Feature added by: Sharique Ahmed Farooqui (safknw) Feature #321192, revision 1 Title: Make simpler to update package stack like Kde (all Ds)stack, php stack openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Sharique Ahmed Farooqui (safknw) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: This is issue more relevant to tumbleweed and also for the users of factory/stable/current repo of specific stacks. I'm using tumbleweed. As a user KDE I want to have latest stable release of KDE and plasma, but I don't want to upgrade all other packages, so I didn't run `zypper up`, instead I open package manager and search for kde and plasma package and updated them. Unfortunately I forgot to update some important packaged and after completion of installation when I restarted X/KDE, it is broken, plasma shell is not appearing. So there should be a meta package, which I upgrade/update it should update/upgrade all installed package of that particular stack and it should not install any other package that is outside of dependencies of installed packages (ie. recommended packages). Pattens are there in OpenSuse, but they are useful only for installation package stack, but when I updated pattern, it only update pattern meta package, not all packages included in pattern. May be we can tweak patterns a bit to added updating whole stack. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/321192
