Hello all:
This regards to SUSE 10.0: In the package manager of yast several packages are labeled 'protected', eg many of the kde update packages. How could I remove protection and make these packages labeled as the regular normal packages?
Thanks, IG
right click on the "protected-icon" and change to "keep" you can also do the same for all packages shown in a list (be careful!) But as to my eyes this is not really necessary. If you want to update "locked" packages, let's say KDE, search for "kde", then check "packages -> all in this list -> update, if never version is available". You will see that the locked icon changes to the update icon on many packages. After the update they show the locked icon again. As much as I know the "locked" is mainly effective when performing the YOU online-update, then the locked ones will not get touched, but when you do it manually (like in the example above) there's no effect with it. Well, this is just what I experienced, doesn't have to be true ;-) regards Daniel -- Daniel Bauer photographer Basel Switzerland professional photography: http://www.daniel-bauer.com special interest site: http://www.bauer-nudes.com -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq@suse.com
