This seems incredible, so I said "no". Can anyone tell me what the heck zypper is trying to do to my system?
It is trying to update things. ... zypper dup removes one from this odd new thing in 11.2. You get all the updates in the repos you have enabled. Which, IMHO, is what I would think anyone wanted.
Yes, it seems obvious -- except that zypper appears to want to set me back to kde 4.1. I'm at 4.3.1 now, and am thinking about going at least to 4.3.4.
If zypper had said anything about then upgrading me again, and if it had not implied that I'd lose all those applications, I wouldn't hesitate. I can't believe that's what it really wants to do, but...
I am using 4.3.4 (KDE 4.3.4) "release 2" via zypper. It must depend on your KDE repositories. I have: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/43/openSUSE_11.2 And that seems to work. Bit of an aside here: I still think the KDE repository naming method borders on the insane. As in: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/KDE4:/Community/openSUSE_11.2... It is inconsistent where in the repo name the '43' finds itself. Yes, I know each repo has a life of it's own. With different developers, and different rules. But the repo naming strategy is odd. No flames wanted. I am sure there is a system. Unfortunately, everyone seems to have their own. -- Roger Oberholtzer OPQ Systems / Ramböll RST Ramböll Sverige AB Krukmakargatan 21 P.O.
