I choose to run "dup" for Tw installs and "up" for servers.
Alright, OK, Oh Great Guru. Here's the question:
Yes Bazil
I don't run a server but have TW installed on a laptop as I already stated.
I haven't updated TW for some days but a few minutes ago decided to update it.
I ran 'zypper refresh' and then input first 'zypper dup' then 'zypper up' but did not actually run these.
'zypper dup' produced the following output:
182 packages to upgrade 3 packages to downgrade 18 new packages to install 18 packages to be removed 72 packages to change vendor
'zypper up' produced the following output:
65 package updates will not be installed 12 new packages to be installed 116 packages to be upgraded
Dear Guru,
Which should I run, 'zypper dup' or 'zypper up'?
Or should I go back to using Windows?
Dear Bazil, You already have the answer, a personal choice which you control: <quote>

from the docs, up upgrades per ver num but does not change vendor unless config is changed dup upgrades to vendor with greatest ver num but a greater ver num does not always mean a "later/newer" version between repos As Paul Harvey once said (or twice or ...) "And now you know the rest of the story." It remains: Your choice. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
