing out my error :-)
