           Summary: Unable to Install Auto Patch Updates due to .drpm and
                    .rpm file formats from Main Update and other
                    Repositories
    Classification: openSUSE
           Product: openSUSE 11.4

New Installation of 11.4 X64 went perfectly as to be expected, however when
updates in either of the two places that are necessary patch updates MANY MANY
files can not be installed.

Sometime a .DRPM File is called for and found and vs versa when a .RPM File is
called for and Found - all is well.

Unfortunately Update/KDE Patches cannot occur as the .DRPM file that is auto
called for may only exist in .DRPM. IF BOTH .rpm and .drpm versions of ALL
patches from ALL directories were there - no issue - BUT THATS NOT
HAPPENING....

A brand new Install of 11.4 with ALL update patches cannot occur as a result of
there not always being the correct file extension called for from the
repository Main and KDE other Update patches are called from.

It is NOT possible to complete a NEW 11.4 X_64 Installation ATM as there is a
mix of .rpm and .drpm files called from update sources when that file extension
may or may not exist at all.

If you proceed to try to perform and Online Update from Yast the very very same
issues are found and you are left with a version full if leaks as the patch
updates are not able to be restored.

If we take this scenario to the rest of the build services now...this get as
ugly as worst on the PC

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
After an 11.4 X_64 Install the patch updates cannot be completed with the
confines of the install program, nor by using Online update - leaving an
unstable and possibly insecure installation that falls over when you look at it 

Expected Results:  
WHY WAS THERE AN ATTEMPT TO COMPLETELY LEAVE PREVIOUS VERSION AND THEIR
REPOSITORY'S MOVED TO .DRPM - There is NO merit, I can think of to make the
12.x .DRPM file format to be extended to previous versions.

I'll attach a pic and as this is 100% reproducible logs should not be needed,
however if you cannot reproduce this please let me know on 11.4 X^4
