And btw, can you remove installed patches?
That's a difficult one ;-)
Neither qt YOU nor ncurses YOU provide an interface for removing installed patches, but rug and zen-remover do (not working). But this feature does not make too much sense as long as tabooing patches is not possible (with "tabooing" I mean "never ever install this patch and don't even ask" - none of the update tools supports that currently).
What would make sense it to go for patch downgrade, e.g. patch the system to use the 1st ZYPP online patch. This is also not possible right now with zen-updater and YOU.
Maybe we shouldn't offer the YOU interface and direct the user to zen-updater? I dunno, but I guess the best is to provide it and the distribution should be the disabling it, if it wants to.
Yeah, that's this well-known and problematic duplication of tools... But YOU and Zen-Updater still don't obsolete each other. For example, Zen-Updater requires root to grant _permanent_ zmd privileges when used from within a user account - without doing that, Zen-Updater refuses to do anything, while YOU accepts the root password for single sessions just fine.
The idea of zen-updater is to have a tool integrated with the desktop for use. YOU is designed as a tool for power-users that want a complete control over their systems. [snip]
I dunno, but I'd really like to avoid Yast-Qt's package selector... It's unnecesarly complex and I understand why it badly needs documentation.
I'm not sure whether I get the terminology correctly here. Is it correct that the package selector is what I see when launching sw_single.ycp?
If so, it's OK for me. Most of my complaints are directed against what I see when launching online_update.ycp.
That's the same thing technically. There is a package selector widget that has to handle patch mode and package mode.
