Re: [opensuse] repository priority in yast (oS 11.2)

Hello list readers:

According to man zypper:

-p, --priority <positive-integer>
Set priority of the repository. Priority of 1 is the highest,
the higher the number the lower the priority. Default prior-
ity is 99. Packages from repositories with higher priority
will be preferred even in case there is a higher installable
version available in the repository with a lower priority.

But in yast software manager when I click update for a package the selected
repo has the highest number (ie the lowest priority according to the above.)

Is this a bug or is it on purpose (that the gui interprets priority in the
opposite manner)?

Thanks,

Istvan



I have found, that if a New repositories that held packages which
also appeared in opensuse repository, neither the priority of the repository
nor the version numbers of the package made any difference UNTIL I clicked
that link at the top of yast to switch system packages to the new repository.
