No, it is along 'zypper up -t package'.

In principle:

zypper up -t package should be OK if you have already installed RC, as the 
package set and dependencies are almost unchanged.

'zypper dup' also handles e.g. package renames etc, including evaluating 
hardware dependencies. This is much more dangerous as it might trigger large 
changes if any of your numerous repositories goes ahead of Factory. OTOH, is 
you are upgrading from e.g. Beta1, I would go for zypper dup.

So, the answer is 'it depends' ;-)
