http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=548089 Summary: Qt sw_single hides vendor change updates Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: RC 1 Platform: i686 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: martin.schlander@gmail.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- Created an attachment (id=323038) --> (http://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=323038) screenshot of sw_single hiding vendor change update User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.1.3) Gecko/20090909 SUSE/3.5.3-3.2 Firefox/3.5.3 If you add a 3rd party repository to 11.2rc1, sw_single will "hide" (not show) the availability of updates. In 11.1 (and earlier) sw_single would display the update availability by using blue text and showing the available version in the "Installed (Available)" column. In 11.2rc1 the update availability is completely hidden for the user. See attached screenshot. This means the user must know that an update is there, and manually go to the version tab and select it in order to install it. In other words the user has to be an expert and do extra work to install e.g. libxine1 from packman or amarok 2.2 from kde:backports, or any other OBS/Packman package which exists in the distro (mozilla stuff, OOo, etc.) for that matter. The severity of this problem cannot be exaggerated. If you allow vendor change in zypp.conf, you can work around the problem, but this is of course not satisfactory.
