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
With ability to provide a restricting list of users that can use it and get notification. Any other user, the applet should not even run.
- ability to check for patches only or patches plus updates from buildservice repos (even better if one can define which repos to check)
And modifying that list should not alter the list of repos of yast/zypper. Ie, the list of repos I want to keep an eye on updates may not be the same as the list of all repos configured.
