I think you misuderstood the function of the sysconfig variable. Though it
affects the startup of both programs, it is not used by either. There is
another program that starts (runupdater) which checks this variable and makes
the decision to start the one you set with the variable. If you, in the
zen-updater config disable that, it neither affects opensuse updater, the
variable, nor runupdater, only zen-updater. If you with the variable are
saying to start zen, they by zen's config disable it, you have effectively
disabled all your updaters. The correct solution is to set the sysconfig
variable used by runupdater to the updater of choice, and you are done. If you
do want to disable your updaters, then that is still possible. It is the
answer to having several parallel but different updaters, aimed at different
scenarios, and make it pretty easy (once understood) to switch to the one you
want. HTH.
