Yes, it should. I have used that trick before. Normally Suse does not
update rpm's version for a suse version. But when you change the suse
version then your rpm will be lower version than the new version and will
be replced - ugh, I'm not explaining myself too well, am I? O:-)

Ok, I mean that it will be honored till you upgrade the distro.

Do you mean to say that the padlock or taboo setting, which did not work
in suse 8.1, is not working either in suse 8.2? :-O

Too bad :-(
