I have the Build Service as a repository for zyppo to work with. zyppo did not notify me that there was an upgrade to FF. It only notifies of security updates, not every repository. If it notified me every time something rebuilt in all the repositories I have added, that would give ME a bad day. :-) The information came from elsewhere (can't quite remember from where but it certainly was NOT from zyppo). And, as I said, my wife said that FF notified her that there was an upgrade and she elected to have the upgrade install itself. zyppo, or anything Suse, had anything to do with it.
But since the opensuse firefox installs for all users, and therefore in root only writable locations, firefox telling you to update would be useless (or even worse annoying), assuming you do NOT run firefox as root.
In fact, just had a look at what YaST software management (aka zyppo) shows- and it shows that FF v2.0.0.10-0.1 (dated Wed 28 Nov 2007) is available for installation. But I am running v2.0.0.12 which I obtained directly from Mozilla.org.
Do you have the mozilla repository set to refresh, because yours is way out of sync.
Oh! As I also use smart, smart is also showing that the latest FF available for installation is 2.0.0.10-0.1.
So, please, don't say that I "had a bad day".
ok, your day was not of *good* quality :^)
smart installed:

I was pleasantly surprised at how quickly it was available, not sure what is going on with Basil's system. -- Joe Morris Registered Linux user 231871 running openSUSE 10.3 x86_64 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
