Hi,

we will most likely do a first big package manager update tomorrow. The update 
does include a large number of bugfixes and some first performance 
improvements.
 We will do for sure another update later, with further performance 
optimizations and patch rpm support.

 You can test it already, when you add the following URL in the 
YaST "Installation Sources" module and run the YaST "Online Update" module 
afterwards:

  ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/aj/10.1-packagemanagement-update-test/

The online update will only update the package manager at the first run. The 
second run will apply all other patches.

You should also temporary disable your existing update source in this module, 
since we know that the current repository meta data is broken. This will be 
fixed with this update tomorrow as well. All existing updates are in the test 
repository as well.

You can find a README inside the directory above with more details how to test 
this.

Please give us any kind of feedback. We know that we are the package manager 
is not yet yet perfect, but this update should improve the situation a lot :)

bye
adrian
