How can this be disabled? I'd like zyppers summary to tell me what will happen, not what wont. I did not disable recommends in order to be bothered with suggestions. ;)
i'd also suggest it'd be helpful to know WHY the package is not going to be installed ...
I felt that would be too much text. Currently it says The following package updates will NOT be installed: amarok amarok-lang audacious-plugins boost-devel boost-license1_39_0 cairo cmake DirectFB faac fate ffmpeg .... You can then do 'zypper up amarok' to find out why: $ LANG=C zypper up amarok <cut> There is an update candidate for 'amarok', but it is locked. Use 'zypper removelock amarok' to unlock it. <cut> If the summary ought to tell why, it would be too much info, too much text in there. Like the title would need to say "The following package updates will NOT be installed, because of vendor change, low priority, a lock, or problematic dependencies. Try 'zypper up package' for more details.". Too much IMO. Once people will get familiar with the "not updated" list, the text will start to be annoying. Other solution would be to show "why" after one chooses 'd' (details) in the prompt. I'd like that, but like with other things, i can't do this alone, so if anyone wants to do it, please go ahead. In the meantime use 'zypper up package' if you're curious why the package won't be updated. -- cheers, jano Ján Kupec YaST team ---------------------------------------------------------(PGP)--- Key ID: 637EE901 Fingerprint: 93B9 C79B 2D20 51C3 800B E09B 8048 46A6 637E E901 ---------------------------------------------------------(IRC)--- Server: irc.freenode.net Nick: jniq Channels: #zypp #yast #suse #susecz ---------------------------------------------------------(EOF)---
