How can i find the packages that were updated then back date to those packages that are on the disc? I alt-cntrl-f5 to get the CL and tried to uninstall gconf2 but get a slew of dependency errors.
"rpm -q -a --last | less", for instance. But I prefer this:
rpm -q -a --queryformat "%{INSTALLTIME}\t%{INSTALLTIME:day} \ %{BUILDTIME:day} %-30{NAME}\t%15{VERSION}-%-7{RELEASE} \ %25{PACKAGER}\n" | sort | less -S
To install "older" versions from the DVD you will have to "force" them.

Even better is to use --oldpackage instead of force. -- Ken Schneider SuSe since Version 5.2, June 1998 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
