Per,
You keep saying "zypper up"
Yes, I am updating a 12.3 system. My $SUBJ should have said "updating", not "upgrading".
In that case, zypper patch pulls exclusively updates from the official update repos only. It is a safer option than zypper up which can pull from any of the configured repos, and as such is more dangerous.
I sent that to fast. I meant to add that the repos "zypper patch" can pull is only those found at:
http://download.opensuse.org/update/
which you can see is just the official update repos that the opensuse support team maintains.
Greg
Yeah, I usually only play with other repos on systems I'm testing or debugging - for plain office machines like this laptop, I stick to vanilla openSUSE. I appreciate your comments Greg - I've never used "zypper patch", I think I'll be switching to that. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (4.3°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - your free DNS host, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
