The point is that the update was performed based on the DVD, which has less
packages than the online repos, which are added after the update.
Instead of 'zypper up' one can select YaSTs 'Package -> All Packages -> update
if newer version is available'. The result is similar, but IMO zypper does a
slightly better job under certain conditions.
I reopen the bug and pass it to the YaST guys:
Maybe it's worth thinking about improving the update workflow. On could suggest
to immediately include the online repos when performing the update. If the user
does not want to, one should tell him (2nd stage?) how to complete the upadte
after the online repos were added.
IMO best would be another 'dup' (to also catch renamed/splited packages outside
the DVD), at least to suggest an 'update'.
@Thomas: 'update if newer version is available' could be easily improved to
match 'zypper up'. With this being done, Tony could complete the update without
leaving YaST ;)
