So the question is will we keep PackageKit in our openSUSE distro or not ? If yes, then the zypp/YaST community should have a look at the latest version and make the zypp backend build and work again. If not, do we have alternatives that we can offer to the users as a small systray utility that notifies them when updates are available ?
Maybe it helps to define what is needed in order to find a tool. And if there is none to understand what to focus on in order to improve the situation with the apps available. - not blocking zypper - maintained graphical front-end (notifier and patch list etc.) - maintained back-end - installing patches/updates without root password - ability to set permissions per user/action regarding package management - ability to check for patches only or patches plus updates from buildservice repos (even better if one can define which repos to check) Sven -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
