That does not help when there are version dependencies involved. For example if you already have X-123.rpm and X-dev-123.rpm installed and you have a directory containing X-456.rpm and X-dev-456, just installing one at a time causes YaST to complain "X-dev-123 requires X = 123, please resolve this dependency problem." With just 2 this is not too bad, but when there are more complex interdependencies it is inconvenient at the very least.
Right! And the only real way around this is either to use the command line or something like kpackage. Also, in many cases you'll most likely have to use the "--nodeps" and "--force" flags as well. Therefore, this can be problematic to say the least. Of course one can always tell YaST2 to ignore the dependencies and then install the packages, but this sometimes gets cranky.
