Dear folks,
I'm sure this is a FAQ, but it looks like I'm running against walls when searching for the answer.
I'm using SuSE 10.1 and I would like to know - which patches have been installed (using YOU) - how to uninstall some of those patches
What I need to handle is an accidentally installed kernel update that now bogs up additionally installed sources :-(
Thanks for your help,
As far as I know, YOU no longer installs patch rpms (Those appear to be in the repo, but are not used. Anyone know why? This is also true with the 'smart package manager', which I use). It reinstalls the entire new version rpm. You can go to YaST, find the kernel package and from the Versions tab tell YaST exactly which version you would like to be installed. That is, if you remember the exact version prior to your update. If it is the kernel-source package that troubles you (you said something about sources, but didn't specify what sources), have in mind that you can have multiple versions of that package simultaneously installed. You can remove each of those, if you don't actually need the kernel source for compiling something else. -- Blade hails you... An angel face smiles to me Under a headline of tragedy --Nightwish
