requirements. I have a question regarding an updater applet for the GNOME variant. I know that KDE has an updater applet (not the PackageKit one), which provides a list of upgrades based on the repo priorities etc. Is there any such thing for GNOME? The PackageKit version shows dependency issues, as I have several OBS repos (GNOME: STABLE, Evolution, GNOME:Apps etc).

I'd appreciate some assistance on this.

I would recommend not to have another new software updater. If you find something missing in existing updater-applet (based on packagekit) , w.r.t. OBS repositories, why not implement it (instead of creating a new updater) ?

I wish I was a developer, so that I could implement it :( From what I've seen, the gnome-packagekit updater cannot handle the different priorities set in YaST. It treats all of the repos as default and tries to upgrade.
